Which versions of numpy-selenium are malicious?

The following PyPI versions of numpy-selenium are flagged malicious: 5.20.19. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate numpy-selenium if I installed it?

Remove numpy-selenium 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 numpy-selenium — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If numpy-selenium 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.

How do I find numpy-selenium across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for numpy-selenium (version 5.20.19).
