Problem
Proprietary ReversingLabs malware detection algorithms have determined that the software package has one or more malicious dependencies. Some software dependencies may be optional, and could be installed or downloaded only if a certain pre-defined condition is met. When software dependencies are confirmed to be found within the software package, additional issues might also be reported. The detection was made by either a static byte signature, software component identity, or a complete file hash. This malware detection method is considered highly accurate, and can typically attribute malware to previously discovered software supply chain attacks.Prevalence in npm community

Next steps
Inspect behaviors exhibited by the detected software components.
If the software behaviors differ from expected, investigate the build and release environment for software supply chain compromise.
Revise the use of components that raise these alarms. If you can't deprecate those components, make sure they are well-documented.
Avoid using this software package until it is vetted as safe.
