Executing malware Background: Drive-by Downloads Background: Drive-by Downloads Setup: Making the prototype null while in the prototype creates a pointer to something random in the heap. Background: Drive-by Downloads Environment: gc( ) is a function call specific to Firefox, so the attacker would want to spray the heap with an exploit specific to firefox. Background: Drive-by Downloads Obfuscation: If the browser executing the javascript it firefox,the code will proceed to the return statement. Any other browser will exit with an error due to an unrecognized call to gc( ). Background: Drive-by Downloads Download: The return will be to a random location in the heap and due to heap-spraying it will cause shell code to be executed.

  • Notes - Javascript - Commonjs Modules
    Notes - JavaScript - CommonJS Modules Dr Nick Hayward A collection of notes &c. on plain JavaScript modules, in particular usage of CommonJS modules and Node.js. Contents Intro General usage Folders as modules package.json index.js require pattern Dynamic require for modules Module design Intro CommonJS is a module library and pattern popularised by Node.js. It is still in regular use for modern apps, both Node.js and client-side based apps. For client-side, we may use build tools, such as WebPack and Browserify, to bundle module dependencies for online usage in a browser-based environment. General usage In CommonJS, every file is a module. Each module has an implicit local scope, and the global scope needs to be accessed explicitly. The module code is wrapped in a function by the loading call, which provides this local scope. CommonJS modules may export a public interface for consumption in apps - dependencies are resolved using require function calls. require function calls are synchronous, returning the exposed interface for the required module. By default, functions in a module will be local to that module. We may then choose the functions, properties &c. to export in the public API for the module. e.g. // CONSTRUCTOR - create basic keyboard object for testing... function Keyboard(keyDetails) { ({ total: this.total, x: this.x, y: this.y, white: this.white, black: this.black } = keyDetails ); } module.exports = Keyboard; The function Keyboard is now available to other files (modules) by requiring the file, const keyboard = require('./basic1'); Local, relative modules may use the standard Unix path to define file access for the module relative to the application, e.g.
