Malicious npm Packages Target WhatsApp Developers with Remote Kill Switch
Two npm packages masquerading as WhatsApp developer libraries include a kill switch that deletes all files if the phone number isn’t whitelisted.
go.xsfx.dev/logginghandler
Just a simple zerolog based request logging http middleware. It also sets a X-Request-ID
in the request and response headers.
Powered by github.com/rs/zerolog/hlog and github.com/justinas/alice.
go get -v go.xsfx.dev/logginghandler
logger := log.With().Logger()
handler := logginghandler.Handler(logger)(
http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request){
log := logginghander.Logger(r)
log.Info().Msg("hello world")
w.WriteHeader(http.StatusOK)
return
})
)
http.Handle("/", handler)
log.Fatal().Msg(http.ListenAndServe(":5000", nil).Error())
or with alice
logger := log.With().Logger()
chain := alice.New(logginghandler.Handler(logger)).Then(
http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request){
log := logginghander.Logger(r)
log.Info().Msg("hello world")
w.WriteHeader(http.StatusOK)
return
})
)
http.Handle("/", chain)
log.Fatal().Err(http.ListenAndServe(":5000", nil)).Msg("goodbye")
In other handlers you can access the UUID:
func anotherHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
log := logginghandler.FromRequest(r)
uuid, ok := logginghandler.GetUUID(r)
if !ok {
log.Error().Err(err).Msg("could not find uuid")
w.WriteHeader(http.StatusInternalServerError)
return
}
fmt.Fprintf(w, "your uuid is: %s", uuid)
return
}
The already prepared logger is also available:
l := logginghandler.FromRequest(r)
l.Info().Msg("foo bar")
