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.
pnpm-sync-dependencies-meta-injected
Advanced tools
pnpm-sync-dependencies-meta-injected
dependenciesMeta.*.injected = true
?This package will solve all your problems!
Install the dependency.
pnpm i pnpm-sync-dependencies-meta-injected -D
In each of your projects that declare a dependenciesMeta.*.injected = true
, add a _syncPnpm
script in your package.json:
"_syncPnpm": "pnpm sync-dependencies-meta-injected"
In each of your projects that includes _syncPnpm
, re-configure your project's start
command to run _syncPnpm
in watch mode so that you can continually work on your injected dependencies and have updates automatically re-synced as they are built.
"start": "concurrently 'ember serve' 'pnpm _syncPnpm --watch' --names 'tests serve,tests sync deps'",
By using concurrently
, we can run our dev server as well as the _syncPnpm
task in watch mode in parallel.
When using turborepo, we can automatically sync the injected dependencies for all tasks defined in turbo.json
In your turbo.json
, configure a _syncPnpm
task:
"_syncPnpm": {
"dependsOn": ["^build"],
"cache": false
},
It must not have a cache, because we need to modify the .pnpm
directory in the top-level node_modules
folder.
In your turbo.json
, configure each task that relies on ^build
to also rely on _syncPnpm
(no ^
) -- this, combined with the above will sync the hard links that pnpm
uses for dependenciesMeta.*.injected
after the dependencies are built.
"test": {
"outputs": [],
- "dependsOn": ["^build"]
+ "dependsOn": ["_syncPnpm"]
},
"build": {
"outputs": ["dist/**"],
- "dependsOn": ["^build"]
+ "dependsOn": ["_syncPnpm"]
},
// etc
Add
DEBUG=sync-pnpm
before the invocation.
Example of adding to the package.json#scripts
"_syncPnpm": "DEBUG=sync-pnpm pnpm sync-dependencies-meta-injected"
Or on-the-fly:
DEBUG=sync-pnpm pnpm _syncPnpm
