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.
Queries AWS for running instances, then connects you to the one you want (via ssh or mosh) so that you don't have to keep everything in your head
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'bang'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install bang
Make sure that these three environment variables are set export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID='...'' export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY='...' export AWS_IDENTITY='...' (your pem file)
We also look at AWS_REGION, but it's not mandatory to set (us-west-2 by default)
Then just run 'bang'
git checkout -b my-new-feature
)git commit -am 'Add some feature'
)git push origin my-new-feature
)'m' when highlighting a machine will mosh you to it.
's' or enter will ssh you to that machine.
'q' will close bang.
Only looks at one PEM at a time
Only looks at one region at a time
Only does ubuntu@IP_ADDRESS machines
