Socket researchers discovered nine malicious NuGet packages that use time-delayed payloads to crash applications and corrupt industrial control systems.
cfn-custom-resource
Advanced tools
Python helper library for creation of Lambda based Custom Resource for AWS CloudFormation. The library allows the author to focus on the logic of creation/update/removal of the Custom Resource instead of the details of the request/response format that CloudFormation expects.
To install simply use pip:
pip install cfn-custom-resource
Here's how a basic Custom Resource can be created:
from cfn_custom_resource import lambda_handler, create, update, delete
@create()
def create(event, context):
# .. provision resource ..
# resource_id = ...
# output_attribures = {}
return resource_id, output_attributes
@update()
def update(event, context):
# .. update resource ..
# if resource_id changed cloudformation would trigger delete
return resource_id, output_attributes
@delete()
def delete(event, context):
# .. cleanup ..
return
