Code Review
This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, addresses three security vulnerabilities by upgrading dependencies. The upgrade of @apollo/server to a new major version (^5.4.0) is necessary to patch a high-severity ReDoS vulnerability. However, the change to @backstage/types appears to be an error. It incorrectly downgrades the package to version 0.1.1 and breaks the monorepo's workspace convention by removing workspace:^. This critical issue, detailed in my comment, needs to be fixed before merging. After correcting the @backstage/types dependency, you will need to manually run yarn to update the yarn.lock file, as noted in the pull request description.

This automated change incorrectly modifies the version of @backstage/types. It changes from workspace:^ to a hardcoded, older version 0.1.1. This is problematic for several reasons:
- Breaks Monorepo Dependency Management: It deviates from the established pattern of using
workspace:^for packages within this monorepo, which can lead to an inconsistent dependency graph. - Significant Downgrade: This is a major downgrade from the workspace version (which is
1.1.0according to the repository files), likely introducing type incompatibilities and build failures, especially since other packages like@backstage/catalog-modelrely on the workspace version. - Automated Tool Error: This change appears to be an error by the Snyk automation, which is also suggested by the warning in the PR description:
Failed to update the yarn.lock, please update manually before merging.
This dependency should be reverted to workspace:^ to maintain consistency and correctness within the monorepo.

WalkthroughThis PR updates dependencies for the catalog-graphql plugin, focusing on two key changes. The Apollo Server package is upgraded from version 4.x to 5.4.0, representing a major version bump that may introduce breaking changes and new features from the v5 release line. Additionally, the @backstage/types dependency is changed from using the workspace protocol to a pinned external version 0.1.1, ensuring a fixed version rather than a workspace-relative dependency. These changes modernize the plugin's dependencies and establish more explicit version control. Changes

plugins/catalog-graphql/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.
