Description
The npm package log-taker1 version 0.1.0 contains embedded malicious code acting as an infostealer. It executes at install time and harvests sensitive data including cryptocurrency wallet vaults, browser cookies, credentials, SSH keys, AWS credentials, npm tokens, Docker configs, shell history, and password manager databases. The stolen data is exfiltrated to a command-and-control domain log-taker.store. The package uses shell commands to collect shell history, which often contains sensitive credentials. This package is part of a coordinated DeFi-themed infostealer campaign.
