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

Snyk changed the following file(s):

  • plugins/gocd/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.

Walkthrough

This PR updates dependency management in the GoCD plugin by transitioning from workspace protocol references to pinned versions for three internal Backstage dependencies. The @backstage/catalog-model and @backstage/theme packages are pinned to version 0.1.1, while @backstage/plugin-catalog-react is pinned to version 1.0.0. Additionally, the 'qs' package is upgraded from version 6.10.1 to 6.14.2, which likely addresses security vulnerabilities or incorporates important bug fixes. These changes improve dependency stability and security posture of the GoCD plugin.

Changes

File(s) Summary
plugins/gocd/package.json Updated three Backstage internal dependencies from workspace protocol references (workspace:^) to pinned versions (@backstage/catalog-model: 0.1.1, @backstage/plugin-catalog-react: 1.0.0, @backstage/theme: 0.1.1) and upgraded 'qs' package from ^6.10.1 to ^6.14.2.

Code Review

This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, aims to fix two security vulnerabilities by updating dependencies. While the update to the qs package is correct and addresses one vulnerability, the changes to the @backstage/* packages are incorrect. The PR replaces workspace:^ specifiers with pinned, outdated versions. This is a common issue with automated tools in a monorepo context and will likely break the build or cause runtime errors due to version mismatches. I have recommended reverting the changes for the @backstage/* packages while keeping the qs update.

critical

The changes to the @backstage/* dependencies are incorrect. Changing them from workspace:^ to fixed, older versions will likely break the build or cause runtime issues in this monorepo. The workspace: protocol is essential for linking local packages in a yarn workspace.

For example, @backstage/catalog-model is being downgraded from the workspace version (which is 1.4.1) to 0.1.1. This is a significant downgrade that will cause API incompatibilities.

The automated Snyk fix seems to have incorrectly resolved dependencies to address the ajv vulnerability. The correct approach is to rely on the workspace version, which should have its own dependencies managed correctly.

I recommend reverting these specific changes to use workspace:^.

    "@backstage/catalog-model": "workspace:^",
    "@backstage/core-components": "workspace:^",
    "@backstage/core-plugin-api": "workspace:^",
    "@backstage/errors": "workspace:^",
    "@backstage/plugin-catalog-react": "workspace:^",
    "@backstage/theme": "workspace:^"
