Code Review

This pull request from Snyk aims to resolve a security vulnerability by upgrading @openzeppelin/merkle-tree to version 1.0.8. The update in package.json is correct. However, a critical action is required before merging: the pnpm-lock.yaml file has not been updated. You must run pnpm install (or the equivalent command for your workflow) to update the lock file and commit the result. This will ensure that the patched version of the dependency is actually used in the project, thereby fixing the vulnerability.

[gemini-code-assist]

This version bump is correct, but the change is incomplete. As noted in the PR description, pnpm-lock.yaml was not updated. To fix the security vulnerability (SNYK-JS-ELLIPTIC-14908844), you must update the lock file by running pnpm install and committing the changes. Without this step, your project will continue to use the old, vulnerable version of the dependency.
