fix: clear all high-severity npm audit findings in the Lighthouse CI chain - #703
Conversation
…I chain The Dependency Security Audit job (npm audit --audit-level=high) had been failing on 11 high and 1 moderate finding. Every one of them sat in devDependencies; the three shipped dependencies (@asciidoctor/core, @tailwindcss/typography, echarts) were never affected. npm's own suggestion was useless: `npm audit fix --force` proposed downgrading @lhci/cli from 0.15.1 to 0.6.1, nine minor versions back. 0.15.1 is the latest release, so there was no upstream fix to take. Two steps instead: 1. `npm audit fix` (lockfile only, no range changes) cleared brace-expansion, ip-address, js-yaml, nanoid and undici (7.28.0 -> 7.29.0, reached via jsdom, not via lhci). 2. Three overrides pull the transitive Lighthouse chain forward under @lhci/cli 0.15.1: - lighthouse ^13.4.1 (was 12.6.1) - puppeteer-core ^25.7.0 (was 24.39.1) - @puppeteer/browsers ^3.2.0 (was 2.x) The last one matters most: extract-zip was flagged with range=*, so no version of it is safe. @puppeteer/browsers 3.x replaced it with modern-tar, which removes the package from the tree entirely rather than patching it. Carets rather than the >= used by the existing overrides: those pin a security minimum, these pin a compatibility ceiling. A future lighthouse 14 could break @lhci/cli silently, and the Lighthouse job only runs on main, so the breakage would surface after merge. Remaining: 2 moderate findings (uuid <11.1.1 and @lhci/cli itself), both below the job's threshold. Forcing uuid to 11.x was not attempted because @lhci/cli calls the v8 API. Verified: `npm audit --audit-level=high` exits 0; `lhci autorun` completes against the deployed site with lighthouse 13.4.1 confirmed in the report (Performance 0.95, Accessibility 1.00, Best Practices 0.96, SEO 1.00, all assertions passing); 121 unit tests and 38 E2E tests pass; full build pipeline exits 0.

The previous commit's lockfile was written by an incremental npm install against an existing node_modules and never recorded puppeteer-core 25's new transitive tree (proxy-agent, pac-proxy-agent, socks-proxy-agent, get-uri and friends). npm install tolerates that; npm ci does not, so all four CI jobs failed at the install step with EUSAGE. Regenerated with npm install --package-lock-only and verified the way CI actually installs: npm ci in a clean directory exits 0.
npm 11 and npm 10 disagree on this tree. npm 11 hoists a single proxy-agent@6.5.0 and considers the tree consistent; npm 10 needs proxy-agent@8.0.2 nested under puppeteer-core, because lighthouse 13 requires the 8.x line while the older hoisted 6.5.0 remains for another dependent. npm ci therefore passed locally on npm 11 and failed on CI's npm 10 with the same EUSAGE error as before. Regenerated with npx npm@10 install --package-lock-only and installed via npm@10 ci, so no npm 11 install writes the file back. Verified with npm ci under both npm 10 and npm 11: both exit 0.

All checks pass now, including Dependency Security Audit. Two follow-up commits were needed, and the reason is worth recording for whoever next regenerates this lockfile. npm 11 and npm 10 resolve this tree differently. npm 11 hoists a single Worse, it silently reverts: running The working recipe on a machine with npm 11: npx npm@10 install --package-lock-only # regenerate

Caught by CodeRabbit on LLM-Coding#703. lighthouse 13.4.1 declares engines node >=22.19, puppeteer-core 25.7.0 and @puppeteer/browsers 3.2.0 declare >=22.12; the job ran node 20. engine-strict is set nowhere, so npm ci only warns and installs anyway. That is why every check on this PR was green: the mismatch would not have appeared at install time but when lhci actually ran -- and the Lighthouse job is gated on 'refs/heads/main' && push, so it never runs on a PR. The breakage would have surfaced on main, after merge. My local verification missed it for the same reason: this machine runs node 22.20, so lhci autorun succeeded here regardless. Only the Lighthouse job is bumped; no other job runs lighthouse. The five remaining node-version: '20' entries are untouched, though GitHub already warns that node 20 is deprecated.

@coderabbitai Good catch, and it was a real gap rather than a nit. Fixed in 182b964. Verified the claim before acting on it — the engine declarations are worse than the one package you flagged:
The Lighthouse job ran What makes this worth spelling out: nothing would have caught it. My own local verification missed it for a symmetric reason: this machine runs node 22.20, so Pinning lighthouse back to a node-20-compatible line was not an option — that is where the advisories are (12.x and everything up to 13.3.0). So the node version moves instead. Scope kept minimal: only the Lighthouse job is bumped to 22, since it is the only job that runs lighthouse. The five other |

Makes the Dependency Security Audit job green again. It had been failing on 11 high and 1 moderate finding.
Scope first
All findings sat in devDependencies. The three dependencies that actually ship —
@asciidoctor/core,@tailwindcss/typography,echarts— were never affected, so no visitor of the site was ever exposed. This is CI hygiene, not an incident.Why the obvious fix was wrong
npm audit fix --forceproposed downgrading@lhci/clifrom0.15.1to0.6.1— nine minor versions back.0.15.1is the current release, so there was no upstream fix to adopt and no newer version to move to.What was done instead
1.
npm audit fix— lockfile only, no version ranges changed. Clearedbrace-expansion,ip-address,js-yaml,nanoid, andundici(7.28.0→7.29.0; noteundiciarrives viajsdom, not via lhci).2. Three overrides pull the transitive Lighthouse chain forward under an unchanged
@lhci/cli@0.15.1:lighthousepuppeteer-core@puppeteer/browsersThe third one is the interesting one.
extract-zipwas flagged withrange=*— every published version is affected, so no override could patch it.@puppeteer/browsers3.x replacedextract-zipwithmodern-tar, which drops the package from the tree altogether. That is why the chain resolves at all.Carets here, rather than the
>=used by the two existing overrides: those pin a security minimum, these pin a compatibility ceiling. A futurelighthouse14 could break@lhci/clisilently, and the Lighthouse job runs only onmain— so that breakage would surface after merge, not in the PR.The pre-existing
minimatchandcookieoverrides are untouched.What remains, deliberately
Two moderate findings stay:
uuid <11.1.1and an advisory against@lhci/cliitself. Both are below the job's--audit-level=highthreshold. Forcinguuidto 11.x was not attempted —@lhci/clicalls the v8 API, and trading a moderate advisory for a broken Lighthouse run is a bad deal.Verification
npm audit --audit-level=high→ exit 0lhci autoruncompletes end to end, withlighthouseVersion: 13.4.1confirmed in the report itself. Performance 0.95, Accessibility 1.00, Best Practices 0.96, SEO 1.00 — every assertion passing.
