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. If the package is not used anywhere, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-13824/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-13824/index.md)","id":"MAL-2026-13824","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-13824/index.md","name":"MAL-2026-13824","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-ghqw-mfq6-xh36"],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":null,"cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"The tarball contains only package.json and index.html. package.json declares no lifecycle scripts (preinstall/install/postinstall/prepare) and sets main to index.html, which Node cannot execute via require()/import. index.html mimics a Cloudflare Turnstile challenge and, on the challenge callback, builds a redirect URL via obfuscated string concatenation (new URL('https://mi'+...)) and calls window.location.assign to navigate the browser away.
