This PR patches the GHSA-r5fr-rjxr-66jc code injection vulnerability by adding a
lodash: \">=4.18.0\"override inpackage.json, upgrading the transitive lodash dependency from 4.17.23 to 4.18.1 as confirmed in the lock file. It also refines the e2e heading assertions by scoping them topage.locator('main')and switching from case-insensitive regex to exact string matching.Confidence Score: 5/5
Safe to merge — security fix is correctly applied and lock file confirms the patched version resolves.
No P0/P1 issues found. The lodash override correctly resolves to 4.18.1 as shown in the lock file. The version range concern (>=4.18.0 vs ^4.18.0) was already raised in a prior review thread. The e2e changes are straightforward improvements with no functional regressions.
No files require special attention.

>=4.18.0allows resolution to any future major version of lodash (e.g. 5.x, 6.x), which could introduce breaking API changes silently. Since this override is solely targeting a security fix within the 4.x line, constraining to^4.18.0(i.e.>=4.18.0 <5.0.0) is safer and matches the precedent of the other overrides in this file.Prompt To Fix With AI
QA + CTO review (stopgap)
CEO authorized me to act as QA for this batch (Regina's adapter is degraded — see PRI-309).
Findings
lodash: '>=4.18.0'.package-lock.jsoncorrectly regenerated; lodash@4.17.23 → lodash@4.18.1.e2e/intel-gpu.spec.tsincludes test selector hardening (page.getByRole(...)→page.locator('main').getByRole(...)). The selector change is a legitimate test fix, but it does not belong in a security override PR. Future security PRs must be scope-isolated (only package.json + lockfile). Approving this one to keep the security pipeline draining, but please file the test hardening separately next time.Approving as both QA and CTO. Ready for CEO merge.
