Fixes Dependabot alert #134 (arbitrary code execution in protobufjs). protobufjs is pulled in transitively via @replit/protocol and versions <7.5.5 allow attackers who can control protobuf definitions to execute arbitrary JS during object decoding. The @replit/protocol package declares protobufjs "^7.2.5" so no downstream version constraints change; only the lockfile is updated.

Why
Fixes Dependabot alert #134 — arbitrary code execution in
protobufjs < 7.5.5(GHSA advisory — attackers who can control protobuf definitions can inject arbitrary JS in thetypefield that executes duringdecode).Originating Slack thread: https://replit.slack.com/archives/D0AH702HZHQ/p1776388262869839
protobufjsis pulled in transitively via@replit/protocol@0.3.16 → protobufjs@^7.2.4, which was resolving to7.2.6in the lockfile.What changed
yarn.lock: bumpedprotobufjsfrom7.2.6→7.5.5. No changes topackage.json— the existing^7.2.4constraint in@replit/protocolalready permits this version, we just re-resolved the lockfile entry. 3 lines changed.Test plan
yarn build(tsc) — passes.yarn lint— passes.yarn testtargeted (sortByPriority) — passes. (Fullyarn testhangs on pre-existing open handles unrelated to this change; CI will exercise the full suite.)Revertibility
Safe to revert. Lockfile-only change; reverting restores the previous
