CanisterWorm: npm Publisher Compromise Deploys Backdoor Across 29+ Packages
The worm-enabled campaign hit @emilgroup and @teale.io, then used an ICP canister to deliver follow-on payloads.
artifactory-rest-api
Advanced tools
The ArtifactoryApi class provides you with a friendly way of interacting with the Artifactory REST API. Supports both v3 and v4 APIs where possible.
You need to provide basic http credentials when creating a new instance. Just provide username:password in base 64.
Hint: you can quickly obtain the base64 of any string by opening a Chrome browser and typing this in the developer console:
btoa('user:password') //prints: "dXNlcjpwYXNzd29yZA=="
Usage example:
var artifactory = new ArtifactoryApi('https:<myServerURL>', "dXNlcjpwYXNzd29yZA==");
All actions return a Q Promise.
Provides all the info related to a file in a json object. You need to provide the repoKey and the path to the file.
API: FileInfo
Usage example:
var artifactory = new ArtifactoryApi('http://localhost:8080', "dXNlcjpwYXNzd29yZA==");
artifactory.getFileInfo('libs-release-local','/org/acme/lib/ver/lib-ver.pom').then(function(fileInfoJson){
console.log(JSON.stringify(fileInfoJson));
});
That would print to console something like this:
{
"uri": "http://localhost:8080/artifactory/api/storage/libs-release-local/org/acme/lib/ver/lib-ver.pom",
"downloadUri": "http://localhost:8080/artifactory/libs-release-local/org/acme/lib/ver/lib-ver.pom",
"repo": "libs-release-local",
"path": "/org/acme/lib/ver/lib-ver.pom",
"remoteUrl": "http://some-remote-repo/mvn/org/acme/lib/ver/lib-ver.pom",
"created": ISO8601 (yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ),
"createdBy": "userY",
"lastModified": ISO8601 (yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ),
"modifiedBy": "userX",
"lastUpdated": ISO8601 (yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ),
"size": "1024", //bytes
"mimeType": "application/pom+xml",
"checksums": {
"md5" : string,
"sha1" : string
},
"originalChecksums":{
"md5" : string,
"sha1" : string
}
}
All this info will be available in the fileInfoJson object that is returned as part of the promise resolution.
Uploads a file to artifactory. All you need to provide is the repoKey, the remote path where you want to upload the file and the local path of the file you want to upload. If the file already exists in the server it will fail unless you provide the forceUpload flag with a true value. In that case, it will overwite the file in the server.
API: DeployArtifact
Usage example:
var artifactory = new ArtifactoryApi('http://localhost:8080', "dXNlcjpwYXNzd29yZA==");
artifactory.uploadFile('libs-release-local', '/my/jar/1.0/jar-1.0.jar', '/Users/user/artifacts/jar-1.0.jar').then(function (uploadInfo) {
console.log('UPLOAD INFO IS: ' + JSON.stringify(uploadInfo));
}).fail(function (err) {
console.log('ERROR: ' + err);
});
This would print to console the creation info:
{
"uri": "http://localhost:8080/artifactory/libs-release-local/my/jar/1.0/jar-1.0.jar",
"downloadUri": "http://localhost:8080/artifactory/libs-release-local/my/jar/1.0/jar-1.0.jar",
"repo": "libs-release-local",
"path": "/my/jar/1.0/jar-1.0.jar",
"created": ISO8601 (yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ),
"createdBy": "userY",
"size": "1024", //bytes
"mimeType": "application/java-archive",
"checksums":
{
"md5" : string,
"sha1" : string
},
"originalChecksums":{
"md5" : string,
"sha1" : string
}
}
All this info will be available in the uploadInfo object that is returned as part of the promise resolution.
Downloads a file from a given repository/path into a specific file. You need to provide the repoKey, the remote path where the file is located and a destination file. The folder that will contain the destination file must exist! Additionally you can indicate whether you want to perform a checksum verification as part of the download or not.
API: RetrieveArtifact
Usage example:
var artifactory = new ArtifactoryApi('http://localhost:8080', "dXNlcjpwYXNzd29yZA==");
artifactory.downloadFile('libs-release-local', '/my/jar/1.0/jar-1.0.jar', '/Users/user/Downloads/myJar.jar', true).then(function (result) {
console.log(result);
}).fail(function (err) {
console.log('ERROR: ' + err);
});
The result object returned as part of the promise resolution is just a string indicating the final result of the operation.
Verifies if the file exists in the server. You need to provide the repoKey and the path to the file in the server.
API: RetrieveArtifact but only asking for the HEAD instead of doing a GET.
Usage example:
var artifactory = new ArtifactoryApi('http://localhost:8080', "dXNlcjpwYXNzd29yZA==");
artifactory.fileExists('libs-release-local', '/my/jar/1.0/jar-1.0.jar').then(function (exists) {
if(exists){
console.log('YES, file exists!');
}
console.log('NO, it\'s not there');
}).fail(function (err) {
console.log('ERROR: ' + err);
});
Deletes the file or folder from the server. You need to provide the repoKey and the path to the file on the server.
API: DeleteItem
Usage example:
var artifactory = new ArtifactoryApi('http://localhost:8080', "dXNlcjpwYXNzd29yZA==");
artifactory.deleteFile('libs-release-local', '/my/jar/1.0/jar-1.0.jar').then(function () {
// success
}).fail(function (err) {
console.log('ERROR: ' + err);
});
