Avoid using all malicious instances of the strapi-plugin-debug-tools package.
Overview
strapi-plugin-debug-tools is a malicious package.
This package contains malicious code that conceals a command-and-control agent and credential harvester. A malicious actor published a coordinated campaign of thirty-six packages disguised as community Strapi CMS plugins. These packages aren't affiliated with the official Strapi project, which is scoped under @strapi/. Using unscoped names is a social engineering tactic, and the packages serve no legitimate purpose.
