    Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for dhpgemrdhs79029 (9 malicious versions).

  2. If you installed it — respond

    Remove dhpgemrdhs79029 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.

  3. Did it already run?
