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.
A C-Python wrapper for fpng, "a very fast C++ .PNG image reader/writer for 24/32bpp images."
fpng_py is available via pypi, with pre-build wheels for macOS and Windows with SSE enabled. There are no pre-build wheels for Linux, as they would require building without SSE, which would decrease the performance by a fair bit.
pip install fpng_py
pip install git+https://github.com/K0lb3/fpng_py.git
pip install .
def fpng_cpu_supports_sse41() -> bool:
"""
Returns true if the CPU supports SSE 4.1, and SSE support wasn't disabled by setting FPNG_NO_SSE=1.
"""
...
def fpng_crc32(data: bytes, prev_crc32: int = 0) -> int:
"""
Computes the CRC32 of the given data.
Fast CRC-32 SSE4.1+pclmul or a scalar fallback (slice by 4)
Parameters
----------
data : bytes
The data to compute the CRC32 of.
prev_crc32 : int, optional
The previous CRC32 value. Defaults to 0.
"""
...
def fpng_adler32(data: bytes, adler: int = 1):
"""
Computes the Adler32 of the given data.
Fast Adler32 SSE4.1 Adler-32 with a scalar fallback.
Parameters
----------
data : bytes
The data to compute the Adler32 of.
adler : int, optional
The previous Adler32 value. Defaults to 1.

def fpng_encode_image_to_memory(

flags: CompressionFlags = CompressionFlags.NONE,
) -> bytes:
"""
Encodes the given image into a PNG file in memory.
Fast PNG encoding. The resulting file can be decoded either using a standard PNG decoder or by the fpng_decode_memory() function below.
Parameters
----------
image : bytes
binary data of RGB or RGBA image pixels, R first in memory, B/A last.
w: int
width of the image
h: int
height of the image
num_chans: int, optional
number of channels in the image, 3 for RGB, 4 for RGBA
if num_chans is 0, it will be inferred from the image data.
image's row pitch in bytes must is w*num_chans.
flags: CompressionFlags, optional
flags for the encoder. Defaults to 0.

Parameters
----------
filename : str
path to the file to write the PNG to.
image : bytes
binary data of RGB or RGBA image pixels, R first in memory, B/A last.
w: int

def fpng_get_info(image: bytes) -> Tuple[int, int, int]:
"""
Returns the width, height and number of channels of the given image.
Fast PNG decoding of files ONLY created by fpng_encode_image_to_memory() or fpng_encode_image_to_file().
If fpng_get_info() or fpng_decode_memory() returns FPNG_DECODE_NOT_FPNG, you should decode the PNG by falling back to a general purpose decoder.
fpng_get_info() parses the PNG header and iterates through all chunks to determine if it's a file written by FPNG, but does not decompress the actual image data so it's relatively fast.
Parameters
----------
image : bytes
binary data of RGB or RGBA image pixels, R first in memory, B/A last.
Returns
-------
(width, height, num_chans) : Tuple[int, int, int]
"""

def fpng_decode_from_memory(

Decodes the given image from memory.
fpng_decode_memory decompresses 24/32bpp PNG files ONLY encoded by this module.
If the image is 24bpp and 32bpp is requested, the alpha values will be set to 0xFF.
If the image is 32bpp and 24bpp is requested, the alpha values will be discarded.
Parameters
----------
image : bytes
binary data of RGB or RGBA image pixels, R first in memory, B/A last.
desired_channels : int
number of channels to decode the image to.
3 for RGB, 4 for RGBA
