WalkthroughThis PR updates the dependency management strategy for the catalog-backend-module-openapi plugin by replacing workspace protocol references with explicit version numbers. Five Backstage packages are affected: backend-common (0.24.1), catalog-model (0.1.1), config (0.1.1), plugin-catalog-backend (2.0.0), and plugin-catalog-common (0.1.0). This transition from monorepo workspace dependencies to pinned versions suggests preparation for package release or a move toward more stable dependency management, ensuring consistent versioning across environments and reducing potential version conflicts.

Code Review
This pull request from Snyk attempts to fix security vulnerabilities by pinning dependencies. However, the implementation is incorrect for this monorepo and will likely break the build. It replaces workspace: dependencies with fixed versions, including several severe downgrades. This PR should be closed, and the vulnerabilities should be fixed using Yarn's resolutions feature in the root package.json to upgrade the transitive dependencies (ajv and qs) directly.

This automated change from Snyk is incorrect and will likely break your application. It should not be merged as is.
Here's why:
-
Breaks Monorepo Dependency Linking: The change replaces
workspace:^dependencies with fixed versions from the public registry. In a monorepo using Yarn workspaces, this is a critical error. It breaks the linkage between local packages, meaning this package will use outdated, published code instead of the current code from your local workspace. This will lead to major inconsistencies and break local development workflows. -
Major Version Downgrades: Several of the pinned versions are severe downgrades from what's in your workspace, which will almost certainly introduce breaking API changes:
@backstage/catalog-model: Pinned to0.1.1, but the workspace version appears to be1.4.1.@backstage/config: Pinned to0.1.1, but the workspace version appears to be1.0.8.@backstage/plugin-catalog-common: Pinned to0.1.0, but the workspace version appears to be1.0.15.
Correct Way to Fix This
The goal is to fix vulnerabilities in ajv and qs. Instead of these disruptive changes, the vulnerabilities should be addressed at the source:
-
Use Yarn Resolutions: The recommended approach is to add a
resolutionsfield to the rootpackage.jsonof your monorepo to force non-vulnerable versions of the transitive dependencies across all packages. For example:"resolutions": { "ajv": "^8.12.0", "qs": "^6.5.3" }
After adding this, run
yarn installto update theyarn.lockfile. This will fix the security vulnerabilities without breaking your monorepo's dependency structure.

Snyk changed the following file(s):
plugins/catalog-backend-module-openapi/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.
