Attackers Are Hunting High-Impact Node.js Maintainers in a Coordinated Social Engineering Campaign
Multiple high-impact npm maintainers confirm they have been targeted in the same social engineering campaign that compromised Axios.
auth-lib-jwt
Advanced tools
This is a reusable library for implementing authentication functionality in Node.js applications. It provides endpoints for user registration, login, logout, and token management (e.g., generating and refreshing access tokens).
npm i auth-lib-jwt
"/authLibCheck";
"/login";
"/signup";
"/refresh-token";
"/getUser";
"/logout";
import express from "express";
import helmet from "helmet";
import authLib from "auth-lib-jwt";
// Initialize express app
const app = express();
// Initialize authentication library
authLib.initialize({
// Implement your own logic for these functions
getUser: () => ({ success: true }),
addToken: ({}) => ({ success: true }),
getToken: () => ({ success: true }),
saveUser: () => ({ success: true }),
deleteExistingToken: () => ({ success: true }),
});
// Allow BigInt to be serialized to JSON
BigInt.prototype.toJSON = function () {
return this.toString();
};
// Middleware
app.use(express.json());
app.use(express.urlencoded({ extended: true }));
app.use(express.static("public"));
app.use(helmet());
// Routes
app.use(
"/api/Other-api-routers" // Other api routers
);
app.use("/auth", authLib.getRoutes());
// Define port
const port = process.env.PORT || 3000;
// Start server
app.listen(port, () =>
console.log(`
🚀 Server ready at: ${port}`)
);
