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.
Built on top of replace, grunt-sed is a Grunt plugin for performing search and replace on files.
Install grunt-sed using npm:
$ npm install grunt-sed
Then add this line to your project's Gruntfile.js:
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-sed');
This plugin is a multi task, meaning that Grunt will automatically iterate over all exec targets if a target is not specified.
path
- File or directory to search. Defaults to '.'
.pattern
- String or regex that will be replaced by replacement
. Required.replacement
- The string that will replace pattern
. Can be a function. Required.recursive
- If true
, will recursively search directories. Defaults to false
.grunt.initConfig({
pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),
sed: {
version: {
pattern: '%VERSION%',
replacement: '<%= pkg.version %>',
recursive: true
}
}
});
$ cd grunt-sed
$ npm test
