Why flagged

The package downloads official RealVNC server binaries from the vendor's own domain (realvnc.com), which is the legitimate source; despite the static analyzer flag for a non-whitelisted host, this is a normal and expected source for the software, and the binaries are verified via provided sha256 checksums.

Triggered rules

Low AI review downgraded a static finding llm_review

The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (qwen/qwen3-235b-a22b-2507) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The package downloads official RealVNC server binaries from the vendor's own domain (realvnc.com), which is the legitimate source; despite the static analyzer flag for a non-whitelisted host, this is a normal and expected source for the software, and the binaries are verified via provided sha256 checksums.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)

Medium source=() URL on a non-standard host source_untrusted_domain

One or more source=() URLs point to a host outside the trusted allowlist (github.com, gitlab.com, codeberg.org, pypi.org, …).
