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 gem is an interactive cli program to view and list current bills for the 2017-2018 Regular Session in Pennsylvania. The data is scraped from http://www.legis.state.pa.us/ to display current information.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'pa_billreader'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install pa_billreader
Open running the program, it will automatically scrape the data from the PA Legislation website and create bill objects. Type 'list' to view the list of bill numbers and summaries (warning: it will be >1000 items) Type 'view' to view information on a specific bill. You will be prompted for the number and then the branch of congress. When viewing a bill, you can type 'view memo' or 'view full' and the url will open in your browser. Not all bills will have these available. Type 'exit' to exit the application.
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.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install
. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb
, and then run bundle exec rake release
, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem
file to rubygems.org.
