10 npm Typosquatted Packages Deploy Multi-Stage Credential Harvester
Socket researchers found 10 typosquatted npm packages that auto-run on install, show fake CAPTCHAs, fingerprint by IP, and deploy a credential stealer.

HOPR is a privacy-preserving messaging **protocol** which enables the creation of a secure communication network via relay nodes powered by economic incentives using digital tokens.
HOPR is a privacy-preserving messaging protocol which enables the creation of a secure communication network via relay nodes powered by economic incentives using digital tokens.
Testing is done by trying to generate proto stubs for node and web, if building fails then it means something is wrong with our protos, ideally, we can improve this to also include linting and breaking change detection.
Stage 0 - describe GET /status ({} => { id, multiAddresses, connectedNodes })
Stage 0 - describe GET /version ({} => { version, componentsVersion })
Stage 0 - quit POST /shutdown ({} => { timestamp })
Stage 0 - ping POST /ping ({peerId} => { latency })
Stage 0 - .env POST /settings ({ bootstrapServers, isUsingCoverTraffic })
Stage 1 - balance GET /balance/native ({} => { amount })
Stage 1 - balance GET /balance/hopr ({} => { amount })
Stage 1 - myAddress GET /address/native ({} => { amount })
Stage 1 - myAddress GET /address/hopr ({} => { amount })
Stage 2.a - listChannel GET /channels ({} => { openChannel[] })
Stage 2.a - openChannel POST /channels ({ peerId } => { channelId, txHash })
Stage 2.a - listChannel GET /channels/:channelId ({ channelId } => { state, balance, ... })
Stage 2.a - closeChannel POST /channels/:channelId/close ({ channelId } => { txHash })
Stage 2.b - listen* POST /listen ({ [peerId] } => { stream:payload })
Stage 2.b - send POST /send ({ peerId, payload, [intermediatePeerIds[], timeout]} => { intermediatePeerIds[] })
Stage 3 - transfer* POST /transfer/native ({ address, amount } => { txHash })
Stage 3 - transfer* POST /transfer/hopr ({ address, amount } => { txHash })

.proto file in protos folderyarn build will generate grpc-node stubs and grpc-web stubsexample:
// for node
import { VersionRequest } from '@hoprnet/hopr-protos/node/version_pb'
// for web
import { VersionRequest } from '@hoprnet/hopr-protos/web/version_pb'
You can take a look at generateDocs script on how to generate docs.
Eventually we will have to switch to @grpc/grpc-js since @grpc/grpc-native-core is being deprecated.
We can do that once these issues are closed 1, 2.
