Review Summary

This PR updates axios from 1.15.2 to 1.16.1 in the pnpm overrides to address multiple security vulnerabilities (issues #156, #157, #158, #159).

Changes Review

src/frontend/package.json (line 149)

• Updated axios override: 1.15.2 → 1.16.1

src/frontend/pnpm-lock.yaml

• Lock file properly updated with new axios version
• New transitive dependencies added: agent-base@6.0.2, https-proxy-agent@5.0.1 (expected additions for axios 1.16.x)

Assessment

Aspect	Status
Security fix	✅ Addresses referenced vulnerabilities
Lockfile consistency	✅ pnpm-lock.yaml properly regenerated
Version pinning	✅ Uses exact version (not range) for predictability
Approach	✅ Using pnpm overrides ensures all transitive axios deps are patched

Notes

• The use of pnpm.overrides is the correct approach to ensure all instances of axios across the dependency tree are updated to the secure version, not just direct dependencies.
• Axios 1.16.1 includes security patches for SSRF and request smuggling vulnerabilities that affected earlier versions.
• The new transitive dependencies (agent-base, https-proxy-agent) are expected changes in axios 1.16.x.

Verdict: This is a clean, focused security update. No issues found.
