Snyk has created this PR to fix 4 vulnerabilities in the yarn dependencies of this project.

Snyk changed the following file(s):

  • plugins/org-react/package.json

Note for zero-installs users

If you are using the Yarn feature zero-installs that was introduced in Yarn V2, note that this PR does not update the .yarn/cache/ directory meaning this code cannot be pulled and immediately developed on as one would expect for a zero-install project - you will need to run yarn to update the contents of the ./yarn/cache directory.
If you are not using zero-install you can ignore this as your flow should likely be unchanged.

⚠️ Warning
Failed to update the yarn.lock, please update manually before merging.

Summary of Changes

Hello @q1blue, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request is an automated security update initiated by Snyk to mitigate several vulnerabilities found in the project's dependencies. The core intent is to enhance the application's security posture by upgrading specific package versions, thereby reducing exposure to known exploits like Directory Traversal and Regular Expression Denial of Service. The changes primarily involve updating dependency version specifications in a package.json file.

Highlights

  • Vulnerability Fixes: This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, addresses 4 identified security vulnerabilities within the project's yarn dependencies.
  • Dependency Updates: The plugins/org-react/package.json file has been updated to specify exact versions for @backstage/core-components (now 0.8.6) and @backstage/theme (now 0.1.1).
  • Yarn Zero-Installs Consideration: A specific note is included for users leveraging Yarn's zero-installs feature, advising that the .yarn/cache directory may require a manual yarn run to update its contents after this PR.
  • Manual yarn.lock Update Required: The automated process failed to update the yarn.lock file, which will require manual intervention before this pull request can be merged.

Code Review

This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, aims to fix security vulnerabilities by changing dependency versions in plugins/org-react/package.json. However, the proposed changes introduce a significant and risky downgrade of @backstage/core-components and @backstage/theme to very old versions. This will almost certainly cause breaking changes and application failures. Additionally, it replaces workspace: specifiers with pinned versions, which is detrimental to the monorepo development workflow. I strongly advise against merging this PR. The vulnerabilities should be addressed manually, likely by updating dependencies at the repository's root level.

critical

These automated changes introduce a critical risk by severely downgrading core dependencies. This will likely break the plugin.

  • @backstage/core-components is downgraded from a workspace version (around 0.13.x) to 0.8.6.
  • @backstage/theme is downgraded from a workspace version (around 0.4.x) to 0.1.1.

Such a massive version downgrade will almost certainly introduce breaking API changes and cause the application to fail. Furthermore, removing the workspace:^ protocol breaks the intended monorepo workflow, preventing local development on these packages from being reflected here.

Given these issues and the yarn.lock update failure mentioned in the PR description, this change should be rejected. The underlying vulnerabilities should be investigated and resolved manually, likely at the monorepo root.

Walkthrough

This PR updates dependency management for the org-react plugin by replacing workspace protocol references with pinned versions for two Backstage packages. The @backstage/core-components dependency is locked to version 0.8.6, and @backstage/theme is locked to version 0.1.1. This change moves away from monorepo workspace resolution to explicit version pinning, which typically indicates a requirement for specific version compatibility or preparation for publishing the package externally to the monorepo environment.

Changes

File(s) Summary
plugins/org-react/package.json Replaced workspace protocol (workspace:^) with pinned versions for @backstage/core-components (0.8.6) and @backstage/theme (0.1.1) dependencies.
