Malicious code in @bx-ui-framework/authentication (npm)

package.json at line 14 declares a runtime dependency microfrontend whose source is a bare HTTPS URL (https://repo.artifactorymanager.com/bx-ui-framework/authentication) rather than an npm registry version range. On npm install, npm fetches whatever bytes that host returns and installs them as a dependency, running any lifecycle scripts contained in the fetched artifact. There is no version pin, no integrity hash, and no signature check, so the delivered content is fully controlled by whoever operates repo.artifactorymanager.com, and can change between installs. The shipped package itself is a minimal stub, so this manifest entry is effectively the entire installable payload. The dependency key (microfrontend) does not match the package's own name, and the host domain is unrelated to any npm-scope publisher identity for @bx-ui-framework.
