Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt .deb binary from a non-whitelisted but project-related CDN; while the host is not on a standard whitelist, it is plausibly official, yet the lack of verifiable source code and use of a binary-only distribution creates 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, …).
