OpenSSF/OSV advisory MAL-2026-12085 confirms this npm version as malicious. Package presents itself as a drop-in replacement for the popular \`bip39\` library but ships a credential stealer in its main entry. On require, the module serializes the full process.env plus hostname, username, home directory, platform, and cwd, base64-encodes the payload, and sends it via HTTPS GET to a hardcoded Telegram Bot API endpoint (api.telegram.org/bot\<token\>/sendMessage?chat\_id=8969499041)...

## Public findings

### 1. High: Osv Malicious Advisory
- **Category:** External Intel
- **Confidence:** 100.0%

Package presents itself as a drop-in replacement for the popular \`bip39\` library but ships a credential stealer in its main entry. On require, the module serializes the full process.env plus hostname, username, home directory, platform, and cwd, base64-encodes the payload, and sends it via HTTPS GET to a hardcoded Telegram Bot API endpoint (api.telegram.org/bot\<token\>/sendMessage?chat\_id=8969499041). A marker file ('.npi-...') is written to /tmp to ensure the beacon fires only once per host. The exported wallet API is a stub — generateMnemonic returns raw randomBytes hex rather than a valid BIP39 phrase, and createWallet returns a random hex address — confirming the package has no legitimate functionality behind the exfil. Bulk process.env dumps routinely contain AWS\_SECRET\_ACCESS\_KEY, GITHUB\_TOKEN, NPM\_TOKEN, database passwords, and CI secrets, all of which are captured and delivered to the attacker's Telegram chat.
