xcursor-neutralplus
The package downloads a cursor theme tarball from a Wayback Machine archive, which is non-standard but used due to upstream link instability; the content is non-executable data, and the checksum is verified, limiting risk to cosmetic changes at worst.
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 package downloads a cursor theme tarball from a Wayback Machine archive, which is non-standard but used due to upstream link instability; the content is non-executable data, and the checksum is verified, limiting risk to cosmetic changes at worst.
2 higher static findings superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)
