Malicious package in @atlassianlabs/jql-editor-connect

Long story short: this is a false positive.

The react-intl-next is actually overridden by a either a “resolutions” entry or by setting the version to npm:react-intl@^5.18.1 in all the Atlassian packages that have a dependency on this. The problem is that Snyk does not pick up on this as it only scans the actual dependencies and not the resolutions.

It would be better if Atlassian just updates the packages to use react-intl directly instead of redirecting it, but it seems that Atlassian has no incentive to do so.
