Code Review

This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, proposes a downgrade of the react-scripts package from version 5.0.1 to 2.1.8. This is a critical issue as it represents a major version downgrade that is incompatible with the project's React version (v18) and will likely break the application. The PR description is misleading as it describes an upgrade from a much older version. I have added a comment to reject this change and keep the current version.

[gemini-code-assist]

This change introduces a significant downgrade of react-scripts from version 5.0.1 to 2.1.8. This is a major version downgrade and is highly likely to break the application, as react-scripts@2.x is not compatible with React 18, which is used in this project ("react": "^18.1.0").

The PR title and description state this is an upgrade from 2.1.3 to 2.1.8, which is inconsistent with the actual change in the code. It seems the Snyk scan was based on an outdated dependency tree.

Downgrading to such an old version will likely reintroduce many security vulnerabilities and bugs that have been fixed in newer versions. It is strongly recommended to reject this change. The dependency should remain at 5.0.1 or be upgraded to a newer version if available.

Suggested change
