View on AUR ↗
Why flagged The source is a tarball from a non-whitelisted but plausible archival host (fossies.org), which hosts open-source software; the package builds from unmodified upstream source, and the installed files are standard build artifacts with no indication of malicious content or remote code execution.

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 non-whitelisted but plausible archival host (fossies.org), which hosts open-source software; the package builds from unmodified upstream source, and the installed files are standard build artifacts with no indication of malicious content or remote code execution.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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