The program, known as 'polymarket-copy-trading-bot,' was found to contain code that automatically reads users' '.env' files, which include wallet private keys, leading to potential theft of funds. The developer of this program has repeatedly modified and submitted the code on GitHub, intentionally concealing the malicious package.
