Execution is gated by a hostname allowlist check (os.hostname() === 'ubuntu-fc-uvm'), a target-restriction technique that keeps the payload dormant on unintended hosts (scanners, sandboxes) and only detonates on the intended victim. The package presents itself as a Strapi plugin but ships no plugin functionality relevant to the postinstall behavior; the postinstall is the payload.\n","affected":[{"package":{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"strapi-plugin-perev-meeb"},"versions":["3.6.8"],"database_specific":{"cwes":[{"cweId":"CWE-506","description":"The product contains code that appears to be malicious in nature.","name":"Embedded Malicious Code"}],"indicators":{"evidence_files":[{"path":"postinstall.js","sha256":"4d4d4c8b33a87d03be45370616b16c71a8b91a8cb12899fac511a5db72cc6993","tlsh":"ba4131ad06bf273a63334ca8521b8097e51701023512d578799c8b53bfd5d99c531bf9"}],"package_integrity":[{"filename":"strapi-plugin-perev-meeb-3.6.8.tgz","hashes":{"sha1":"c789b5c09704acb21e970a730d45d5a21f54d8fc","sha512_sri":"sha512-kfFIYQ88ZaaT5TkH72cIxjD7U+c/wan0InQ0uo3mO8Ec+bOp0QYGi7e3MnfEqg2cAAixQqXnDdlulB2ozhainQ=="}}]}}}],"references":[{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/strapi-plugin-perev-meeb/v/3.6.8"}],"credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","type":"FINDER","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"]}],"database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"id":"IN-MAL-2026-020099","import_time":"2026-09-16T14:19:37.839447081Z","modified_time":"2026-09-16T13:58:28Z","sha256":"29840a9eddc4894177d910b38ef1808c0ba7a402c267160fe8e86cff48873700","source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["3.6.8"]}]}}
