Why flagged This PKGBUILD downloads a prebuilt binary from a personal/unofficial host (tlapbot.chimmie.k.vu) — specifically from a path that looks like a Debian/Ubuntu APT repository dist path, repurposed to serve a raw ELF binary for Arch Linux. The binary is installed directly to /usr/bin and made executable. The checksum is 'SKIP', meaning there is zero integrity verification. The pkgver is derived post-download from the binary's SHA1, which is a creative but ineffective integrity measure (it only tracks changes, does not verify against a known-good value). The host is a personal domain (k.vu subdomain), not an official upstream release host, GitHub releases, or any recognized mirror. This is a textbook supply-chain risk: a compromised or malicious personal host serving an unverified executable binary that gets installed system-wide. The cheaper model's MEDIUM rating is correct.
