MEDIUM

Why flagged The package downloads a prebuilt binary from a non-whitelisted host (download.speedata.de), which is not a common forge or official CDN, creating a supply-chain risk if the host were compromised or the download redirected.

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, …).
