On install, postinstall.js checks os.hostname() against \u0027ubuntu-fc-uvm\u0027 and then invokes child_process.exec on an inline python3 one-liner that opens a TCP socket to the hardcoded remote host 14.225.210.85:80, dups the socket onto stdin/stdout/stderr, and calls pty.spawn(\u0027sh\u0027), yielding an interactive reverse shell on the installer\u0027s machine. A retry loop attempts up to five reconnects. The hostname gate is a targeting/anti-analysis check, not a safety limit. The package name and Strapi-plugin framing are a cover story; no legitimate plugin code is present.\n",
