Data Theft Repackaged: A Case Study in Malicious Wrapper Packages on npm
The Socket Research Team breaks down a malicious wrapper package that uses obfuscation to harvest credentials and exfiltrate sensitive data.
lodash.flattendeep
Advanced tools
The lodash.flattendeep package is a utility library that provides a method to recursively flatten an array. This means it can take an array with nested arrays and convert it into a single, flat array with all the elements.
Flatten Deeply Nested Arrays
This feature allows you to take an array with multiple levels of nested arrays and flatten it into a single array containing all the elements. The code sample demonstrates how to use lodash.flattendeep to achieve this.
const flattenDeep = require('lodash.flattendeep');
const nestedArray = [1, [2, [3, [4]], 5]];
const flatArray = flattenDeep(nestedArray);
console.log(flatArray); // Output: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
The array-flatten package provides similar functionality to lodash.flattendeep by flattening nested arrays. However, it is a more lightweight package focused solely on array flattening, whereas lodash.flattendeep is part of the larger Lodash library which offers a wide range of utility functions.
The flat package is another alternative that can flatten nested arrays. It also offers additional features such as flattening objects with nested properties. This makes it more versatile compared to lodash.flattendeep, which is specifically designed for arrays.
The lodash method _.flattenDeep
exported as a Node.js module.
Using npm:
$ {sudo -H} npm i -g npm
$ npm i --save lodash.flattendeep
In Node.js:
var flattenDeep = require('lodash.flattendeep');
See the documentation or package source for more details.
