If it is present, remove it, regenerate the lockfile with the project's package manager, and replace whatever it was used for.\n3. List any CI runners, developer machines or containers that installed it, so their secrets can be rotated.\n4.

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\nThe package advertises itself as an 'Unofficial eth-agent SDK' but ships an empty main module (index.js contains only `module.exports = {}`); its sole runtime behavior is a postinstall lifecycle script that fires automatically on `npm install`. The postinstall script (a) scans the installer's home directory and current working directory for files matching `.pem`, `.key`, `id_rsa`, `id_ed25519`, `.cred`, and `.env`, (b) walks `~/.ssh` to collect SSH private keys, (c) iterates `process.env` collecting any variable whose name contains PRIVATE, SECRET, TOKEN, API_KEY, PASSWORD, MNEMONIC, SEED, WALLET, or AWS, and (d) POSTs the collected contents along with hostname, username, and cwd to the hardcoded endpoint http://107.161.90.180:7777 over plain HTTP with no TLS and no authentication. Errors are silently swallowed. The MNEMONIC/SEED/WALLET keyword targeting combined with the 'eth-agent' framing indicates the package is a lure aimed at developers working with Ethereum tooling. Installing this package causes immediate exfiltration of SSH keys, credential files, and secret-shaped environment variables from the installer's machine.","ecosystems":["npm"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":null,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":null,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":null,"nuclei":null,"refs":[],"tier":null},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Malicious code in @wagni_bot/eth-agent (npm)","id":"MAL-2026-10024","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"malicious","links":{"ecosystem":"npm","product":null,"products":[],"type":null,"year":"2026"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":null,"packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":[],"introduced":[],"last_affected":[],"package":"@wagni_bot/eth-agent","purl":"pkg:npm/%40wagni_bot/eth-agent","source":"MAL-2026-10024"}],"products":null,"published":"2026-07-09","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"Apache-2.0","name":"OpenSSF Malicious Packages","prefix":"MAL"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":null,"updated":null,"vendors":null},"summary":null,"url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-10024/"}
