The maintainer seems to have abandoned it: https://github.com/indutny/elliptic/issues

I wrote a shim library and posted it on their issue tracker: https://github.com/indutny/elliptic/issues/343

Unfortunately, adoption seems slow. I'm talking with a few people about how to move the ecosystem to something more secure like noble-curves, but it's tricky.

If you really feel like helping the ecosystem update, you could file issues/PRs for all of the downstream NPM modules to switch to your shim library.

Remember to tell them what the problem is and how your library solves it.
