Updated @playwright/test from ^1.52.0 to ^1.56.1, which updates the transitive playwright dependency from 1.52.0 to 1.56.1. This fixes CVE-2025-59288 (GHSA-7mvr-c777-76hp), a high-severity vulnerability where Playwright's browser installer scripts used curl -k (insecure) to download and install browsers, allowing potential Man-in-the-Middle attacks. The vulnerability affected playwright < 1.55.1. Version 1.56.1 removes the -k flag and properly validates SSL certificates.
