WalkthroughThis PR updates the scaffolder-backend plugin's dependency management by transitioning from workspace protocol references to explicit semantic versions for multiple Backstage packages. The changes affect seven core Backstage dependencies including backend-common, catalog-model, config, auth-node, catalog-backend, and scaffolder-related packages. Additionally, the Express framework is upgraded from version 4.17.1 to 4.22.0. This modification appears to be part of a release preparation or dependency pinning strategy to establish specific version compatibility requirements and prepare the package for independent publication outside of a monorepo workspace structure.

Code Review
This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, aims to fix two security vulnerabilities by updating dependencies. However, the proposed changes have several critical issues that will likely break the project. As detailed in the file comment, an invalid package version is used for express, and several internal @backstage packages are being significantly downgraded. Furthermore, changing dependencies from workspace:^ to pinned versions is a major structural change for this monorepo that seems to misunderstand the project setup. The PR also notes that yarn.lock was not updated, which is essential for the fixes to take effect. These changes should be reverted, and the vulnerabilities should be addressed manually.

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.
