Because PostHog's "Talk to a human" chat instead gets a grumpy gatekeeping robot (which also doesn't know how to get you to a working urgent support link), and there's nothing prominently on their home page or github about this:

Hey PostHog! What version do we need to avoid?

View on HN

co-founder here. We mentioned it in the main thread about this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46032650 and on status.posthog.com

- posthog-node 4.18.1, 5.13.3 and 5.11.3

- posthog-js 1.297.3

- posthog-react-native 4.11.1

- posthog-docusaurus 2.0.6

If you make sure you're on the latest version you should be good.

Thanks. Also - maybe change "talk to a human" to "talk to a grumpy robot" :)

Hm did you click on "help" (on the right side) -> "Email our support engineer" when logged in?

Ahhh, TBH I didn't look on the right. I dug through the menu on the left, thinking the right hand bar (which has the rotated labels) was all getting-started/docs related things. In my defense I have a fairly wide monitor and tend to full-screen the browser.

Your status page isn't clear, but are all versions between the compromised and "safe to install" versions compromised or just the ones listed?

For example I installed `posthog-react-native` version `4.12.4` which is between the `4.11.1` version which is compromised and the safe to install version `4.13.0`. Is that version compromised or not?

The only compromised versions are the ones listed. Any other versions are fine.

Thank you for the confirmation. I have updated to 4.13.0 anyway.

This is now the main thread. Though dang likes to merge dupes.

Have a slack channel with them, these are the versions they mentioned: posthog-node 4.18.1 posthog-js 1.297.3 posthog-react-native 4.11.1 posthog-docusaurus 2.0.6
