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

Snyk changed the following file(s):

  • plugins/rollbar/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.

Code Review

This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, aims to fix four security vulnerabilities by updating dependencies. However, the proposed changes in plugins/rollbar/package.json are problematic and should not be merged as is. The PR replaces workspace-local dependencies (workspace:^) with pinned, significantly older versions of @backstage/core-components and @backstage/theme. This breaks the monorepo's dependency structure and can lead to build failures or runtime errors. Furthermore, the PR description itself warns that yarn.lock was not updated, making the fix incomplete. I've left a critical comment recommending to revert these changes and instead address the transitive dependency vulnerabilities using Yarn's resolutions in the root package.json.

critical

Pinning @backstage/core-components and @backstage/theme to specific, older versions breaks the yarn workspace setup. This will likely cause dependency issues and inconsistencies within the monorepo. The versions are being downgraded from what is in the workspace (@backstage/core-components is 0.13.4-next.0 and @backstage/theme is 0.4.1).

Instead of pinning these dependencies, the underlying vulnerabilities in transitive dependencies should be addressed, for example by using resolutions in the root package.json to enforce newer, non-vulnerable versions of packages like tar, diff, and eslint across the entire workspace. Please revert this change and investigate a workspace-wide fix.

Walkthrough

This PR updates the dependency management strategy for the Rollbar 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 to version 0.1.1. This change moves away from monorepo workspace resolution to explicit version pinning, which typically indicates preparation for independent package distribution or the need to maintain compatibility with specific versions of these core Backstage dependencies.

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