Which versions of @expue/vue3-renderer are malicious?

The following npm versions of @expue/vue3-renderer are flagged malicious: 0.0.3-alpha.0. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate @expue/vue3-renderer if I installed it?

Remove @expue/vue3-renderer from your project and lockfile, then assume any secrets accessible to the build or runtime were exposed: rotate API keys, tokens, and credentials, and audit for unexpected outbound activity or persistence.

I already installed @expue/vue3-renderer — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If @expue/vue3-renderer was installed, its post-install payload may already have run. Removing the package does not undo that — check outbound connections and credential use from the install window onward.

Yes — @expue/vue3-renderer is associated with the RLMA-2024-00070, RLUA-2024-05920 campaign. Packages in the same campaign often share infrastructure and payloads, so check whether any related packages are also in your dependency tree.

How do I find @expue/vue3-renderer across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for @expue/vue3-renderer (version 0.0.3-alpha.0).
