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.
pyaxis is a python library for PC-Axis (or PX) formatted data manipulation which allows reading and writing PC-Axis [1]_ format with python, using the DataFrame structures provided by the widely accepted pandas library [2]_. PX is a standard format for statistical files used by a large number of statistical offices. A package of software has been developed for this format: PX-Win, PX-Web and PX-Edit. pyaxis eases reading and parsing of PX files data and metadata into a pandas Dataframe and a dict structure, allowing their manipulation in a tabular and pythonic manner. pyaxis is provided under the Apache License 2.0.

print px['DATA']
print px['METADATA']
