@wagni_bot/metemask-sdk is a single-character typosquat of the legitimate metamask-sdk package ("metemask" vs "metamask"). index.js is an empty stub (module.exports = {}); the package has no functional library code. Its sole effect is a postinstall hook (postinstall.js) that runs at npm install time and performs credential theft against the installer:

Recursively walks process.cwd(), os.homedir(), and ~/.ssh, reading files whose names match .env, .cred, .pem, .key, mnemonic, seed, wallet, secret, id_rsa, id_ed25519. This captures SSH private keys, crypto-wallet seed phrases/keystores, and dotenv secrets.
Enumerates process.env and filters keys containing PRIVATE, SECRET, TOKEN, API_KEY, PASSWORD, MNEMONIC, SEED, WALLET, AWS, capturing their values.
Collects host identifiers via os.hostname(), os.userInfo(), platform, and cwd.
POSTs the harvested content (chunked) to https://api.telegram.org/bot<hardcoded-token>/sendMessage targeting attacker chat_id 892359416.

This satisfies the attacker-benefit gate (bulk exfiltration of installer-owned SSH keys, wallet seeds, and credential env vars to an attacker-controlled Telegram channel) and auto-executes on default npm install via the postinstall lifecycle. The typosquat name targets developers intending to install MetaMask's SDK.
