Threat Actor Exposes Playbook for Exploiting npm to Build Blockchain-Powered Botnets
A threat actor's playbook for exploiting the npm ecosystem was exposed on the dark web, detailing how to build a blockchain-powered botnet.

fetch-retry
is a drop-in replacement for fetch
:
const fetch = require('@zeit/fetch-retry')(require('node-fetch'))
module.exports = async () => {
const res = await fetch('http://localhost:3000')
console.log(res.status);
}
Make sure to yarn add @zeit/fetch-retry
in your main package.
Note that you can pass retry options to using opts.retry
.
We also provide a opts.onRetry
which is a customized version of opts.retry.onRetry
and passes
not only the error
object in each retry but also the current opts
object.
Some errors are very common in production (like the underlying Socket
yielding ECONNRESET
), and can easily and instantly be remediated
by retrying.
The default behavior of fetch-retry
is to attempt retries 10, 50
and 250 milliseconds (a total of 3 retires) after
a network error or 5xx error occur.
The idea is to provide a sensible default: most applications should continue to perform correctly with a worst case scenario of a given request having an additional 250ms overhead.
On the other hand, most applications that use fetch-retry
instead of
vanilla fetch
should see lower rates of common errors and fewer 'glitches'
in production.
To run rests, execute
npm test
