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.
@socketsecurity/config
Advanced tools
Reader/parser/validator tool for Socket.dev's socket.yml
configuration files
npm install @socketsecurity/config
import { readSocketConfig } from '@socketsecurity/config'
const config = await readSocketConfig('socket.yml')
readSocketConfig(<path-to-config-file>)
Returns a Promise
that resolves to the parsed config file or, if no such file was found, it fails silently and returns undefined
.
If the config file can't be read, then the Promise
will be rejected with an error.
The read file is parsed using parseSocketConfig
and the Promise
from there is what is ultimately returned when no rejection or resolve has been made already.
parseSocketConfig(<content-of-config-file>)
Returns a Promise
that resolves to the parsed config.
If the config content can't be parsed or it is invalid, then the Promise
will be rejected with an error.
Any additional parameters that does not conform to the schema will be silently dropped. Also: Input data will be coerced into its intended shape when possible.
socketYmlSchema
A JSON Schema object typed with JSONSchemaType<SocketYml>
from Ajv
SocketValidationError
Error thrown when the parsed data doesn't conform to the JSON Schema definition (see socketYmlSchema
).
Exposes an array of Ajv's ErrorObject
at .validationErrors
, allowing a consumer to present a user friendly error.
This module has full type coverage through a types in js where TypeScript validates JSDoc annotated javascript and exports it as standard type definition files.
SocketYml
A TypeScript type representing the shape of the parsed socket.yml
config
@socketsecurity/cli
- our CLI uses this to parse the Socket configFAQs
