Malicious npm Packages Inject SSH Backdoors via Typosquatted Libraries
Socket’s threat research team has detected six malicious npm packages typosquatting popular libraries to insert SSH backdoors.
It aims to be a fast MongoDB-like library which can be embedded into C/C++, .Net, NodeJS, Python, Lua, Go, Java and Ruby applications under terms of LGPL license.
EJDB is the C library based on modified version of Tokyo Cabinet.
JSON representation of queries and data implemented with API based on C BSON

/**
* Create query object.
* Sucessfully created queries must be destroyed with ejdbquerydel().
*
* EJDB queries inspired by MongoDB (mongodb.org) and follows same philosophy.
*
* - Supported queries:
* - Simple matching of String OR Number OR Array value:
* - {'fpath' : 'val', ...}
* - $not Negate operation.
* - {'fpath' : {'$not' : val}} //Field not equal to val
* - {'fpath' : {'$not' : {'$begin' : prefix}}} //Field not begins with val
* - $begin String starts with prefix
* - {'fpath' : {'$begin' : prefix}}
* - $gt, $gte (>, >=) and $lt, $lte for number types:
* - {'fpath' : {'$gt' : number}, ...}
* - $bt Between for number types:
* - {'fpath' : {'$bt' : [num1, num2]}}
* - $in String OR Number OR Array val matches to value in specified array:
* - {'fpath' : {'$in' : [val1, val2, val3]}}
* - $nin - Not IN
* - $strand String tokens OR String array val matches all tokens in specified array:
* - {'fpath' : {'$strand' : [val1, val2, val3]}}
* - $stror String tokens OR String array val matches any token in specified array:
* - {'fpath' : {'$stror' : [val1, val2, val3]}}
* - $exists Field existence matching:
* - {'fpath' : {'$exists' : true|false}}
* - $icase Case insensitive string matching:
* - {'fpath' : {'$icase' : 'val1'}} //icase matching
* Ignore case matching with '$in' operation:
* - {'name' : {'$icase' : {'$in' : ['tHéâtre - театр', 'heLLo WorlD']}}}
* For case insensitive matching you can create special index of type: `JBIDXISTR`
* - $elemMatch The $elemMatch operator matches more than one component within an array element.
* - { array: { $elemMatch: { value1 : 1, value2 : { $gt: 1 } } } }
* Restriction: only one $elemMatch allowed in context of one array field.
* - $and, $or joining:
* - {..., $and : [subq1, subq2, ...] }
* - {..., $or : [subq1, subq2, ...] }
* Example: {z : 33, $and : [ {$or : [{a : 1}, {b : 2}]}, {$or : [{c : 5}, {d : 7}]} ] }
*
* - Mongodb $(projection) operator supported. (http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/projection/positional/#proj._S_)
* - Mongodb positional $ update operator supported. (http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/operator/positional/)
*
*
* - Queries can be used to update records:
* $set Field set operation.
* - {.., '$set' : {'field1' : val1, 'fieldN' : valN}}
* $upsert Atomic upsert. If matching records are found it will be '$set' operation,
* otherwise new record will be inserted with fields specified by argment object.
* - {.., '$upsert' : {'field1' : val1, 'fieldN' : valN}}
* $inc Increment operation. Only number types are supported.
* - {.., '$inc' : {'field1' : number, ..., 'field1' : number}
* $dropall In-place record removal operation.
* - {.., '$dropall' : true}
* $addToSet Atomically adds value to the array only if its not in the array already.
* If containing array is missing it will be created.
* - {.., '$addToSet' : {'fpath' : val1, 'fpathN' : valN, ...}}
* $addToSetAll Batch version if $addToSet
* - {.., '$addToSetAll' : {'fpath' : [array of values to add], ...}}
* $pull Atomically removes all occurrences of value from field, if field is an array.
* - {.., '$pull' : {'fpath' : val1, 'fpathN' : valN, ...}}
* $pullAll Batch version of $pull
* - {.., '$pullAll' : {'fpath' : [array of values to remove], ...}}
*
* NOTE: Negate operations: $not and $nin not using indexes
* so they can be slow in comparison to other matching operations.
*
* NOTE: Only one index can be used in search query operation.
*
* QUERY HINTS (specified by `hints` argument):
* - $max Maximum number in the result set
* - $skip Number of skipped results in the result set
* - $orderby Sorting order of query fields.
* - $fields Set subset of fetched fields
If a field presented in $orderby clause it will be forced to include in resulting records.
* Example:
* hints: {
* "$orderby" : { //ORDER BY field1 ASC, field2 DESC
* "field1" : 1,
* "field2" : -1
* },
* "$fields" : { //SELECT ONLY {_id, field1, field2}
* "field1" : 1,
* "field2" : 1
* }
* }
*
* Many query examples can be found in `testejdb/t2.c` test case.
*
* @param EJDB database handle.
* @param qobj Main BSON query object.
* @param orqobjs Array of additional OR query objects (joined with OR predicate).
* @param orqobjsnum Number of OR query objects.
* @param hints BSON object with query hints.
* @return On success return query handle. On error returns NULL.
