The only change in this .SRCINFO hunk is a version bump from 2.1.6 to 2.1.7. No source URLs, checksums, install scripts, build commands, permissions, or package metadata that would affect trust boundaries were changed in the reviewed diff. Based on this hunk alone, there is no evident security impact.

Comment

The change only bumps the upstream Etcher binary package from v2.1.6 to v2.1.7 and updates the corresponding SHA-256 checksum in .SRCINFO. The source remains an HTTPS GitHub release asset from the official upstream project, with no new build steps, scripts, or privilege-related metadata introduced. No additional red flags are present in this diff alone.

Comment

The change is a straightforward version bump from 2.1.6 to 2.1.7 with the corresponding source checksum update. The source remains the upstream GitHub release over HTTPS, there are no new build steps, no added scripts, and no changes to install-time behavior or permissions. I did not find any security-relevant red flags in this diff.

The change is a straightforward version bump from 2.1.6 to 2.1.7 with an updated SHA-256 for the upstream release artifact. The source remains the official GitHub releases URL over HTTPS, there are no new build-time downloads, scripts, privilege changes, or packaging logic changes in the diff. No security red flags are introduced by this hunk alone.
