Fix CVE-2024-4068: upgrade transitive braces to 3.0.3

What was fixed: The transitive dependency braces was resolved at a vulnerable version (3.0.2) in the root yarn.lock. This PR refreshes the lockfile so braces resolves to the patched version 3.0.3. No package.json manifest changes were required or retained.

braces

braces@3.0.2 was pulled in transitively by micromatch@4.0.4 via the selector braces@^3.0.1. Because the existing range already admitted 3.0.3, no manifest edit was needed — running yarn upgrade 'braces@^3.0.1' was sufficient to refresh the lockfile entry to the patched version. yarn upgrade (Yarn Classic) incidentally added braces as a direct dependency in package.json; that accidental entry was removed immediately and a final yarn install confirmed the fix is lockfile-only, with braces remaining a transitive-only dependency under micromatch.

Version changes

Package From To Why updated
braces 3.0.2 3.0.3 Direct CVE fix (lockfile refresh only; transitive via micromatch)
