Why flagged

The package downloads a 7z archive from a non-whitelisted but project-related host (romhacking.it) which is used to extract and install static data and a Java application; the source is not executed directly, and the host, while not standard, is plausibly associated with the ROM hacking community, making the risk low despite the non-standard domain.

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 package downloads a 7z archive from a non-whitelisted but project-related host (romhacking.it) which is used to extract and install static data and a Java application; the source is not executed directly, and the host, while not standard, is plausibly associated with the ROM hacking community, making the risk low despite the non-standard domain.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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