Code Review

This pull request from Snyk addresses two security vulnerabilities by upgrading axios. However, it also includes major version upgrades for jest and node-sass which are very likely to cause breakages.

• axios: The upgrade to version 1.13.5 is suspicious, as this version does not appear to be published on npm. Please double-check this version number.
• jest: The upgrade from v24 to v26 is not accompanied by upgrades to related packages like babel-jest and jest-resolve, which will likely break your tests.
• node-sass: The upgrade from v4 to v9 is incompatible with your current version of sass-loader and will break your build process.

I've left specific comments on the problematic lines in package.json. I recommend addressing these compatibility issues before merging. It might be best to separate the non-essential upgrades (jest, node-sass) from the security fix for axios if they are not also for security reasons.

[gemini-code-assist]

The jest package has been upgraded by two major versions (from 24.x to 26.x). This is a significant change that will likely break your test suite because other jest-related dependencies have not been upgraded.

You will likely need to upgrade the following packages to be compatible with Jest 26:

• babel-jest: currently ^24.8.0
• jest-resolve: currently 24.7.1

Additionally, jest-environment-jsdom-fourteen is likely incompatible with Jest 26. You should consider migrating to the default jest-environment-jsdom that ships with Jest.

Since this upgrade doesn't seem to be related to the vulnerabilities mentioned in the PR description, you might consider reverting this change if it's not strictly necessary, to avoid breaking the tests.

[gemini-code-assist]

Upgrading node-sass from version 4 to 9 is a very large jump and will break your build.
Your project is using sass-loader version 7.1.0, which is not compatible with node-sass v9. You are also using webpack v4, which may have compatibility issues with newer sass-loader versions.

Furthermore, node-sass is deprecated and the community has moved to dart-sass (the sass package on npm).

I recommend one of the following:

1. If this upgrade is not for a security fix, revert it.
2. If you must upgrade, consider a full migration:
   • Replace node-sass with sass.
   • Upgrade sass-loader to a version compatible with webpack 4 and sass (e.g., sass-loader v10).

This change as-is will prevent the application from building.

[gemini-code-assist]

The axios package has been upgraded across major versions (from 0.x to 1.x) to fix a security vulnerability. While this is necessary, the target version 1.13.5 seems incorrect as the latest published version of axios on npm is 1.7.2. Please verify the target version. It might be a typo for another version like 1.3.5 or 1.7.2. This major version upgrade may also introduce breaking changes, so thorough testing of API calls is recommended.
