What this malware does

Package contains just a function to send out data. It (or a package sharing the same IoCs) is used in a malicious GitHub project to exfiltrate crypto currency private keys, e.g. https://github.com/taikoyaki/MegaEth-Auto-Bot/blob/772b4591daaa0b200d1bd1fd3be3d48b8433f084/cap/cap.py#L49

Category: MALICIOUS - The campaign has clearly malicious intent, like infostealers.

Campaign: 2025-04-alchemyrpcs

Reasons (based on the campaign):

  • crypto-related

  • The malicious code is intentionally included in a dependency of the package

  • exfiltration-crypto

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 web3wallet (version 0.1.1). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging web3wallet across your stack and pipelines.

  2. If you installed it — respond

    web3wallet 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 web3wallet 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 web3wallet 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

Detect & block this

O3 blocks web3wallet-class packages before install and in CI — and if it already ran, its runtime egress monitoring catches the credential exfiltration and severs the channel.
