WalkthroughThis PR updates the search-backend plugin's package.json to transition from workspace protocol references to explicit version numbers for Backstage dependencies. Six internal Backstage packages are pinned to specific versions: backend-common (0.24.1), backend-openapi-utils (0.0.1), backend-plugin-api (0.6.19), plugin-auth-node (0.6.0), plugin-search-backend-node (0.1.2), and plugin-search-common (0.3.1). Additionally, two third-party dependencies receive version updates: express is upgraded from ^4.17.1 to ^4.22.0, and qs is updated from ^6.10.1 to ^6.14.2. This change likely prepares the package for publication or ensures consistent dependency versions across deployments. Changes

Code Review
This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, addresses two security vulnerabilities by updating dependencies in plugins/search-backend/package.json. Specifically, it changes several @backstage packages from using workspace:^ to pinned versions and upgrades express and qs to patch known vulnerabilities. While this is a good security measure, it introduces an inconsistency in dependency management. Some packages are now pinned to specific versions while others remain on workspace:^. For better maintainability and to avoid potential dependency conflicts, it would be best to either pin all @backstage dependencies or revert them all to use workspace:^ and manage versions at the workspace level.

This change introduces an inconsistency in how @backstage dependencies are managed. Some packages are now pinned to specific versions, while others like @backstage/config, @backstage/errors, etc., still use workspace:^. It's generally better to be consistent. Either all @backstage packages in this package.json should be pinned, or they should all use workspace:^ to inherit versions from the monorepo root. Since this is a monorepo setup, using workspace:^ is the idiomatic approach. Pinning versions here can lead to version conflicts and maintenance overhead. I recommend reverting these to use workspace:^ and managing the versions at the workspace level.

Snyk has created this PR to fix 2 vulnerabilities in the yarn dependencies of this project.
Snyk changed the following file(s):
plugins/search-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.
Vulnerabilities that will be fixed with an upgrade:
