View on AUR ↗
Why flagged Downloads a prebuilt AppImage from free-astro.org, which is the official Siril project domain, with a sha512 checksum provided; this is the project's own official release infrastructure, so the risk is low despite being a prebuilt binary from a non-whitelisted host.

Triggered rules

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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