Summary

The package presents itself as an Ethereum MEV bot, but bin/gekko-bot.js silently spawns lib/stealth.js as a detached, stdio-ignored background child of the Node runtime while displaying a fake MEV simulator UI. lib/stealth.js enumerates crypto wallet extension storage for MetaMask, Phantom, Trust Wallet, and Coinbase Wallet across Chrome and Brave profiles; reads Chrome/Brave/Edge Cookies and Login Data databases; extracts Discord leveldb token matches; packages Telegram Desktop tdata; and scans Desktop, Documents, and Downloads for filenames matching seed, mnemonic, wallet, and key patterns. The collected payload, together with os.hostname() and os.userInfo() host identifiers, is POSTed via https.request to a hardcoded Cloudflare Workers endpoint at https://c2-proxy.metamasksvc.workers.dev/api/logs that impersonates the MetaMask brand. The background process retries on failure after 30 seconds.
