- remove `tupleStoreStep` and `dictStoreStep` from `containerStep`
These are imprecise compared to the content being precise.
- add implicit reads to recover taint at sinks
- add implicit read steps for decoders
to supplement the `AdditionalTaintStep`
that now only covers when the full container is tainted.
Fixes the test failures that arose from making `ExtractedArgumentNode`
local.
For the consistency checks, we now explicitly exclude the
`ExtractedArgumentNode`s (now much more plentiful due to the
overapproximation) that don't have a corresponding `getCallArg` tuple.
For various queries/tests using `instanceof ArgumentNode`, we instead us
`isArgumentNode`, which explicitly filters out the ones for which
`isArgumentOf` doesn't hold (which, again, is the case for most of the
nodes in the overapproximation).
When looking things over a bit more, we could actually exclude the steps
that would never be used instead. A much more involved solution, but
more performance oriented and clear in terms of what is supported (at
least until we start supporting type-tracking with more than depth 1
access-path, if that ever happens)
This would have found the problem in
https://github.com/github/codeql/pull/15755.
As highlighted in the comment in the code, it's not a perfect solution
since we don't have an automatic way to ensure we don't introduce a new
PhaseDependentFlow use with a new step relation and forget to add it to
this consistency check... but I think this consistency check still adds
value!
These are the labmda self references. This is similar to
how `BlockParameterArgumentNode` is excluded for Ruby.
It is important that we restrict `call` in this logic.
Otherwise, we get a cartesian product and the consistency
check runs for a very long time...
