    Summary: Malicious code in strapi-plugin-plsresh-meeb (npm)

    Details: Source: amazon-inspector (ae27e46ab1160942d8d569f2237b9890a5f0a2cac36171ced091678c2a876c44) The package's postinstall lifecycle script runs a bash reverse shell that opens a TCP connection to the hardcoded host 14.225.210.85 on port 443 and binds an interactive shell to that socket, granting whoever operates that endpoint full interactive command execution on the installer's host. Execution is automatic on `npm install` via scripts.postinstall, requires no user action, and also writes a marker file under /tmp to confirm the callback. The package's own description self-labels as a reverse shell payload for Strapi.
