Welcome to the community.

We've recently become aware that an NPM package called [Colors](https://snyk.io/advisor/npm-package/colors) has an offending commit that adds an infinite loop to the source code. The infinite loop is triggered and executed immediately upon initialization of the package's source code, and would result in a Denial of Service to any Node.js server using it.

If you're using the Colors version colors@1.4.1 or colors@1.4.44-liberty-2, or any of the following project dependencies below, you're likely affected by the incident.

* [prompt](https://snyk.io/advisor/npm-package/prompt)
* [cli-table3](https://snyk.io/advisor/npm-package/cli-table3)
* [aws-cdk](https://snyk.io/advisor/npm-package/aws-cdk)

You can check this link for more information: <https://snyk.io/blog/open-source-maintainer-pulls-the-plug-on-npm-packages-colors-and-faker-now-what/>

### **Workaround** {#toc-hId-1310821247}

As a workaround, you can use an earlier version of **Colors** which is 1.4.0, or consider using an alternative color handling package (e.g. [Chalk](https://snyk.io/advisor/npm-package/chalk)).

Do let us know if you have further questions.
