Why flagged
The package downloads a prebuilt AppImage from a non-standard, non-whitelisted host (voiden.md), which is an unverifiable executable binary; if the host were compromised, the binary could be silently replaced with malicious code.
Triggered rules
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, …).
