Security Fix(es):

  • Developer environment: Unicode’s bidirectional (BiDi) override characters can cause trojan source attacks (CVE-2021-42574)

The following changes were introduced in clang in order to facilitate detection of BiDi Unicode characters:

clang-tidy now finds identifiers that contain Unicode characters with right-to-left direction, which can be confusing as they may change the understanding of a whole statement.
