What is MAL-2026-4709?
MAL-2026-4709 is a malicious package in wallet-agent-ai-radix, published on 20 May 2026.
Official description
dist/agent.js contains a hardcoded Telegram Bot API endpoint (https://api.telegram.org) reached via fetch() with a POST body that includes values from process.env. The bundle co-references wallet-related endpoints (api.astrolescent.com) alongside the Telegram exfiltration channel. A package whose advertised purpose is wallet/agent functionality has no legitimate reason to POST environment data or wallet context to a hardcoded third-party Telegram bot — this is the canonical hardcoded-C2 exfiltration shape, where any installer/operator running this package leaks data to the attacker who controls the embedded bot token.
What should I do about MAL-2026-4709?
Remove the package from your dependencies and lockfiles, then rotate any secrets on machines where it was installed.
