Follow-up and Clarification on Recent Malicious Ruby Gems Campaign
A clarification on our recent research investigating 60 malicious Ruby gems.
Adds pry-measure
command for quick adhoc benchmarking.
gem install pry-measure
or added to the Gemfile:
gem 'pry-measure'
A pry_measure
helper method is added which takes arguments for number of times to execute and number of times to run (defaults to 1 and 10, respectively):
pry(main)> pry_measure(2, 200000) do
pry(main)* 10.times do |time|; 1000*1000*1000*1000; end
pry(main)* end
user system total real
0.230000 0.000000 0.230000 ( 0.234847)
0.230000 0.000000 0.230000 ( 0.228060)
=> [#<Benchmark::Tms:0x007fd992bd2b30 ...>, #<Benchmark::Tms:0x007fd992bd2220 ...>]
Additionally, time_method
is added:
pry(main)> time_method String, 'new', 'FooBar'
Time elapsed 0.004 milliseconds
pry-measure -t 10 #{`curl http://google.com`}
The above passes the interpolated code to Benchmark.measure to be evaluated 10 times. Upon completion the command returns a results hash with the average times:
=> {
:real => 0.1958,
:utime => 0.0,
:stime => 0.002,
:total => 0.056
}
pry-realtime #{`curl http://google.com`}
=> 0.6405
