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.
Fugotcha is a command-line utility for scraping data from the Fugazi Live Series on Dischord.com.
You might be interested in this project if:
Use the package manager npm to install fugotcha.
npm install --global fugotcha
Requires Node v7.6.0 or greater.
Scrape every (-c 0
) release, starting with the first
(-p washington-dc-usa-90387
), and put the results in /tmp/fugotcha.csv:
fugotcha -p washington-dc-usa-90387 -c 0 -o /tmp/fugotcha.csv
Get help:
fugotcha -h
Data is dumped into a CSV-ish file specified by the -f
option.
CSV-ish? RFC 4180 specifies that each line of a CSV "should contain the same number of fields throughout the file." Because the number of tracks is variable across releases, the rows of the CSV will have different numbers of fields unless I pick an arbitrary number of tracks (x) and supply empty values for releases with fewer than x tracks. Doing so, however, guarantees that Fugazi will get together for another show and play x+1 songs -- and then where would we be?
LibreOffice handles CSV-ish files with unequal numbers of fields without problem. I suspect most spreadsheet applications do.
Dischord's website doesn't appear to do much DOM manipulation via JavaScript.
One could argue that launching a web browser capable of interpreting JavaScript,
headless though it may be, is overkill when the content could be fetched using
wget
or similar. That's a totally valid argument.
So, why puppeteer? Eh, I wanted to learn something new.
