A Node.js Proof of Concept Virus
Node.js Virus
This is a Node.js 'Proof of Concept' Virus, it runs only in node and attempts to infect other node applications.
Word or caution:
If you run the virus, it likely will do its job and .. infect you :) Also, it could break stuff.
What it does:
For details how the virus works, read the comments in the source, but here what the virus does on a high level:
- It scans directories for package.json files and analyzes them for ‘entry points’
- It then checks if those files can be infected (eg: no already infected files)
- It attempts to append itself to the file (and even chmods if necessary)
