Permissions

3 permissions weaken the sandbox. Flatsonar asks before installing.

    --socket=x11
  • full access to your home folder
    --filesystem=home
  • Wayland display
    --socket=wayland
  • network
    --share=network

Who publishes this

Nobody has confirmed that the publisher controls this app id. Flatsonar warns before installing.

  • packaged by github.com/egrath, not by the com.github namespace owner; it does build the owner's code from https://github.com/steveicarus/iverilog/archive/refs/tags/v11_0.tar.gz
    publisher:namespace
  • fetches from ftp.gnu.org over unencrypted http: anyone on the path can swap the bytes (x2)
    source:insecure-url
  • git source tracks a moving branch: what gets built can change without the manifest changing (x2)
    source:unpinned
  • the build has network access: it can download things the manifest does not list
    xdot:build-options:--share=network
  • fetches from the network during the build (nothing to audit beforehand): pip3 install --prefix=/app xdot numpy
    xdot:build-commands
