Code Review
This pull request effectively addresses the security vulnerability CVE-2025-4641 by updating io.github.bonigarcia:webdrivermanager from version 5.6.3 to 6.1.0. The change is straightforward and targets the correct dependency. The inclusion of release notes in the PR description is very helpful for understanding the scope of changes in the updated version.
Summary of Findings
- Security Vulnerability Addressed: The primary goal of updating
io.github.bonigarcia:webdrivermanagerto6.1.0is to fix CVE-2025-4641, which this change successfully achieves. - Test Verification for Major Version Update: Due to the major version increment (5.x to 6.x) and documented breaking changes in the v6.0.0 release of
webdrivermanager, it's recommended to thoroughly verify that existing integration tests (SnippetsIT.java) continue to pass as expected.
Merge Readiness
This pull request is a valuable security update. The change itself is correct. Before merging, it would be prudent to confirm that the integration tests relying on webdrivermanager in SnippetsIT.java execute successfully with the new version 6.1.0, considering the major version jump. I am not authorized to approve pull requests, so please ensure appropriate review and approval from team members. Once test compatibility is confirmed, this PR should be good to merge.

This update to version 6.1.0 is crucial for addressing the listed security vulnerability (CVE-2025-4641).
Given that this is a major version bump (from 5.x to 6.x), and the release notes for v6.0.0 (included in this major update) list several removed features and significant changes, could you please ensure that the UI tests in SnippetsIT.java (which utilize WebDriverManager for ChromeDriver setup) are thoroughly verified?
While the Renovate bot's compatibility badges are a good indicator, confirming that all tests pass as expected with this new version will help ensure stability and catch any subtle behavioral changes that might not be covered by automated compatibility checks. The key aspects to look out for would be any reliance on features that might have been altered or removed as per the v6.0.0 release notes.
