+## 5.4.1
+
+### Minor Analysis Improvements
+
+* The guards libraries (`semmle.code.cpp.controlflow.Guards` and `semmle.code.cpp.controlflow.IRGuards`) have been improved to recognize more guards.
+* Improved dataflow through global variables in the new dataflow library (`semmle.code.cpp.dataflow.new.DataFlow` and `semmle.code.cpp.dataflow.new.TaintTracking`). Queries based on these libraries will produce more results on codebases with many global variables.
+* The global value numbering library (`semmle.code.cpp.valuenumbering.GlobalValueNumbering` and `semmle.code.cpp.ir.ValueNumbering`) has been improved so more expressions are assigned the same value number.
