Patch release with three security fixes and nothing else. The branch starts at the v1.41.0 tag and carries over only the three advisory fixes that are already on main, so none of the features merged since 1.41.0 ship here; they go out in 1.42.0.
GHSA-c8j3-f9pr-q5jg: Yarn v1 npm: aliases scanned under the wrong name, so a vulnerable package reported clean and passed --fail-on
GHSA-2v68-94gw-jr4g: repository registry configuration could direct metadata requests to internal addresses
The v1.41.1 tag goes on this branch's head, since that is what gets built and published. Merging this into main afterwards only brings the version bump and changelog, because the fixes are already there.
Yarn 1.22 records an alias as "util-lib@npm:lodash@4.17.20". The classic
parser kept the text before the final @, so a scan queried
util-lib@npm:lodash and reported no advisories for the lodash that was
actually installed.

Summary
Summary by CodeRabbit
Security
Registry lookups for project-configured registries require HTTPS and publicly resolved addresses, recheck addresses on each connection, and refuse redirects. Use user-level configuration or NPM_CONFIG_REGISTRY for trusted internal registries.
Folder names in suggested terminal and HTML fix commands are safely quoted.
Bug Fixes
Yarn Classic aliases are checked against the correct package’s advisories while retaining the installed alias name in findings and suggested fixes.
Documentation
Updated security guidance and registry configuration instructions for version 1.41.1.
This release adds registry destination checks, Yarn Classic alias handling, and shell quoting for generated fix commands. Registry checks apply to metadata lookups and override audits. Release notes and website documentation describe the registry policy and trusted configuration sources.
Registry clients and override audits use fetchRegistryMetadata. Policy-blocked outcomes reach the scanner, which can report the source configuration file. Registry configuration changes clear the packument cache. Tests cover rejected requests and blocked audit connections.
Documentation describes registry restrictions and trusted configuration sources. Package and website version metadata change to 1.41.1.

Summary
Alias parsing, graph identity, and scan coverage src/parsers/yarn-lock.ts, src/parsers/yarn-lock-graph.ts, tests/parsers/yarn-lock.test.ts
Yarn Classic parsing retains the installed alias name and records the target registry name. Graph nodes preserve both identities. Tests cover package paths, suggested fixes, and advisory lookup by registry name.
This patch release tightens registry destination checks, handles Yarn Classic npm aliases, and quotes folder names in generated fix commands. No remaining merge-blocking risk was found from the supplied evidence.

I'd reuse NPM_PUBLIC_REGISTRY instead of repeating the official-origin literal.
This literal decides whether a registry skips the address checks. The same host string also lives in src/constants.ts (NPM_PUBLIC_REGISTRY) and in DEFAULT_NPM_REGISTRY_URL in src/remediation/npm-registry.ts. If one copy drifts, the bypass could apply to a different origin than the rest of the code treats as official.
Derive the origin from the shared constant:
Proposed change
- const official = registry.origin === "https://registry.npmjs.org";+ const official = registry.origin === new URL(NPM_PUBLIC_REGISTRY).origin;
Add import { NPM_PUBLIC_REGISTRY } from "../constants.js"; at the top of the file.
As per path instructions: "Flag repeated string literals that should be constants".

I'd send this warning through logWarn so --json and --output behave like the rest of the scan.
Every other scan warning in this function goes through logWarn(..., { json: options.json, output: options.output }). For example, see the unresolved-detail warning near line 538. This one calls console.warn directly, so it ignores those options. The message is useful. A user whose project .npmrc registry is now refused learns what to do next: set NPM_CONFIG_REGISTRY. That message should follow the same suppression rules as the others.
Proposed change
- console.warn(`Warning: The registry from the project's ${source} was blocked because repository settings cannot use plain HTTP or private addresses. Set NPM_CONFIG_REGISTRY to a trusted registry for this scan.`);+ logWarn(+ `⚠ The registry from the project's ${source} was blocked because repository settings cannot use plain HTTP or private addresses. Set NPM_CONFIG_REGISTRY to a trusted registry for this scan.`,+ { json: options.json, output: options.output },+ );

- Line 137: Update the NPM_CONFIG_REGISTRY handling that returns envRegistry so
it can still select a user-configured mirror but does not itself grant
private-access authorization; derive allowPrivate only from an independent user
authorization signal.
Review comments at @tests/npm-registry.test.ts:
- Around line 8-10: Update the fetchMock setup in the test fixture to return a
fresh Response for each fetch call, rather than reusing a consumed response.
Keep the versions payload unchanged so the multi-package test exercises the
successful response path for every package.

…config
npm run and npx export a project's own .npmrc registry to the scanner as
lowercase npm_config_registry, which was treated as an explicit user setting
and granted private access. The lowercase spelling, and any spelling on
Windows, is now trusted only when it is the public registry or matches the
user's home config.
Policy errors should tell the user how to proceed.
When a lookup is blocked, the user sees "Repository registry requires HTTPS" or "Repository registry resolves to a private/reserved address". Neither message says what to do next. This matters most on Windows. There, an uppercase NPM_CONFIG_REGISTRY is no longer trusted, so a user with an internal registry set only through that variable now hits this block. The same applies to users with a project-level .npmrc.
I would add the concrete step to each message. For example, tell the user to set the registry in their user-level ~/.npmrc (or .yarnrc.yml for Yarn) so it counts as user-owned configuration. For the HTTPS case, tell them to use an https:// registry URL. The same applies to the credentials and redirect errors at Lines 25 and 48.
Example wording
- invalidAddressMessage: "Repository registry resolves to a private/reserved or invalid address",+ invalidAddressMessage: "Repository registry resolves to a private/reserved or invalid address. To allow an internal registry, set it in your user-level ~/.npmrc, not in the project.",
As per path instructions: "Error messages should tell the user what to do next."
Also applies to: 28-28
