• Fixed a bug in the DataFlow::BarrierGuard<...>::getABarrierNode predicate which caused the predicate to return DataFlow::Nodes with incorrect indirections. If you use getABarrierNode to implement barriers in a dataflow/taint-tracking query it may result in more query results. You can use DataFlow::BarrierGuard<...>::getAnIndirectBarrierNode to remove those query results.
