Code Review
This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, aims to fix three security vulnerabilities by updating dependencies. However, the proposed changes in package.json are highly problematic. It replaces monorepo workspace dependencies (workspace:^) with pinned, and in two cases, severely outdated versions of @backstage packages. This is a significant regression that will likely break the build or cause runtime errors. I have added a critical review comment suggesting to revert these changes and instead use resolutions in the root package.json to address the transitive vulnerabilities, which is a safer and more appropriate approach in a monorepo setup. Furthermore, the PR notes that the yarn.lock file was not updated, which requires manual intervention and adds to the risk.

These changes are incorrect and will likely break the package. They replace workspace:^ with pinned versions, and in the case of @backstage/config and @backstage/errors, downgrade them to very old versions (e.g., @backstage/config from 1.0.8 to 0.1.1). This breaks the monorepo workspace linking and introduces a high risk of incompatibility issues.
While this is an attempt to fix transitive vulnerabilities, this is not the correct approach. A better way to handle this is to use resolutions in the root package.json to force a secure version of the vulnerable transitive dependencies (like tar or eslint).
I strongly recommend reverting this change and using workspace:^ as it was before. Then, address the vulnerabilities via resolutions.

plugins/scaffolder-backend-module-sentry/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.
