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.
This is unofficial wrapper for Ansible Automation Platform (AAP) API.
To see an example how this module can be used please view __main__.py
Python module can be invoked directly to execute job in aap and report status to terminal. AAP Credentials need to be specified either via CLI arguments or env variables
Usage:
usage: python3 -m aap [-h] [--insecure] [-p PASSWORD] [-u USERNAME] [-r RETRIES] [-s URL] {job,grep} ...
Trigger jobs and workflows from terminal
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--insecure Dont verify ssl certificate
-p PASSWORD, --password PASSWORD
Password used for authentication to AAP API (env: AAP_PASSWORD)
-u USERNAME, --username USERNAME
Username used for authentication to AAP API (env: AAP_USERNAME)
-r RETRIES, --retries RETRIES
Number of retries on API error
-s URL, --url URL URL of AAP instance (env: AAP_URL)
subcommands:
{job,grep} commands help
job job help
grep grep help
usage: python3 -m aap job [-h] -i ID [-f] [-l LIMIT] [-j TAGS] [-e EXTRA] [-t TIMEOUT] [--ignore-fail] {run-job}
positional arguments:
{run-job}
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-i ID, --id ID ID of job to run
-f, --follow Wait for job to finish execution and report its status
-l LIMIT, --limit LIMIT
Limit as comma separated list
-j TAGS, --tags TAGS Job tags as comma separated list
-e EXTRA, --extra-vars EXTRA
json formatted extra variables
-t TIMEOUT, --poll-timeout TIMEOUT
Number of seconds between 2 polling requests to aap
--ignore-fail Program will return successfull even if job fails
usage: python3 -m aap grep [-h] -s NEEDLE [-o ORGID]
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-s NEEDLE, --search NEEDLE
Look for string $string in configuration
-o ORGID, --orgid ORGID
ID or Name of organization to look for $string in configurations
Example run
$ python3 -m aap job --insecure run-job --id 7848 -l sw01-dist.itdev -f
Searching job 7848
Job: Juniper - gather facts
limit: ['sw01-dist.itdev']
extra variables: {}
job id: 2161058
