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.
Execute any node module function from the command line.
npm install -g cmd-fn
Usage: cmd-fn [options]
Options:
-h, --help output usage information
-m, --module [name] module name e.g.: `fs`
-f, --function [name] function name
-c, --cwd [path] working directory context to run function from
-p, --params [arguments] function arguments specified as an array e.g.: `'["foo", "bar"]'`
--promise function is async and uses promises
--node-callback function is async with a node-style callback
Example:
To execute the following node function `fs.readdirSync("/var/tmp")`, you would do:
$ cmd-fn --module fs --function readdirSync --params '["/var/tmp"]'
To do an async call like `http.get({"hostname":"www.google.com"}, cb)`:
$ cmd-fn --module http --function get --params '[{"hostname":"www.google.com"}]' --node-callback
