Code Review
This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, attempts to fix several vulnerabilities by pinning @backstage/core-components and @backstage/theme to old versions. This approach is incorrect for this monorepo setup and is highly likely to cause breaking changes, build failures, or runtime errors. The dependencies have been downgraded significantly, and the use of workspace:^ has been removed, which breaks the internal dependency linking of the monorepo. I have left a critical comment explaining the issue and suggesting reverting the changes. The vulnerabilities should be addressed manually in a way that respects the monorepo architecture.

This automated change by Snyk is incorrect and will likely break the application.
Here's why:
- Incorrect Version Pinning: This change replaces
workspace:^with very old, pinned versions of@backstage/core-componentsand@backstage/theme. In a Backstage monorepo,workspace:^ensures that packages use the most recent versions of other packages from within the same monorepo. Pinning to old, published versions breaks this crucial mechanism. - Major Version Downgrade: The version of
@backstage/core-componentsis being downgraded from0.13.4-next.0(in the workspace) to0.1.0. Similarly,@backstage/themeis being downgraded from0.4.1to0.1.1. Such a massive downgrade will almost certainly introduce breaking changes and cause build or runtime errors due to API incompatibilities. - Monorepo Integrity: This change undermines the integrity of the monorepo. All plugins should be using compatible versions of core libraries to ensure consistency and prevent runtime issues (e.g., with React contexts).
The PR description also warns that yarn.lock failed to update, which is another strong indicator that this change is problematic.
The correct approach to fix these vulnerabilities would be to either:
- Update the vulnerable transitive dependencies within the
@backstage/core-componentsand@backstage/themepackages themselves. - Use Yarn's
resolutionsfield in the rootpackage.jsonto force newer, non-vulnerable versions of the transitive dependencies across the entire project.
This PR should be closed and the vulnerabilities addressed manually. I'm suggesting reverting this change.

Snyk has created this PR to fix 6 vulnerabilities in the yarn dependencies of this project.
Snyk changed the following file(s):
plugins/dynatrace/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.
