{"id":"MAL-2026-11110","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.\n\nEach 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.\n\ncodelake 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).\n\n---\n_-= Per source details.

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.\n","modified":"2026-08-05T07:20:47.065080607Z","published":"2026-07-09T00:00:00Z","database_specific":{"iocs":{"urls":["https://api.telegram.org/bot8804087989:AAHUia-5DCloXsg9M9QhffTsHO5J_6FAxQM/sendMessage"],"hashes":["sha256:602408b4bdbeecdaf98121271c7266e618d4efbadf416563254a8c33e129021f"]},"malicious-packages-origins":[{"id":"IN-MAL-2026-013328","import_time":"2026-08-05T07:06:41.614346971Z","modified_time":"2026-08-05T06:07:24Z","sha256":"eb788f0b414bd422fe65842e8eb3fc2ab7cdd0f78e5bf3e9d1de9fe6df4990fb","source":"amazon-inspector","versions":["1.0.0"]}]},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://research.codelake.dev/advisories/clr-2026-3018-wagni-eth"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/@wagni_bot/eth/v/1.0.0"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"@wagni_bot/eth","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/%40wagni_bot/eth"},"versions":["1.0.0"],"database_specific":{"indicators":{"package_integrity":[{"filename":"eth-1.0.0.tgz","hashes":{"sha1":"0563fc0998e4a49f8f596c06f3971bc8091c890b","sha512_sri":"sha512-3uVNggl05vxbpg8ErILu/U9eKwL7hf352085QWCcrgtyQDJ3tlo7HlDDXpEysuk4OSzSJ0Ri/sZmTB1jgUpPbw=="}}]},"source":"https://github.com/ossf/malicious-packages/blob/main/osv/malicious/npm/@wagni_bot/eth/MAL-2026-11110.json","cwes":[{"cweId":"CWE-506","description":"The product contains code that appears to be malicious in nature.","name":"Embedded Malicious Code"}]}}],"schema_version":"1.8.0","credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"],"type":"FINDER"},{"name":"codelake Research","contact":["https://research.codelake.dev/advisories/clr-2026-3018-wagni-eth"],"type":"FINDER"}]}
