Sourcemapper

Sourcemapper is a bit of golang to parse a sourcemap, as generated by webpack or similar, and spit out the original JavaScript files, recreating the source tree based on the file paths in the sourcemap.

An article explaining its purpose is available here: https://pulsesecurity.co.nz/articles/javascript-from-sourcemaps

Install

If you have a recent version of Go installed:

go install github.com/denandz/sourcemapper@latest

Otherwise you can clone and build:

git clone https://github.com/denandz/sourcemapper
cd sourcemapper
go get
go build

If you are running BlackArch Linux:

pacman -S sourcemapper

Usage

:~$ ./sourcemapper
Usage of ./sourcemapper:
  -header value
    	A header to send with the request, similar to curl's -H. Can be set multiple times, EG: "./sourcemapper --header "Cookie: session=bar" --header "Authorization: blerp"
  -help
    	Show help
  -insecure
    	Ignore invalid TLS certificates
  -jsurl string
    	URL to JavaScript file - cannot be used with url
  -output string
    	Source file output directory - REQUIRED
  -proxy string
    	Proxy URL
  -url string
    	URL or path to the Sourcemap file - cannot be used with jsurl

Extracting SourceMaps from .map URLs or local files

The following example shows sourcemapper reading a .map file from Dockerhub. Note, Dockerhub have since removed this map file so the literal command below will not provide this output any more.

Sourcemapper will download or read the map file at url, and then spit the sources out into the directory defined by output. url can be either an URL, or a path to a map file on disk. Extracting a sourcemap to a file can get around sourcemaps configured with sourceMappingURL=data:application/json;.... base64 blob... by decoding the blob into a file, then passing the file path to sourcemapper. Alternatively, data: URL can be handled by directly parsing the JavaScript file as discussed in the following section.

Extracting SourceMaps directly from JavaScript files

sourcemapper can read a JavaScript file from a URL and try to determine whether a sourcemap reference is present. If it is, sourcemapper will download and parse the sourcemap. Absolute, relative and data: sourcemap references are currently supported. sourcemapper follows the rules outlined in https://tc39.es/source-map-spec/#linking-generated-code.

The following shows an example of an inline sourcemap being parsed by processing the JavaScript file directly:

$ ./sourcemapper -output test -jsurl http://localhost:8080/main.js

Note: sourcemapper will retrieve any URL referenced as a sourcemap, so a malicious JavaScript file parsed with sourcemapper can force sourcemapper to make a GET request to any URL
