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-2026-17427/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-17427/index.md)","id":"MAL-2026-17427","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-17427/index.md","name":"MAL-2026-17427","record":{"aliases":[],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":null,"cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"ai-workshop-maa15-radio is a dependency-confusion package: it takes a name that looks like an internal project, uses an inflated version (100.0.0) so it outranks private-registry versions, and runs `node setup.js || true` as a preinstall script on npm install. setup.js sends the hostname, username, working directory, OS, architecture, Node.js version and configured npm registry, with a per-package tracking token, in an HTTPS POST to `https://s85r5k14qk.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/prod/hook`.
