Malicious code in strapi-plugin-persh-meeb (npm)

CISA KEV lists vulnerabilities known to be exploited. FIRST EPSS estimates the likelihood of exploitation in the next 30 days. An unavailable score does not mean zero risk.

No exploitation or prediction data is available here for these CVEs. This does not mean they are safe or unlikely to be exploited.

--- _-= Per source details. Do not edit below this line.=-_ ## Source: amazon-inspector (67ce68eeb9a309b5fff512e24a1b8f4c12fb171c0752d6a04293a4e72c805088) [email protected] ships a postinstall.js (also declared as the package `main`) that runs automatically on `npm install`. The script spawns a Python one-liner that opens a TCP socket to the hardcoded bare IP 14.225.210.85 on port 443 (with:80 also referenced), duplicates the socket over stdio, and calls `pty.spawn("sh")`, giving the remote host an interactive shell on the installer's machine. Retries up to 5 times at 10-second intervals. Execution is gated by a hostname allowlist check (`os.hostname() === 'ubuntu-fc-uvm'`) and logs to `/tmp/postinstall-revshell.log`, consistent with a targeted red-team or victim-tuned implant. The destination is a bare IP unrelated to any Strapi or plugin-publisher infrastructure, and the package name resembles the Strapi plugin ecosystem.
