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-2026-17270/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-17270/index.md)","id":"MAL-2026-17270","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-17270/index.md","name":"MAL-2026-17270","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gxrr-r3q5-4429"],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":null,"cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"@hrmony/organisationsverwaltung 7.99.0 executes credential-theft code at the top level of index.js, so simply requiring or importing the package triggers exfiltration.
