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 is a plugin for exceptional and Sinatra. I am using it manually via the Sinatra error block, and it doesn't really work automatically yet. As such, it's probably not very useful for most people.
But it's a good starting point for Sinatra support, so if you'd like to hack on this, let me know and I'll add you as a contributor!
The one feature I've added (for reason of personal requirement) is params filtering, so you can block out passwords from your exception reports.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'sinatra-exceptional', :require => 'sinatra/exceptional'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install sinatra-exceptional
require 'sinatra'
require 'sinatra/exceptional'
configure do
Exceptional.logger
end
set :exceptional_options, {
key: 'YOUR APP KEY',
params_filter: /password/i
}
# Test with curl -d "password=sex" http://127.0.0.1:4567
post '/' do
raise StandardError, 'testing!'
end
error do
report_exception # This sends the exception to Exceptional, but does not halt.
'derp'
end
$ bundle install
$ bundle exec rake
git checkout -b my-new-feature
)git commit -am 'Added some feature'
