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.
webpack-serve-overlay
Advanced tools
A rudimentary overlay for webpack-serve, based off the one used in webpack-dev-server
.
This overlay is currently in development. It's fully working,
but has none of the clever automagical features like inserting itself into webpack.entry
.
These features (and more) should hopefully come with time. Right now this package serves as a quick fully functional way of
being able to have the same overlay as webpack-dev-server
in webpack-serve
with minimal fuss & expense.
Install the package:
npm i webpack-serve-overlay
Then add the following entry to the entry
object in your webpack config:
overlay: require.resolve('webpack-serve-overlay')
and you'll be away laughing.
The overlay works by using a WebSocket that connects to ws://localhost:8081
by default.
This value can be overridden by setting the WEBPACK_SERVE_OVERLAY_WS_URL
env property.
I aim to replace later add functionality to get this (and similar) values from webpack-serve
itself.
