Summary of Changes

Hello @hashim21223445, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, aims to enhance the security posture of the project by resolving three identified vulnerabilities within its Python pip dependencies. The changes primarily involve updating the torch library to a more secure version and introducing a specific version of the wheel package to mitigate a known security risk, ensuring the project's dependencies are more secure.

Highlights

• Dependency Updates: The torch dependency has been updated from version >=1.11.0 to >=2.10.0 to address identified vulnerabilities.
• New Dependency Introduction: The wheel package has been added as a new dependency, pinned to version >=0.46.2, specifically to mitigate a vulnerability identified by Snyk, even though it's not a direct project requirement.

Code Review

This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, aims to fix security vulnerabilities by upgrading torch and wheel. However, the suggested versions for both packages (torch>=2.10.0 and wheel>=0.46.2) appear to be invalid as they do not exist on the public PyPI repository. This will cause the dependency installation to fail. My review includes critical comments on requirements.txt to highlight these issues. Please replace them with valid package versions that resolve the vulnerabilities. I have also included a recommendation to pin dependencies to exact versions for improved build reproducibility.

[gemini-code-assist]

The specified version torch>=2.10.0 appears to correspond to a non-existent package version on PyPI. This will cause dependency installation to fail. Please use a valid, existing version of torch that fixes the vulnerability. Once you've identified the correct version, it's also recommended to pin it using == instead of >= to ensure reproducible builds.

[gemini-code-assist]

Similar to the torch dependency, the specified version wheel>=0.46.2 appears to correspond to a non-existent package version on PyPI. This will cause dependency installation to fail. Please use a valid, existing version of wheel that fixes the vulnerability. Once you've identified the correct version, it's also recommended to pin it using == instead of >= to ensure reproducible builds.
