Who publishes this

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

  • org.sdrangel.SDRangel claims the domain sdrangel.org; only its owner can prove that
    publisher:namespace
  • fetches from www.fftw.org over unencrypted http: anyone on the path can swap the bytes (x5)
    source:insecure-url
  • git source tracks a moving branch: what gets built can change without the manifest changing
    source:unpinned
