Kill Switch Hidden in npm Packages Typosquatting Chalk and Chokidar
Socket researchers found several malicious npm packages typosquatting Chalk and Chokidar, targeting Node.js developers with kill switches and data theft.
WIP
Inspired by mitt, but with a large modification: listeners return a response to the emit
caller.
When defining an event i emmi
, you need to type it with an input
and output
field. Calling emit
will return an Output[]
value. Output
can be anything you want.
Also added an onReply
listener that receives the Input
and Output[]
result of an emit
.
This enables some interesting patterns not possible with most event emitters.
Listeners can return the Output
type, or simply omit returning anything. For convenience, listeners that return undefined
/void
will not be added to the Output[]
result of an emit
.
Note that async functions that return undefined
(Promise<undefined>
) will be returned

We found that emmi demonstrated a not healthy version release cadence and project activity because the last version was released a year ago. It has 1 open source maintainer collaborating on the project.
