Description
The npm package '@fmr-ap149494/apex-base-component' version 99.9.1 is identified as malicious. It contains an empty stub but declares a dependency via an unpinned HTTPS tarball URL outside the npm registry, which can execute arbitrary lifecycle scripts during installation. This behavior matches a dependency confusion attack pattern. The package communicates with a domain linked to malicious activity. Any system with this package installed should be considered fully compromised, and all secrets and keys on that system should be rotated immediately. Removal of the package alone may not eliminate all malicious software.
