x86_64-apple-darwin-binutils
The source is a standard GNU binutils tarball downloaded via rsync from a university mirror; building from official project sources is normal for AUR packages, and the host, while not whitelisted, is a legitimate academic mirror.
Triggered rules
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 standard GNU binutils tarball downloaded via rsync from a university mirror; building from official project sources is normal for AUR packages, and the host, while not whitelisted, is a legitimate academic mirror.
1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)
source_untrusted_domain
One or more source=() URLs point to a host outside the trusted allowlist (github.com, gitlab.com, codeberg.org, pypi.org, …).
