If it is present, remove it, regenerate the lockfile with the project's package manager, and replace whatever it was used for.\n3. List any CI runners, developer machines or containers that installed it, so their secrets can be rotated.\n4.

The inline script is obfuscator.io-obfuscated and, after the Turnstile widget completes, reconstructs a URL from an encoded string array and calls window.location.replace to redirect the browser. package.json declares no preinstall/install/postinstall/prepare lifecycle hooks and there is no JavaScript entry point, so npm install and require()/import of this package do not execute the payload; the redirect only fires if a user opens the HTML file in a browser. The behavior is inconsistent with a normal npm library and is consistent with using npm as a hosting channel for a browser-side redirect (phishing/traffic-monetization shape), but it does not attack the installer's machine, filesystem, environment, credentials, or network at install or require time.\n\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
