Which versions of supermine are malicious?

Every published version of supermine on PyPI is considered malicious. Remove the package entirely.

How do I remediate supermine if I installed it?

supermine is built to steal secrets, so assume every credential the build or runtime could read is compromised. Remove it from your project and lockfile, then rotate ALL exposed secrets — npm/registry tokens, cloud keys, CI/CD secrets, SSH keys, and any .env values — from a known-clean machine. Audit logs for unauthorized use of those credentials.

I already installed supermine — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If supermine 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 supermine across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for supermine (all published versions).
