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.
Javascript Library and CLI for Hecate, the persistent, mutable data store focused on GeoJSON first interchange
JS Library
yarn add '@mapbox/hecatejs'
CLI
yarn global add '@mapbox/hecatejs'
Note: if the username & password is not explicitly set, Hecate will fallback to checking for
a HECATE_USERNAME
& HECATE_PASSWORD
environment variable. For the url
parameter, be sure to include the protocol and (if necessary) port number.
JS Library
const Hecate = require('@mapbox/hecatejs');
const hecate = new Hecate({
username: 'ingalls',
password: 'yeaheh',
url: 'https://example.com/hecate',
});
CLI
The CLI tool must be provided the URL to connect to for each subcommand. This can be accomplished by providing the URL to a local or remote Hecate server. Be sure to include the protocol and, for local connections, the port number.
The --url option must be provided for every subcommand but is omitted in this guide for clarity.
# Connecting to a remote hecate server
./cli.js --url 'https://example.com'
# Connecting to a local hecate server
./cli.js --url 'http://localhost:8000'
The API documentation can be found in the docs/API.md
file. This file is automatically
generated from the internal JSDocs.
