Summary
I noticed one of the tests installs a package from registry
hxxps://example-registry-doesnt-exist[.]com
with the--registry
flag, with the intent to test the case where the registry doesn't exist.However someone could register that domain and serve a package with malicious lifecycle scripts (e.g.
"preinstall"
)(I managed to register and park that to domain to prevent such scenario.)
This PR makes the following improvements:
.com
with the.invalid
TLD (RFC 6761)--ignore-scripts
since lifecycle scripts are not relevant for this testTest plan
