Why flagged

The pip install is for a specific, pinned version of a known dependency (hvac==0.10.11) from PyPI, not an untrusted external source, and is part of building the package in a controlled environment; the risk is low as it does not involve unverified or remote code execution beyond standard build practices.

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 pip install is for a specific, pinned version of a known dependency (hvac==0.10.11) from PyPI, not an untrusted external source, and is part of building the package in a controlled environment; the risk is low as it does not involve unverified or remote code execution beyond standard build practices.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)
Medium pip install of an external package pip_install_external

`pip install <package>` fetches an unpinned package from PyPI at build time, outside source=() and makepkg's checksums.
