The Risks of Misguided Research in Supply Chain Security
Snyk's use of malicious npm packages for research raises ethical concerns, highlighting risks in public deployment, data exfiltration, and unauthorized testing.
Assembler implemented in JavaScript:
npm i ass-js
Store 0xBABE
in RAX
register
import {X64} from 'ass-js';
const asm = X64();
asm._('mov', ['rax', 0xBABE]);
Compile to machine code
console.log(code.compile()); // <Buffer 48 c7 c0 be ba 00 00>
Show text representation
console.log(String(code));
// 000 main:
// 001 movq rax, 0x0000BABE ; 000000|000000 0x48, 0xC7, 0xC0, 0xBE, 0xBA, 0x00, 0x00 7 bytes
Use templates
const template = _ => {
_('mov', ['rdx', 0xC001]);
_('mov', ['rax', 0xBABE]);
};
asm.code(template);
