Data Theft Repackaged: A Case Study in Malicious Wrapper Packages on npm
The Socket Research Team breaks down a malicious wrapper package that uses obfuscation to harvest credentials and exfiltrate sensitive data.
@ui5/server
Advanced tools
@ui5/server is a development server for UI5 projects. It provides a local server environment to serve UI5 applications and libraries, enabling developers to test and debug their UI5 projects locally.
Serve UI5 Applications
This feature allows you to serve a UI5 application locally. The code sample demonstrates how to set up a server on port 8080 to serve resources from the './webapp' directory.
const { serve } = require('@ui5/server');
const server = serve({
port: 8080,
resources: {
path: './webapp'
}
});
server.start();
Middleware Support
This feature allows you to add custom middleware to the server. The code sample shows how to log the request URL using a custom middleware function.
const { serve } = require('@ui5/server');
const server = serve({
port: 8080,
resources: {
path: './webapp'
},
middleware: [
function customMiddleware(req, res, next) {
console.log('Request URL:', req.url);
next();
}
]
});
server.start();
Live Reload
This feature enables live reloading of the application when changes are detected. The code sample demonstrates how to enable live reload by setting the 'liveReload' option to true.
const { serve } = require('@ui5/server');
const server = serve({
port: 8080,
resources: {
path: './webapp'
},
liveReload: true
});
server.start();
http-server is a simple, zero-configuration command-line HTTP server. It can be used to serve static files and is often used for quick local development. Unlike @ui5/server, it does not have built-in support for UI5-specific features like middleware or live reload.
live-server is a simple development HTTP server with live reload capability. It automatically reloads the page when files change. While it provides live reload similar to @ui5/server, it lacks UI5-specific middleware support.
webpack-dev-server is a development server that provides live reloading and other features for projects using Webpack. It is highly configurable and supports middleware, but it is more complex to set up compared to @ui5/server, which is tailored for UI5 projects.
