Found a cookbook that had an incorrect format for a dependency made its way into chef, causing the entire service to fail.

It appears the faulty cookbook upload for a single cookbook is taking down an entire chef server

berks -v
7.0.10

knife -v
Chef: 14.15.6

To Reproduce

bundle exec berks upload

Expected behavior

resolution of cookbooks.
A single cookbook to take down an entire chef server seems very dangerous, at the least to improve logging when such events occur so it can be tracked down and resolved.

Actual behavior

08:24:15 [INFO] [2022-04-19T08:24:15-05:00] ERROR: Server returned error 500 for
https://chef.dev.com/organizations/main/environments/cloud_infra_dev_chef16/cookbook_versions, retrying 1/5 in 3s

Do we have an example of the invalid metadata?
