Why flagged

Prebuilt binaries downloaded from UCSC's official genome browser download server (hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu), which is the project's own infrastructure, with sha256 checksums provided; the main concern is that these are unversioned upstream binaries that could change silently, but the source is the official UCSC distribution host, not an unrelated third-party swappable location.

Triggered rules

Low AI review downgraded a static finding llm_review

The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 75%): Prebuilt binaries downloaded from UCSC's official genome browser download server (hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu), which is the project's own infrastructure, with sha256 checksums provided; the main concern is that these are unversioned upstream binaries that could change silently, but the source is the official UCSC distribution host, not an unrelated third-party swappable location.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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