LOW
View on AUR ↗
Why flagged The source is a prebuilt Linux client tarball from the game's official CDN, which is a non-whitelisted but project-owned host; the worst case of a swapped artifact would be code execution, but the source is directly from the project's official infrastructure, making it a standard AUR package with low risk.

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 prebuilt Linux client tarball from the game's official CDN, which is a non-whitelisted but project-owned host; the worst case of a swapped artifact would be code execution, but the source is directly from the project's official infrastructure, making it a standard AUR package with low risk.

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, …).
