According to the latest official docs on mapping the epub:type referrer is now called backlink.

So perhaps they have not updated epubcheck to meet their own latest standards.
I created a new epub3 file with the following contents:

Spoiler:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html>

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:epub="http://www.idpf.org/2007/ops">
<head>
  <title>title</title>
</head>

<body>
  <section epub:type="endnotes" role="doc-endnotes">
    <ol>
      <li id="en1" epub:type="endnote"><p><a href="Section0001.xhtml#en1" epub:type="backlink" role="doc-backlink">[1]</a> TEXT_OF_ENDNOTE_HERE</p></li>
    </ol>
  </section>
</body>
</html>


(I added a circular dummy backlink.)

EPUBCheck 2.5.1 didn't complain about it.
Here's the partial .json output:

Spoiler:
Code:
  "checker" : {
    "path" : "C:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Local\\sigil-ebook\\sigil\\plugins\\EpubCheck\\temp.epub",
    "filename" : "temp.epub",
    "checkerVersion" : "5.2.1",
    "checkDate" : "06-20-2025 17:47:20",
    "elapsedTime" : 41944,
    "nFatal" : 0,
    "nError" : 0,
    "nWarning" : 0,
    "nUsage" : 0
  },


Most likely, philja is using an older version or there's another syntax issue in his code.
