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.
Need to backup a tree of files but can't trust the storage?
This gem provides a gpg-archiver
command that can be used to build and
maintain an encrypted copy of a directory tree using
GnuPG. The encrypted directory can be backed-up
to untrusted storage using your regular backup solution.
If you plan to build an application embedding SecureArchive, add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'secure_archive'
And then execute:
$ bundle
If you plan to use the gpg-archiver
utility, simply run:
$ gem install secure_archive
The gpg-archiver
utility requires at least a GnuPG recipient (provided using the -r
argument), followed by the source and target directories. If the source directory has a trailing /
, the directory content (and not the directory itself) will be archived, so the following commands are equivalent:
gpg-archiver -r user@example.com /var/www/example.com/uploads /var/backup/example.com
gpg-archiver -r user@example.com /var/www/example.com/uploads/ /var/backup/example.com/uploads
git checkout -b my-new-feature
)git commit -am 'Add some feature'
)git push origin my-new-feature
