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/Lionparcel/timezonemapper
Golang lib that converts from GPS coordinate latitude/longitude to timezone string.
Translated from java version, see https://github.com/drtimcooper/LatLongToTimezone .
go get -u github.com/Lionparcel/timezonemapper
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/Lionparcel/timezonemapper"
"time"
)
func main() {
// Get timezone string from lat/long
timezone := timezonemapper.LatLngToTimezoneString(39.9254474,116.3870752)
// Should print "Timezone: Asia/Shanghai"
fmt.Printf("Timezone: %s\n", timezone)
// Load location from timezone
loc, _ := time.LoadLocation(timezone)
// Parse time string with location
t, _ :=time.ParseInLocation("2006-01-02 15:04:05", "2010-01-01 00:00:00", loc)
// Should print
// 2010-01-01 00:00:00 +0800 CST
// 2009-12-31 16:00:00 +0000 UTC
fmt.Println(t)
fmt.Println(t.UTC())
}

Will update (I guess) if the original project drtimcooper/LatLongToTimezone updates.
