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.
A Ruby interface to the booleans.io API.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'boolio'
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install boolio
Creating a Boolio instance hits the booleans.io API to create a corresponding boolean:
bool = Boolio.new val: true
# => #<Boolio:0x007fdcfa8f3548 @val=true, @id="1aa1f9c8-c65d-43c9-b8cb-ed171f0719bb">
Instantiating without a val
argument will generate a random boolean value. This instance can now be used to interact your booleans. For example, to update your boolean's value, the API's PUT
endpoint can be triggered by calling #update
:
bool.val = false
bool.update
Or,
bool.update false
Already have an ID? Retrieving your booleans is simple:
bool = Boolio.fetch("5b4851a0-0883-4cef-8651-59b2daf053da")
# => #<Boolio:0x007fdcfb3bb7a0 @val=true, @id="5b4851a0-0883-4cef-8651-59b2daf053da">
Invoking #destroy!
removes your boolean from the booleans.io server, nullifies the instance's attributes, and freezes the instance:
bool = Boolio.new val: false
# => #<Boolio:0x007fdcf99e8b98 @val=false, @id="b3f0a1fb-b74a-42b0-a950-cd57bd29a351">
bool.destroy!
# => #<Boolio:0x007fdcf99e8b98 @val=nil, @id=nil>
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec
to run the tests. You can also run bin/console
for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
