Why flagged

The source is a tarball from the project's official domain (syncany.org), used to build and install the application; despite the host not being whitelisted, it is plausibly the project's own, and the package installs only static Java binaries and scripts without executing remote code.

Triggered rules

Low AI review downgraded a static finding llm_review

The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (qwen/qwen3-235b-a22b-07-25) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The source is a tarball from the project's official domain (syncany.org), used to build and install the application; despite the host not being whitelisted, it is plausibly the project's own, and the package installs only static Java binaries and scripts without executing remote code.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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