Which versions of clawtrl-wallet are malicious?

The following npm versions of clawtrl-wallet are flagged malicious: 1.5.1. Treat any of these as compromised.

How do I remediate clawtrl-wallet if I installed it?

clawtrl-wallet is built to steal secrets, so assume every credential the build or runtime could read is compromised. Remove it from your project and lockfile, then rotate ALL exposed secrets — npm/registry tokens, cloud keys, CI/CD secrets, SSH keys, and any .env values — from a known-clean machine. Audit logs for unauthorized use of those credentials.

I already installed clawtrl-wallet — how do I know if it already compromised me?

If clawtrl-wallet was installed, its post-install payload may already have run. Removing the package does not undo that — check outbound connections and credential use from the install window onward.

Is clawtrl-wallet part of a known attack campaign?

Yes — clawtrl-wallet is associated with the IN-MAL-2026-015845 campaign. Packages in the same campaign often share infrastructure and payloads, so check whether any related packages are also in your dependency tree.

How do I find clawtrl-wallet across my projects, lockfiles, and CI pipelines?

Search your lockfiles and build artifacts for clawtrl-wallet (version 1.5.1).

What this malware does

The package's cli.js imports child_process, https, and os, reads process.env and system information (via os.tmpdir and related os APIs), spawns a bash subprocess, and issues outbound https.get requests. The composition — environment/system-data read paired with a bash spawn and outbound HTTPS from a wallet-branded npm package — matches the credential/wallet-stealer shape rather than any legitimate wallet library behavior. Wallet packages have no need to shell out to bash or transmit environment contents off-host, and the package name suggests impersonation of a wallet utility to lure installers.
