Code Review

This pull request, generated by Snyk, upgrades react-scripts from 4.0.1 to 4.0.3 to address several security vulnerabilities. This is a positive and necessary change. My review includes two main points for further improvement. First, I've raised a high-severity concern about the age of react-scripts v4 and strongly recommend planning an upgrade to the latest major version (v5) for better security and maintainability. Second, I've suggested using a caret range for the react-scripts version in package.json to automatically receive future security patches within the v4 branch.

[gemini-code-assist]

While upgrading react-scripts to 4.0.3 is a good step to patch the listed vulnerabilities, this version is still very old (released in 2021), and the entire [email protected] major version is outdated. The latest stable version is 5.x.x.

Staying on an old major version poses a significant maintenance and security risk, as you might be missing out on:

• Critical security patches for vulnerabilities discovered after this version was released.
• Major dependency upgrades like Webpack 5, Jest 27, and ESLint 8, which bring performance improvements and bug fixes.
• Support for modern JavaScript features.

I strongly recommend creating a follow-up task to upgrade to the latest major version of react-scripts. This is a breaking change and will require careful testing, but it is crucial for the long-term health of the application. You can find more information in the Create React App documentation on updating to new releases.

[gemini-code-assist]

You are pinning the exact version of react-scripts. While this ensures deterministic builds, it also prevents you from automatically receiving important patch updates, like this security fix. Consider using a caret (^) to allow for non-breaking patch and minor updates. This would help you get future security patches within the v4.x range automatically and aligns with how other dependencies like react and react-dom are configured in this file.
