Code Review
This Snyk PR updates dependencies to fix 3 vulnerabilities. While the intent is good, there are significant issues. As noted in the PR description, yarn.lock is not updated, which is critical to fix before merging to ensure dependency changes are applied correctly. Additionally, several internal packages are changed from using the workspace: protocol to being pinned to specific versions. This can break the monorepo's dependency integrity and is a significant change to the dependency strategy. I've added a comment with more details.

Changing these dependencies from workspace:^ to pinned versions is a significant alteration of the dependency strategy for this monorepo. The workspace: protocol is designed to ensure that packages within the monorepo use the most up-to-date local versions of each other. By pinning to specific published versions, you lose this benefit and risk introducing inconsistencies or using stale code if other packages in the monorepo are updated. It is strongly recommended to resolve the underlying vulnerabilities in a way that preserves the workspace: protocol, for instance by updating the source packages within the monorepo.
WalkthroughThis PR updates the dependency management configuration for the permission-backend plugin package. The changes transition from workspace protocol references (workspace:^) to explicit version numbers for five Backstage packages, ensuring consistent versioning across different environments. This modification is typically performed when preparing a package for publication or distribution outside of a monorepo workspace. Additionally, the Express framework dependency is upgraded from version 4.17.1 to 4.22.0, incorporating important security patches and bug fixes that have been released in the interim versions.

Snyk has created this PR to fix 3 vulnerabilities in the yarn dependencies of this project.
Snyk changed the following file(s):
plugins/permission-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.
