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

Snyk changed the following file(s):

  • plugins/dynatrace/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:

This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, aims to enhance the security posture of the project by resolving four identified medium-severity vulnerabilities within the plugins/dynatrace package's yarn dependencies. The changes involve specific version upgrades for @backstage/core-components and @backstage/theme to mitigate these risks.

Highlights

  • Dependency Updates: Updated @backstage/core-components from workspace:^ to 0.8.6 and @backstage/theme from workspace:^ to 0.1.1 in plugins/dynatrace/package.json.
  • Vulnerability Fixes: These dependency updates address four medium-severity vulnerabilities: two Directory Traversal issues (SNYK-JS-TAR-15032660, SNYK-JS-TAR-15127355), one Regular Expression Denial of Service (SNYK-JS-DIFF-14917201), and one Uncontrolled Recursion (SNYK-JS-ESLINT-15102420).

Code Review

This pull request from Snyk aims to fix security vulnerabilities by updating dependencies. However, the proposed changes in plugins/dynatrace/package.json are incorrect. The PR downgrades @backstage/core-components and @backstage/theme to very old versions, replacing the workspace:^ protocol. This is a significant downgrade that will almost certainly break the plugin. I've recommended reverting these changes. The underlying vulnerabilities should be addressed differently, for example by updating the specific transitive dependencies that are vulnerable or using yarn resolutions.

critical

This change incorrectly downgrades @backstage/core-components and @backstage/theme to very old versions. It replaces the workspace:^ protocol, which links to the versions within this monorepo (e.g., 0.13.x for core-components and 0.4.x for theme), with outdated, hardcoded versions (0.8.6 and 0.1.1). This is a significant downgrade that will almost certainly break the dynatrace plugin. This change should be reverted. The security vulnerabilities should be addressed by updating the actual vulnerable (transitive) dependencies, not by downgrading these core packages.

Walkthrough

This PR updates the dependency management strategy for the Dynatrace plugin by pinning two Backstage dependencies to specific versions. The @backstage/core-components package is locked to version 0.8.6, and @backstage/theme is locked to version 0.1.1. Both dependencies were previously using the workspace protocol (workspace:^) which resolves to local monorepo packages. This change transitions these dependencies from workspace resolution to fixed external versions, potentially to ensure version stability, prepare for plugin distribution outside the monorepo, or address compatibility requirements.

Changes

File(s) Summary
plugins/dynatrace/package.json Pinned @backstage/core-components to version 0.8.6 and @backstage/theme to version 0.1.1, replacing workspace protocol (workspace:^) with fixed version numbers.
