Summary
Malicious code in @wagni_bot/eth (npm)
Details

The npm package @wagni_bot/eth is a supply-chain credential stealer disguised as a Ethereum SDK. It is one member of a coordinated campaign of 25 crypto/web3 typosquat packages published under the single npm scope @wagni_bot on 2026-07-09.

Each package declares a postinstall lifecycle hook (postinstall: node postinstall.js) that executes automatically on npm install, before the package is ever imported. The script fingerprints the host and user (os.hostname(), os.userInfo(), os.platform()), walks the user's home directory (readdirSync/readFileSync) and reads high-value secrets — SSH private keys (~/.ssh/id_rsa), cryptocurrency wallet files, and .env files (API keys, tokens, seed phrases). It then JSON-encodes the collected data and exfiltrates it to a hardcoded Telegram bot via the Telegram Bot API sendMessage endpoint (https://api.telegram.org/bot8804087989:AAHUia-5DCloXsg9M9QhffTsHO5J_6FAxQM/sendMessage). All error paths are swallowed so the install appears normal.

codelake Research proved the packages belong to one campaign deterministically: the payload file is byte-identical across all 25 packages at each published version (version-lockstep), and every package exfiltrates to the same Telegram bot token — a single automated actor. Detected and classified independently from the live npm feed on 2026-07-09; at the time of reporting the packages were still live on npm and none of the 25 were present in OSV or GHSA (a first-catch).

Package @wagni_bot/eth version 1.0.0 contains 3 scanned files with no a static rule matches and no traced behavioral findings. No install-time or import-time code paths reading installer secrets, contacting external hosts, executing fetched content, or otherwise producing attacker benefit against the installer were observed. The package name pattern (suggestive of a bot/crypto-related utility) is a low-signal heuristic on its own and is not sufficient to classify as a threat without payload evidence.
