Why flagged

This package installs a prebuilt proprietary binary (a .deb) from a non-standard Wangsu CDN host (download-sdwan.wangsu.com) that is plausibly the vendor's own infrastructure, but the software is a closed-source Zero Trust/VPN client with privileged binaries (setuid chrome-sandbox, root-level daemon SecureLink_Client -install) that cannot be audited; the checksum is present so the specific artifact is pinned, but the host is not an official well-known release domain and the package has few votes, making supply-chain substitution a realistic concern.

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, …).
