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.
Optimus is a simple cluster manager for node.js, built off the native cluster module. Requires node v0.8.0 or higher.
Optimus receives a configuration object, which contains the names of applications to run, and the number of instances to spawn of each application.
The number of instances can either be a number, or the string "cpus". You can also perform multiplication on "cpus".
Here is an example of how to use optimus.
var optimus = require("optimus");
optimus.start({
"myapp": 1,
"dont_restart": {
"count": 1,
"autoRestart": false
},
"cleaner": "cpus*2",
"myworker": "cpus"
}, __dirname);
