Execution is gated by a hostname allowlist check (os.hostname() === \u0027ubuntu-fc-uvm\u0027), 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",
