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.
Keyborg is a library that tracks the state of current keyboard input on a web page through focus events.
It does not do anything invasive to the DOM but provides an event subscription system that allows users to choose how they want to react to changes in focus.
# NPM
npm install --save keyborg
# Yarn
yarn add keyborg
import { createKeyborg } from "keyborg";
// initializes keyborg on the current window
const keyborg = createKeyborg(window);
// This is called every time the keyboard input state changes
const handler = (isUsingKeyboard) => {
if (isUsingKeyboard) {
document.body.setAttribute("data-is-keyboard", "true");
} else {
document.body.removeAttribute("data-is-keyboard");
}
};
keyborg.subscribe(handler);
keyborg.unsubscribe(handler);
