Why flagged

Prebuilt binaries downloaded directly from UCSC's official genome browser download server (hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu) with pinned sha256 checksums; the host is the project's own official infrastructure, not a personal/swappable storage service, so supply-chain risk is low, though unversioned upstream binaries mean checksums could silently drift on future installs.

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 70%): Prebuilt binaries downloaded directly from UCSC's official genome browser download server (hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu) with pinned sha256 checksums; the host is the project's own official infrastructure, not a personal/swappable storage service, so supply-chain risk is low, though unversioned upstream binaries mean checksums could silently drift on future installs.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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