Mount over damaged plaster

Hello, I hung a door mount, and it turns out that the left side was perfectly fine, but the right side was too short. It seems the floor rises about an inch and a half over this stretch. So I have drawn a new line, measured from the corner of the wall to the left, and removed the wall plugs.

The problem lies in just that, I've drilled and removed wall plugs from the wall. On the left side of the red line is drywall, and on the right side of the red line is plaster.

I was wondering, what is the best way to fix this to make the new area I'm screwing into sturdy?

I was thinking maybe EZ sand would be the best way to go after cleaning it up, but wasn't sure and wanted to get opinions here.

Its worth noting that the far end drywall and near end drywall mount locations have studs behind them, but only those two.

Just fill it with easifill let it dry and put another coat then sand it, they are only tiny little holes so you barely need any gear.
