LOW

Why flagged Downloads a prebuilt AppImage from api.wooting.io, which is the official Wooting vendor API domain, with a pinned sha256 checksum; the source is plausibly official vendor infrastructure, not a personal/swappable host, making this a normal prebuilt-binary 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 (anthropic/claude-4.6-sonnet-20260217) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 80%): Downloads a prebuilt AppImage from api.wooting.io, which is the official Wooting vendor API domain, with a pinned sha256 checksum; the source is plausibly official vendor infrastructure, not a personal/swappable host, making this a normal prebuilt-binary AUR package with low risk.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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