Summary of Changes

Hello @nejidevelops, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, intends to upgrade the react-scripts dependency to version 2.1.8 to resolve identified security vulnerabilities. However, the patch shows the current version being changed from 5.0.1 to 2.1.8, which is a version downgrade relative to the existing package.json entry, despite the PR's stated goal of an upgrade from an older version.

Highlights

• Security Vulnerability Resolution: This change aims to address two security vulnerabilities: a high-severity Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) (SNYK-JS-SSRI-1246392) and a critical-severity Incomplete List of Disallowed Inputs (SNYK-JS-BABELTRAVERSE-5962462).

Code Review

This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, proposes to upgrade react-scripts to fix security vulnerabilities. However, the change actually downgrades the package from version 5.0.1 to 2.1.8. This is a critical issue as the target version is very old (from 2019) and will likely break the application and introduce more vulnerabilities than it resolves. The change should be rejected.

[gemini-code-assist]

This change downgrades react-scripts from 5.0.1 to 2.1.8, which is a major step backward. The PR title and Snyk's analysis appear to be based on an incorrect starting version. Downgrading to a version from 2019 will likely cause breaking changes and introduce more security vulnerabilities than it fixes. The package version should be reverted to 5.0.1, which is the latest stable version.
