MEDIUM

Why flagged The PKGBUILD downloads a prebuilt binary .deb from lideying.cn, which is not the upstream project host (gitee.com/xiaojinpro/xj-gomoku). This is a personal/third-party Chinese domain hosting an executable artifact (a GTK/WebKit2 gomoku game binary). The package installs this binary directly without building from source. While a sha256sum is provided, the host is not the canonical upstream, meaning if lideying.cn is compromised or the file is swapped, users would execute arbitrary code. The WebKit2GTK dependency also suggests this is an Electron/web-based app with significant attack surface. This is a genuine supply-chain concern: an executed binary from an unofficial, non-project-owned host.
