Code Review
This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, attempts to fix four security vulnerabilities by updating dependencies. However, the proposed changes are incorrect for this monorepo setup. It replaces workspace-relative package versions (workspace:^) with fixed, older versions from the public registry for @backstage/core-components and @backstage/theme. This will break the integrity of the yarn workspace and likely cause build or runtime failures due to version mismatches and downgrades. I've left a critical comment explaining the issue and recommending reverting the changes. The vulnerabilities should be addressed by updating the transitive dependencies within the workspace packages and then updating the yarn.lock file.

These changes break the yarn workspace setup by replacing workspace:^ with pinned, older versions of @backstage/core-components and @backstage/theme. This will likely cause build failures or runtime issues as other packages in the monorepo expect workspace-local versions.
@backstage/core-componentsis being downgraded from its workspace version (0.13.4-next.0) to0.8.6.@backstage/themeis being downgraded from its workspace version (0.4.1) to0.1.1.
The correct approach to fix the vulnerabilities is to identify the vulnerable transitive dependencies within the workspace packages (e.g., @backstage/core-components, @backstage/theme) and update them directly. After updating, run yarn to regenerate the yarn.lock file. It is recommended to revert these changes.

plugins/shortcuts/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.
