stremio-web
The pnpm install of express@4 is a direct dependency needed for building the project, matches the upstream Dockerfile, and is not an undeclared external package in practice.
Triggered rules
llm_review
The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (qwen/qwen3-235b-a22b-2507) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The pnpm install of express@4 is a direct dependency needed for building the project, matches the upstream Dockerfile, and is not an undeclared external package in practice.
1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)
npm_install_external
Runs `npm/yarn/pnpm install <package>` for a package not in source=(), pulling unpinned, unreviewed code at build time. Severity downgraded: the package declares/looks like a Node.js consumer, where build-time installs are expected.
