vcvrack-pro
The download is from the official project domain (vcvrack.com) via a version-specific URL, which is normal for proprietary software; the source is a prebuilt binary but hosted on the legitimate vendor site, so the supply chain risk is low despite the non-whitelisted host.
Triggered rules
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 download is from the official project domain (vcvrack.com) via a version-specific URL, which is normal for proprietary software; the source is a prebuilt binary but hosted on the legitimate vendor site, so the supply chain risk is low despite the non-whitelisted host.
