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.
Right pad a string with zeros or a specified string. Fastest implementation.
The 'pad-right' npm package is a utility for padding the right side of a string with another string until the resulting string reaches a specified length. This can be useful for aligning text in console outputs, creating visually consistent reports, or formatting data in a uniform way for easier processing.
String Padding
This feature allows you to extend the length of a string by appending a specified character or string to its end until it reaches a desired length. In the code sample, the string 'hello' is padded with spaces on the right until it reaches a length of 10 characters.
"hello".padRight(10, ' ');
Similar to 'pad-right', 'string-padding' offers functionality to pad strings on either the left or the right. It provides more flexibility compared to 'pad-right' as it allows padding on both sides and can handle different padding characters for left and right padding.
The 'pad' package is another alternative that provides similar functionalities. It allows padding on both the left and the right, which makes it more versatile than 'pad-right' which only supports right-side padding.

Install with npm
$ npm i pad-right --save
npm test
var pad = require('pad-right');
pad('abc', 5)
// 'abc00'
pad('abc', 10)
// 'abc0000000'
pad('abc', 10, '~')
// 'abc~~~~~~~'
pad('abc', 10, ' ')
// 'abc '
Install dev dependencies:
$ npm i -d && npm test
