Snyk has created this PR to fix 2 vulnerabilities in the yarn dependencies of this project.

Snyk changed the following file(s):

  • plugins/scaffolder/package.json

Note 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 run yarn to update the contents of the ./yarn/cache directory.
If you are not using zero-install you can ignore this as your flow should likely be unchanged.

⚠️ Warning
Failed to update the yarn.lock, please update manually before merging.

Vulnerabilities that will be fixed with an upgrade:

Walkthrough

This PR updates the scaffolder plugin's dependencies, transitioning from workspace protocol references to specific version numbers for three Backstage packages (@backstage/errors, @backstage/plugin-scaffolder-react, and @backstage/types). The most significant change is a major version upgrade of @rjsf/core from v3.2.1 to v5.0.0, which introduces breaking changes that may require code adjustments. Additionally, the qs package is upgraded from v6.9.4 to v6.14.2. These updates standardize dependency versioning and bring in newer features and security fixes, though the @rjsf/core upgrade will likely necessitate API compatibility updates.

Changes

File(s) Summary
plugins/scaffolder/package.json Updated Backstage dependencies from workspace protocol to specific versions: @backstage/errors (0.1.1), @backstage/plugin-scaffolder-react (1.0.0), and @backstage/types (0.1.1). Upgraded @rjsf/core from ^3.2.1 to ^5.0.0 (major version with breaking changes) and qs from ^6.9.4 to ^6.14.2.

Code Review

This pull request, generated by Snyk, aims to fix two security vulnerabilities by updating dependencies. While the upgrades for qs and @rjsf/core are correct to address the vulnerabilities, the PR introduces some critical issues.

Several internal @backstage packages are incorrectly downgraded to old, pinned versions instead of using the workspace: protocol. This will likely break the monorepo build and must be reverted.

Additionally, @rjsf/core is upgraded across two major versions (v3 to v5). This is a significant change that likely introduces breaking changes not handled by this automated PR. Careful migration will be needed to ensure the scaffolder's form functionality remains intact.

Please see the detailed comments for suggestions.

critical

This PR incorrectly downgrades several internal @backstage packages (@backstage/errors, @backstage/plugin-scaffolder-react, @backstage/types) by pinning them to old, specific versions instead of using the workspace:^ protocol. This is incorrect for a monorepo setup and will likely break the build. These dependencies should be reverted to use workspace:^ to ensure they use the local, up-to-date versions from the repository.

high

This is a major version upgrade for @rjsf/core from v3 to v5. This is a significant jump and likely includes breaking changes that could affect form rendering in the scaffolder. The automated tool that created this PR may not have accounted for these. It is recommended to review the @rjsf/core v4 and v5 release notes and update the code accordingly to ensure compatibility.
