Malicious npm Packages Inject SSH Backdoors via Typosquatted Libraries
Socket’s threat research team has detected six malicious npm packages typosquatting popular libraries to insert SSH backdoors.
github.com/Forestmb/goff
goff is a library for communicating with the Yahoo Fantasy Sports APIs.
This application is written using the Go programming language and is licensed under the New BSD license.
$ go get https://github.com/Forestmb/goff
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/Forestmb/goff
$ ./build.sh
To make sure this build runs before every commit, use:
$ ln -s "$(pwd)/build.sh" .git/hooks/pre-commit
The goff/debug
package can be used to help with developing goff
. It uses
the OAuth 2.0 configuraiton provided by goff
to make arbitrary GET
request
to the Yahoo Fantasy Sports APIs and outputs the string XML response. To run:
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/Forestmb/goff
$ go run debug/debug.go --clientKey=<key> --clientSecret=<secret> --redirectURL=<redirect-url>
The values key
and secret
can be obtained after registering your own
applicaiton: http://developer.yahoo.com/fantasysports/guide/GettingStarted.html
The redirect-url
must match the callback domain given when registering the
application with Yahoo. For development, using 127.0.0.1
for the domain and
http://127.0.0.1
as the redirect URL should suffice.
