Code Review
This pull request from Snyk attempts to fix a vulnerability by changing dependencies in plugins/explore-react/package.json. However, the change is incorrect and critically flawed. It replaces workspace:^ references with hardcoded versions, and for @backstage/core-plugin-api, it pins to version 0.1.0, which is a severe downgrade from the current workspace version of 1.5.3. This will almost certainly break the build and application functionality. The workspace: protocol is crucial for this monorepo, and removing it is not the correct approach to fix this issue. These changes should be rejected, and the vulnerability should be addressed by properly managing dependencies within the yarn workspace.

These dependency changes introduce a critical issue. The @backstage/core-plugin-api is being downgraded to version 0.1.0, while the current version in the workspace is 1.5.3. This is a major downgrade that will likely cause build failures and runtime errors.
Furthermore, replacing workspace:^ with pinned versions breaks the monorepo's dependency management strategy. Packages within this workspace are intended to reference each other using the workspace: protocol to ensure they use the code from the same monorepo, not from a published registry. The correct way to fix vulnerabilities is to update the dependencies within the workspace and then update the yarn.lock file, not to pin to old, published versions.

Snyk has created this PR to fix 1 vulnerabilities in the yarn dependencies of this project.
Snyk changed the following file(s):
plugins/explore-react/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.
