The collected file contents are POSTed to `api.telegram.org` using a hardcoded bot token (`8227918239:AAGE...`) and chat ID (`6433587894`). The payload self-identifies as `<b>CRYPTO STEALER</b>` in the Telegram message body. Execution is gated by an `isTestEnvironment()` check at src/index.js:11-26 that suppresses the payload in CI, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Docker, and sandbox-shaped hostnames/usernames — analysis-evasion to keep the stealer dormant during scanning and active on developer workstations. The package ships no legitimate functionality; the generic name `defi-tools-39` with a bland 'Cryptocurrency wallet management toolkit' description targets developers searching for DeFi/wallet tooling — the cohort most likely to have on-disk wallet keypairs.\n","affected":[{"package":{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"defi-tools-39"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["4.26.29"],"database_specific":{"cwes":[{"cweId":"CWE-506","description":"The product contains code that appears to be malicious in nature.","name":"Embedded Malicious Code"}],"indicators":{"evidence_files":[{"path":"src/index.js","sha256":"ddc5011b6173a57bc7f29b010ed6b71551dee253b5d05d3efc78d076f5351fee","tlsh":"d1a173f50ef6b7108192e3e8524f60015476e1873c06ed64769c87987f8896ca2f2efc"},{"path":"package.json","sha256":"5406d73479ef298086984a3d898fc117972748f6884c74d24b904663e74a75f7","tlsh":"56e02010df10de7318d45f4f0c72925555514d0754407c1c37d7924c476d77b45fa55e"}],"package_integrity":[{"filename":"defi-tools-39-4.26.29.tgz","hashes":{"sha1":"ad929c90cc23f7f1e99e601b649bd443b6968950","sha512_sri":"sha512-IedNIEZTx3L8EYig7sRtvmRQQ4vjoQ9PBjBfwuEK4J9C/yhnFx8quXGSkUpDAybW3geZPXEcX0qhaFh+doXchw=="}}]}}}],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://app.safedep.io/community/malysis/01KTN8W8PEWZ927N45SGX97T34"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/defi-tools-39/v/4.26.29"}],"credits":[{"name":"Amazon Inspector","type":"FINDER","contact":["inspector-research@amazon.com"]},{"name":"SafeDep","type":"FINDER","contact":["https://safedep.io"]}],"database_specific":{"malicious-packages-origins":[{"source":"amazon-inspector","sha256":"d56fe423f0b7b6fd3188d49ea50e2ebb2e7f6e6c76c5c4682062395b7fe11a94","import_time":"2026-06-11T01:21:50.834756945Z","id":"IN-MAL-2026-005347","modified_time":"2026-06-11T01:20:23Z","versions":["4.26.29"]}]}}
