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.
Here are some things that set it apart:
--local
and --cloud
with a single argument.Consider a computational task that breaks into pieces (and maybe its pieces have pieces too).
Conducto organizes those pieces into trees that we call pipelines. At conducto.com we host pages that let you view and control them.
Conducto is good for those long running tasks that people like to check in on. It provides a place where they can watch them happen (even if they're running on your dev box).
Conducto pipelines are fully encapsulated in containers, so they're portable. All you need is a Docker, a web browser, and a Conducto account (which is free).
The only paid feature is cloud mode, which is where we provide the compute power instead of leaning on your local Docker daemon.
You'll need Python 3.6 or higher and Docker. Use pip to install:
pip install conducto
Start with a script like this:
# pipeline.py
import conducto as co
py_code = 'print("Hello")'
js_code = 'console.log("World!")'
def pipeline() -> co.Serial:
root = co.Serial()
root["hello from python"] = co.Exec(f"python -c '{py_code}'")
root["world from javascript"] = co.Exec(f"echo '{js_code}' | node -",
image="node:current-alpine")
return root
if __name__ == "__main__":
co.main(default=pipeline)
Launch it like this:
python pipeline.py --local
You'll be prompted to create a Conducto account, and then you'll see your pipeline.
