Why flagged

The PKGBUILD downloads a prebuilt JAR file from cdn.probablyaserver.com, which is not an official distribution channel (the official site is sleeksnap.com). A JAR is executed code (run by the JVM on the user's system), so a compromised or substituted JAR could execute arbitrary code. The MD5 checksum provides only weak integrity assurance and does not establish trust in the source host. This is a genuine supply-chain concern: if the CDN host is compromised or the domain is abandoned/hijacked, a malicious JAR could be served. This fits the medium severity definition of executed code from an unofficial/personal host.

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, …).
