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\u0027s machine. Retries up to 5 times at 10-second intervals. Execution is gated by a hostname allowlist check (`os.hostname() === \u0027ubuntu-fc-uvm\u0027`) 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.\n",
