LOW
View on AUR ↗
Why flagged The source is a prebuilt Linux binary from MikroTik's official download domain, which is plausibly the project's own release infrastructure; despite the non-whitelisted host, the download is from the vendor's official site and the checksum is verified, limiting supply-chain risk to low.

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-2507) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The source is a prebuilt Linux binary from MikroTik's official download domain, which is plausibly the project's own release infrastructure; despite the non-whitelisted host, the download is from the vendor's official site and the checksum is verified, limiting supply-chain risk to low.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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