Code Review
This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, attempts to fix two security vulnerabilities by pinning several @backstage dependencies to specific versions. However, this approach is incorrect for a monorepo using Yarn workspaces as it replaces workspace: specifiers with fixed, and significantly older, versions. This will likely break the build and introduce many regressions. The correct approach is to update the vulnerable transitive dependencies (ajv and qs) within their respective packages in the monorepo. I have left a critical review comment with a suggestion to revert these changes and outlined the correct path to remediation.

This automated change incorrectly attempts to fix vulnerabilities by pinning workspace dependencies to old, fixed versions. This will likely break the project.
Issues:
- Breaks Yarn Workspaces: Replacing
workspace:^with fixed versions defeats the purpose of a monorepo setup, causing packages to use outdated, published code instead of local, up-to-date sources. - Major Downgrades: The pinned versions are significant downgrades (e.g.,
@backstage/catalog-modelfrom1.4.1to0.1.1), which will almost certainly cause breaking changes. - Incorrect Fix Strategy: The vulnerabilities are in transitive dependencies (
ajvandqs). The fix should be to update these dependencies in their own packages (packages/catalog-model/package.jsonandpackages/core-components/package.json), not to alter the dependencies of@backstage/dev-utils.
I'm suggesting to revert these changes. The vulnerabilities should be addressed by updating the underlying dependencies directly in their respective packages.

Snyk has created this PR to fix 2 vulnerabilities in the yarn dependencies of this project.
Snyk changed the following file(s):
packages/dev-utils/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:
