Why flagged The package downloads a font and a license file from dafont.com and the project's site; fonts are non-executable data, so even if the host is non-standard, the risk is limited to data tampering, not code execution.

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 font and a license file from dafont.com and the project's site; fonts are non-executable data, so even if the host is non-standard, the risk is limited to data tampering, not code execution.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)
MEDIUM source=() URL on a non-standard host source_untrusted_domain
