Snyk has created this PR to fix 5 vulnerabilities in the yarn dependencies of this project.

Snyk changed the following file(s):

  • plugins/code-climate/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.

Code Review

This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, aims to fix several security vulnerabilities by changing the version of the @backstage/theme package. However, the proposed change from workspace:^ to a pinned version 0.1.1 is a significant downgrade and is not the correct way to handle dependencies in this monorepo. This change can introduce breaking changes and inconsistencies. The recommended approach is to address the vulnerabilities within the workspace packages themselves.

"@backstage/core-plugin-api": "workspace:^",
"@backstage/plugin-catalog-react": "workspace:^",
"@backstage/theme": "workspace:^",
"@backstage/theme": "0.1.1",

critical

This change replaces the workspace dependency workspace:^ with a pinned version 0.1.1. This is a significant downgrade, as the version of @backstage/theme within this monorepo is 0.4.1 (as seen in packages/theme/package.json). Using an older, pinned version breaks the integrity of the monorepo, can lead to version mismatches, and may cause runtime errors or unexpected behavior because other parts of the application will be using a different version of the theme.

While this change is intended to fix security vulnerabilities, the correct approach in a monorepo is to update the dependencies within the @backstage/theme package itself or other relevant packages to resolve the vulnerabilities, rather than pinning to an old version of a workspace package.

Suggested change
"@backstage/theme": "0.1.1",
"@backstage/theme": "workspace:^",
