View on AUR ↗
Why flagged The package downloads a RAR archive from the official vendor's website (xprintertech.com), extracts a Debian package, and installs CUPS drivers and PPD files; the source is from the project's own domain, making it a legitimate build process despite the non-whitelisted host.

Triggered rules

LOW AI review downgraded a static finding llm_review

The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (qwen/qwen3-235b-a22b-2507) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The package downloads a RAR archive from the official vendor's website (xprintertech.com), extracts a Debian package, and installs CUPS drivers and PPD files; the source is from the project's own domain, making it a legitimate build process despite the non-whitelisted 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1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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, …).
