Malicious code in commonweb-balance (npm)

commonweb-balance@99.9.1 is an empty shell package (empty index.js, no functionality) whose only effect on install is resolving its single declared runtime dependency ltidisafe from a direct tarball URL at https://ltidi.storage.googleapis.com/depenconf/ltidisafe-3.4.5.tgz rather than from the npm registry. On npm install, npm downloads and installs whatever bytes are served at that URL into the installer's node_modules, bringing that code into the dependency tree outside npm registry review. The GCS bucket is publisher-unrelated (no matching author or homepage metadata on the host package) and mutable — whoever controls the bucket can change the served tarball contents at any time without republishing to npm. The host package has no legitimate function other than to pull this out-of-registry dependency into installers, matching the dependency-chain dropper / lure pattern.
