CanisterWorm: npm Publisher Compromise Deploys Backdoor Across 29+ Packages
The worm-enabled campaign hit @emilgroup and @teale.io, then used an ICP canister to deliver follow-on payloads.
wasm-encoder
Advanced tools
Add wasm-encoder to your Cargo.toml
$ cargo add wasm-encoder
And then you can encode WebAssembly binaries via:
use wasm_encoder::{
CodeSection, ExportKind, ExportSection, Function, FunctionSection,
Module, TypeSection, ValType,
};
let mut module = Module::new();
// Encode the type section.
let mut types = TypeSection::new();
let params = vec![ValType::I32, ValType::I32];
let results = vec![ValType::I32];
types.ty().function(params, results);
module.section(&types);
// Encode the function section.
let mut functions = FunctionSection::new();
let type_index = 0;
functions.function(type_index);
module.section(&functions);
// Encode the export section.
let mut exports = ExportSection::new();
exports.export("f", ExportKind::Func, 0);
module.section(&exports);
// Encode the code section.
let mut codes = CodeSection::new();
let locals = vec![];
let mut f = Function::new(locals);
f.instructions()
.local_get(0)
.local_get(1)
.i32_add()
.end();
codes.function(&f);
module.section(&codes);
// Extract the encoded Wasm bytes for this module.
let wasm_bytes = module.finish();
// We generated a valid Wasm module!
assert!(wasmparser::validate(&wasm_bytes).is_ok());
