Research direction

Start with the GHSA-2gqj-wrf5-35w8 advisory and compare its listed html-to-gutenberg versions with the issue. Review the linked OpenSourceMalware case study and OSV update PR for supporting evidence. Done means adding 4.2.12, 4.2.13, 4.2.15, and 4.2.16 while leaving 4.2.14 unchanged.

Description

Advisory

https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-2gqj-wrf5-35w8

Currently lists html-to-gutenberg = 4.2.11 and = 4.2.14.

Requested change

Add:

  • 4.2.12
  • 4.2.13
  • 4.2.15
  • 4.2.16

Leave 4.2.14 as-is. Amazon Inspector reported no malware in that tarball; it is already listed.

Public sources

Same compromised maintainer (digelim / DiogoAngelim) as fetch-page-assets (GHSA-vxq2-vhm7-7mhq). 4.2.12/4.2.13 were published 2026-07-15 (same window as fetch-page-assets 1.2.10/1.2.11). 4.2.15/4.2.16 were published 2026-08-23 (same account-wide burst as fetch-page-assets 1.2.13/1.2.14). These four versions are still listed on npm.

Evidence for these four versions is correlative (same maintainer and publish windows, documented GitHub re-infection), not a separate tarball walkthrough. These GHSA malware records do not appear in this git tree, so this is an issue rather than an advisory-file PR.
