Snyk has created this PR to fix 2 vulnerabilities in the yarn dependencies of this project.

Snyk changed the following file(s):

• plugins/search-backend-module-catalog/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.

Vulnerabilities that will be fixed with an upgrade:

Walkthrough

This PR updates the dependency management strategy for the search-backend-module-catalog plugin by replacing workspace protocol references with explicit version numbers for five Backstage packages. The changes pin specific versions: backend-plugin-api (1.6.1), backend-tasks (0.6.1), plugin-catalog-common (0.1.0), plugin-search-backend-node (0.1.2), and plugin-search-common (0.3.1). This modification ensures version stability and likely prepares the package for external distribution by removing internal workspace dependencies.
