Why flagged

The source is a prebuilt tarball from a university-hosted download URL that matches the project's official site; while the host is not a standard code forge, it is plausibly official, and the package installs static files and a wrapper script without executing remote code or exhibiting malicious behavior.

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-07-25) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The source is a prebuilt tarball from a university-hosted download URL that matches the project's official site; while the host is not a standard code forge, it is plausibly official, and the package installs static files and a wrapper script without executing remote code or exhibiting malicious behavior.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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