strapi-plugin-ccsuc-meebnpm
strapi-plugin-ccsuc-meeb is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-16209) that executes malicious code on install (malicious version 3.6.8). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in strapi-plugin-ccsuc-meeb (npm)
What this malware does
The package's postinstall lifecycle script (postinstall.js, wired via scripts.postinstall in package.json) checks the installer's hostname against a hardcoded allowlist value ('ubuntu-fc-uvm') and, on match, spawns /bin/bash with a reverse-shell one-liner opening an interactive TCP shell to 14.225.210.85:80. The script uses child_process.exec, includes retry logic and a 60-second timeout, and runs automatically on npm install. The hostname gate indicates a targeted-dropper shape aimed at specific installer environments; on matching hosts the operator obtains full interactive command execution on the installer's machine.

Detection & response playbook
Malicious packageFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for strapi-plugin-ccsuc-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-ccsuc-meeb across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
Remove strapi-plugin-ccsuc-meeb from your project and lockfile, then assume any secrets accessible to the build or runtime were exposed: rotate API keys, tokens, and credentials, and audit for unexpected outbound activity or persistence.
Did it already run?
If strapi-plugin-ccsuc-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.
How O3 protects you
O3 blocks strapi-plugin-ccsuc-meeb before install through its supply-chain scanner, and if it has already run, detects and severs the exfiltration or C2 callback at runtime through L7 egress monitoring and eBPF.
