strapi-plugin-conresh-meebnpm
strapi-plugin-conresh-meeb is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-16229) that typosquats a legitimate package to trick installs (malicious version 3.6.8). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in strapi-plugin-conresh-meeb (npm)
What this malware does
The package declares a postinstall lifecycle hook ("postinstall": "node postinstall.js") that executes on every npm install. postinstall.js invokes child_process.exec with a bash reverse-shell command connecting the installer's host to the hardcoded remote endpoint 14.225.210.85:80 via /dev/tcp, redirecting stdio to give the remote party an interactive shell on the installer's machine. Execution is gated by a hostname allowlist (matching 'ubuntu-fc-uvm'), and a retry loop plus a log file at /tmp/postinstall-revshell.log indicate a persistent, targeted deployment. The plugin name mimics the Strapi plugin namespace but ships no plugin functionality relevant to that framing.

Detection & response playbook
TyposquatFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for strapi-plugin-conresh-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-conresh-meeb across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
strapi-plugin-conresh-meeb is a typosquat — you almost certainly intended a legitimately-named package. Remove strapi-plugin-conresh-meeb, install the correct package, and rotate any secrets exposed during the install since post-install scripts may have already run.
Did it already run?
If strapi-plugin-conresh-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-conresh-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.
