WalkthroughThis PR updates critical dependencies in the GraphQL backend plugin, focusing on major version upgrades and dependency management improvements. The most significant change is upgrading Apollo Server from v4 to v5.4.0, which represents a major version bump that may introduce breaking changes and new features. Express is updated from v4.17.1 to v4.22.0 to incorporate security patches and stability improvements. Additionally, three Backstage internal dependencies are transitioned from workspace protocol references to pinned specific versions, ensuring consistent and predictable versioning across different deployment environments.

Code Review
This pull request from Snyk aims to fix two security vulnerabilities by updating dependencies. While updating dependencies is important, the current changes introduce critical issues by incorrectly handling yarn workspace dependencies. Specifically, it replaces workspace:^ references with pinned versions, and in some cases, these are significant downgrades (@backstage/config from 1.0.8 to 0.1.1, and @backstage/plugin-catalog-graphql from ~0.3.22 to 0.1.1). This will almost certainly break the application. Additionally, the PR description notes that yarn.lock was not updated, which is another sign of problems with the automated update process. The changes to @backstage dependencies should be reverted, and the upgrade should be performed manually to ensure workspace integrity and correct version resolution. The update of @apollo/server to a new major version (^5.4.0) should also be tested carefully for breaking changes.

These changes incorrectly replace workspace:^ dependencies with pinned versions, leading to significant and breaking downgrades for several packages. This approach is not suitable for a monorepo and will likely break the application.
@backstage/configis downgraded from1.0.8to0.1.1.@backstage/plugin-catalog-graphqlis downgraded from~0.3.22to0.1.1.
Please revert these changes to use the workspace:^ protocol. The underlying vulnerabilities should be addressed by updating the packages within the workspace correctly, not by pinning to incorrect and outdated versions.

Snyk changed the following file(s):
plugins/graphql-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.
