Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt .deb from a non-whitelisted host (downloads.remote.it), which is not a standard code forge or vendor domain, and the checksum is provided but not independently verifiable, creating a supply-chain risk if the host were compromised.

Triggered rules

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, …).

PKGBUILD:17 source=("https://downloads.remote.it/desktop/v${pkgver}/Remote.It-Installer-amd64.deb")
