+## 0.12.3
+
+### Deprecated APIs
+
+* The `isUserInput`, `userInputArgument`, and `userInputReturned` predicates from `SecurityOptions` have been deprecated. Use `FlowSource` instead.
+
+### New Features
+
+* `UserDefineLiteral` and `DeductionGuide` classes have been added, representing C++11 user defined literals and C++17 deduction guides.
+
+### Minor Analysis Improvements
+
+* Changed the output of `Node.toString` to better reflect how many indirections a given dataflow node has.
+* Added a new predicate `Node.asDefinition` on `DataFlow::Node`s for selecting the dataflow node corresponding to a particular definition.
+* The deprecated `DefaultTaintTracking` library has been removed.
+* The `Guards` library has been replaced with the API-compatible `IRGuards` implementation, which has better precision in some cases.
+
+### Bug Fixes
+
+* Under certain circumstances a function declaration that is not also a definition could be associated with a `Function` that did not have the definition as a `FunctionDeclarationEntry`. This is now fixed when only one definition exists, and a unique `Function` will exist that has both the declaration and the definition as a `FunctionDeclarationEntry`.

+### Deprecated Queries
+
+* The three queries `java/insufficient-key-size`, `java/server-side-template-injection`, and `java/android/implicit-pendingintents` had accidentally general extension points allowing arbitrary string-based flow state. This has been fixed and the old extension points have been deprecated where possible, and otherwise updated.
+
+### New Queries
+
+* Added the `java/insecure-randomness` query to detect uses of weakly random values which an attacker may be able to predict. Also added the `crypto-parameter` sink kind for sinks which represent the parameters and keys of cryptographic operations. 
+
+### Minor Analysis Improvements
+
+* Modified the `java/potentially-weak-cryptographic-algorithm` query to include the use of weak cryptographic algorithms from configuration values specified in properties files.

+## 0.11.6
+
+### Major Analysis Improvements
+
+* Added support for global data-flow through captured variables.
+
+### Minor Analysis Improvements
+
+* Captured subclass relationships ahead-of-time for most popular PyPI packages so we are able to resolve subclass relationships even without having the packages installed. For example we have captured that `flask_restful.Resource` is a subclass of `flask.views.MethodView`, so our Flask modeling will still consider a function named `post` on a `class Foo(flask_restful.Resource):` as a HTTP request handler.
+* Python now makes use of the shared type tracking library, exposed as `semmle.python.dataflow.new.TypeTracking`. The existing type tracking library, `semmle.python.dataflow.new.TypeTracker`, has consequently been deprecated.
+
+### Bug Fixes
+
+- We would previously confuse all captured variables into a single scope entry node. Now they each get their own node so they can be tracked properly.
+- The dataflow graph no longer contains SSA variables. Instead, flow is directed via the corresponding controlflow nodes. This should make the graph and the flow simpler to understand. Minor improvements in flow computation has been observed, but in general negligible changes to alerts are expected.
