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.
Library to generate BCB's Pix Payment BR Code 💸
#NPM
npm i pix-charge
#YARN
yarn add pix-charge
import { staticPix } from "pix-charge";
// Payer will set transfer value
let brCode = staticPix({
merchantKey: "gjmolter.1997@gmail.com",
merchantName: "Gabriel Molter",
});
// Transfer value is pre-defined.
let brCodeWithValue = staticPix({
merchantKey: "gjmolter.1997@gmail.com",
merchantName: "Gabriel Molter",
amount: 500,
});
// Transfer value is pre-defined and has charge description
let brCodeWithDescription = staticPix({
merchantKey: "gjmolter.1997@gmail.com",
merchantName: "Gabriel Molter",
amount: 1.99,
description: "Candy Bar", // Will show up as a label describing to the payer what they are being charged for
});
This last one will generate the following payment screen when read:
This lib was created with the goal of being as small and simple as possible, therefore, it only creates the BR Code.
If you need to transform it into a QR Code, there are many ways to do it. I recomend using the qrcode
lib. Here is an example:
First, install the qrcode
lib:
#NPM
npm i qrcode
#YARN
yarn add qrcode
Then import it into your application:
import QRCode from "qrcode";
On your HTML, create an Canvas element with an id
<canvas id="canvas"></canvas>
Then use .toCanvas
to create a QR Code from the BR Code
import { dinamicPix, staticPix } from "pix-charge";
let brCode = staticPix({
merchantKey: "gjmolter.1997@gmail.com",
merchantName: "Gabriel Molter",
});
QRCode.toCanvas(document.getElementById("canvas"), brCode, (error) => {
if (error) {
console.error(error);
} else {
console.log("success!");
}
});
staticPix({ object })

The merchantKey
can be any DICT key:
Email: gjmolter.1997@gmail.com (regular email string)
CPF: 12345678900 (11 characters, no separators)
CPF: 00038166000105 (14 characters, no separators)
Telephone: +5561912345678 (string starting with +, then country code, area code and actual phone number)
EVP: 123e4567-e12b-12d1-a456-426655440000 (string with lowercase characters with separators)
If this lib has helped you and you want to support further development, you can do a Pix transfer using this QR Code:
or copying-and-pasting this BR Code:
