What this malware does

Crypto/SSH/wallet stealer, blockchain-helper-0 campaign sibling (c960+), same aicrypto-xzggg publisher and "Core utilities for blockchain development" description as swap-sdk-87/defi-tools-39. postinstall auto-execs, src/index.js harvests ~/.ssh keys + Sol/Eth/BTC/Tron/Sui/Aptos wallets + .env + seeds, self-labels "CRYPTO STEALER", exfils to SAME Telegram bot 8227918239 chat 6433587894 (not rotated). Inflated version (4.68.54).

On install (postinstall hook requires src/index.js), the package enumerates installer-side secrets — ~/.ssh/id_rsa and id_ed25519, ~/.config/solana/id.json, Ethereum keystore files, Bitcoin wallet.dat, Tron/Sui/Aptos wallet files,.env, mnemonic.txt, seed.txt — and uploads each found file to api.telegram.org/bot<token>/sendDocument using a hardcoded bot token (8227918239:AAGE...) and chat_id (6433587894). Hostname and username are also sent in a message labeled 'CRYPTO STEALER' for victim attribution. Execution is gated by anti-analysis checks (CI=true, GITHUB_ACTIONS, JENKINS_HOME, NODE_ENV=test, usernames matching runner/sandbox/docker, 12-hex docker container hostnames) and delayed by setTimeout(7434) so it fires only on real developer machines. The author's own message label confirms malicious intent.

Detection & response playbook

Credential / info stealer
  1. Find it

    Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for farming-tools-12 (version 4.68.54). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging farming-tools-12 across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    farming-tools-12 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.

  3. Did it already run?

    If farming-tools-12 was ever installed, its post-install/runtime payload may have already executed. O3's L7 egress monitoring and runtime eBPF sensors detect the credential exfiltration or command-and-control callback after install and block the malicious outbound channel, so you catch and contain the actual compromise — not just the presence of the package.

  4. How O3 protects you

    O3 blocks farming-tools-12 before install through its supply-chain scanner, and if it has already run, detects and severs the exfiltration or C2 callback at runtime through L7 egress monitoring and eBPF.

Frequently asked questions
