Why flagged

Installs a prebuilt binary from download.mikrotik.com, which is MikroTik's own official download infrastructure, with a pinned SHA256 checksum; the non-standard host is the vendor's own domain, not a personal/swappable host.

Triggered rules

Low Few votes, recently uploaded zero_votes_recent

Uploaded within the last 14 days with 2 or fewer community votes — little peer review so far.

Low AI review downgraded a static finding llm_review

The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 80%): Installs a prebuilt binary from download.mikrotik.com, which is MikroTik's own official download infrastructure, with a pinned SHA256 checksum; the non-standard host is the vendor's own domain, not a personal/swappable host.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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