Fixes SOU-1362
Refreshes the
yarn.lockentry fortar(transitive vianode-gyp/cacache) from7.5.13to7.5.16to address CVE-2026-53655, where node-tar applies a PAXsize=override to intermediary GNU long-name/long-link headers, causing a tar parser interpretation differential (file smuggling).The existing
^7.4.3range already admitted the patched version, so this is a lockfile-only refresh (yarn up -R tar) with nopackage.jsonchange.
