WalkthroughThis PR updates the Kafka backend plugin's dependency management strategy by transitioning from workspace-based monorepo references to pinned external package versions. Three dependencies are affected: @backstage/backend-common is pinned to version 0.24.1, @backstage/catalog-model is pinned to version 0.1.1, and express is upgraded from ^4.17.1 to ^4.22.0. This change likely aims to stabilize the plugin's dependency tree, improve version control, or prepare the plugin for independent distribution outside of a monorepo structure. Changes

Code Review
This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, aims to fix three security vulnerabilities by updating dependencies. While the update to express is appropriate, the changes to @backstage/backend-common and @backstage/catalog-model are problematic. They replace workspace:^ with pinned versions, which is incorrect for this monorepo setup. Specifically, it attempts to downgrade @backstage/catalog-model significantly, which would likely break the application. I've recommended reverting these changes to maintain the integrity of the workspace dependencies.

These dependencies were changed from workspace:^ to pinned versions. This is incorrect for a monorepo using Yarn workspaces and will likely cause issues.
@backstage/catalog-modelis being downgraded from version1.4.1(the version in your workspace) to0.1.1. This is a significant downgrade and will almost certainly break your application.@backstage/backend-commonis being upgraded, but pinning it breaks the workspace link, which can lead to inconsistent dependency resolution across your project.
The workspace:^ protocol ensures that you are using the version of the package from within your monorepo. Automated tools like Snyk sometimes fail to handle this correctly.
It's recommended to revert these changes and keep using workspace:^. If there are vulnerabilities in these packages, they should be addressed by updating the packages themselves within the monorepo or updating their transitive dependencies.

Snyk has created this PR to fix 3 vulnerabilities in the yarn dependencies of this project.
Snyk changed the following file(s):
plugins/kafka-backend/package.jsonNote 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 runyarnto update the contents of the./yarn/cachedirectory.If you are not using zero-install you can ignore this as your flow should likely be unchanged.
