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.
Mangum is an adapter for running ASGI applications in AWS Lambda to handle Function URL, API Gateway, ALB, and Lambda@Edge events.
Documentation: https://mangum.fastapiexpert.com/
Event handlers for API Gateway HTTP and REST APIs, Application Load Balancer, Function URLs, and CloudFront Lambda@Edge.
Compatibility with ASGI application frameworks, such as Starlette, FastAPI, Quart and Django.
Support for binary media types and payload compression in API Gateway using GZip or Brotli.
Works with existing deployment and configuration tools, including Serverless Framework and AWS SAM.
Startup and shutdown lifespan events.
pip install mangum
from mangum import Mangum
async def app(scope, receive, send):
await send(
{
"type": "http.response.start",
"status": 200,
"headers": [[b"content-type", b"text/plain; charset=utf-8"]],
}
)
await send({"type": "http.response.body", "body": b"Hello, world!"})
handler = Mangum(app, lifespan="off")
Or using a framework:
from fastapi import FastAPI
from mangum import Mangum
app = FastAPI()
@app.get("/")
def read_root():
return {"Hello": "World"}
@app.get("/items/{item_id}")
def read_item(item_id: int, q: str = None):
return {"item_id": item_id, "q": q}
handler = Mangum(app, lifespan="off")
