Which versions of enquriers are malicious?

Every published version of enquriers on npm is considered malicious. Remove the package entirely.

How do I remediate enquriers if I installed it?

Remove enquriers 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 network activity or persistence. Use O3 Security's dependency scanner to confirm the package and its artifacts are fully purged across your stack.

Is enquriers part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — enquriers is associated with the GHSA-c8vc-qqjp-wg87 campaign. Packages in the same campaign often share infrastructure and payloads, so check whether any related packages are also in your dependency tree.

Can O3 Security detect enquriers in my codebase?

Yes. O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, blocking enquriers and packages like it before any post-install script runs.
