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.
@edx/studio-frontend
Advanced tools
React front end for edX Studio
Requirements:
To install and run locally:
$ git clone git@github.com:edx/studio-frontend.git
$ cd studio-frontend
$ docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml up studio-frontend
To install a new node package in the repo (assumes container is running):
$ make shell
$ npm install <package> --save-dev
$ exit
$ git add package.json
To make changes to the Docker image locally, modify the Dockerfile as needed and run:
$ docker build -t mroytman/studio-frontend:latest .
Webpack will serve pages in development mode at http://localhost:18011.
Notes:
The development server will run regardless of whether devstack is running along side it. If devstack is not running, requests to the studio API will fail. You can start up the devstack at any time by following the instructions in the devstack repository, and the development server will then be able to communicate with the studio container. API requests will return the following statuses, given your current setup:
Studio Running? | Logged in? | API return |
---|---|---|
No | n/a | 504 |
Yes | No | 404 |
Yes | Yes, non-staff account | 403 |
Yes | Yes, staff account | 200 |
Currently, the process for releasing a new version of our package is as follows:
git checkout master && git pull
. Ensure your current directory is cleaned, with no outstanding commits or files.make publish
. This will:npm version patch
sub-command under the publish
make target.git checkout
to a new branchFAQs
