NPM-Vuln-PoC

This repository contains the proof-of-concepts for vulnerabilities discovered in npm packages.

Warning: This repo will install vulnerable npm packages and test them to demonstrate the vulnerabilities. So running this project in a VM (with Linux or Mac OS) is highly recommended.

To reproduce the vulnerabilities, first install the vulnerable packages:

npm install

The following vulnerable packages require a global install or root privilege:

sudo npm install [email protected]
sudo npm install [email protected]
sudo npm install [email protected]

Then, start the PoC testing script:

sudo ./PoC.sh

Notice: some vulnerable packages start a web server on port 80, which requires root privilege. Therefore, sudo is prefixed in the above command.

Some vulnerable packages use APIs that are deprecated in Node.js v7.1+. To reproduce those vulnerabilities, try Node.js v4.6.x or Node.js v6.x.

Versions of those vulnerable packages can be found in the package.json file.
