LOW

Why flagged The source is a tarball from a historical but non-whitelisted host; however, it contains only a small Perl script and related files for generating fonts.scale, with no evidence of malicious content or remote code execution, and the package builds from verifiable source 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 a historical but non-whitelisted host; however, it contains only a small Perl script and related files for generating fonts.scale, with no evidence of malicious content or remote code execution, and the package builds from verifiable source 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1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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, …).
