Every odd composite integer has an Euler witness. For a nonsquarefree integer, a base congruent to modulo a repeated prime factor fails the Euler congruence by the binomial theorem. For a squarefree integer, use the Chinese remainder theorem to choose a base that is a quadratic nonresidue modulo one prime factor and modulo another. Its Jacobi symbol is , while its power is modulo the second factor.
