CurseForge is a lot like Reddit in this aspect: it doesn't really care about the users, at most it reacts to something that annoyed a lot of them to the point that they might leave. So this is probably not the last time that malware found its way to its modpacks.
Modrinth is probably a better alternative for some [all? a few? dunno] users.
I'd argue that they actually responded to this quickly and appropriately. They didn't try to sweep anything under the rug and provided tools to see if you're affected.

If you haven't seen it, Curseforge put out some detection tools in response to the recent malware discovery. | Spyke
