Flips the Python dataflow trunk from the legacy CFG (semmle/python/Flow.qll) and legacy ESSA SSA (semmle/python/essa/*) to the new shared CFG facade (semmle.python.controlflow.internal.Cfg) and the new SSA adapter (semmle.python.dataflow.new.internal.SsaImpl), both introduced additively in the preceding PRs in this stack. This is the trunk-flip equivalent of the original draft PR #21894 (kept around as documentation), rebased on top of the four preparatory PRs: P1: Remove AstNode.getAFlowNode() and rewrite callers (#21919). P2: Qualify Flow.qll's AST references with Py:: prefix (#21920). P3: Add new shared-CFG-backed control flow graph (#21921). P4: Add new shared-SSA-backed SSA adapter (#21923). The Python dataflow library (semmle/python/dataflow/new/) now imports the new CFG facade and SSA adapter. All CFG-typed predicates (ControlFlowNode, CallNode, BasicBlock, NameNode, AttrNode, ...) are qualified with the Cfg:: prefix; SSA references switch from EssaVariable/EssaDefinition to SsaImpl::Definition/SourceVariable. GuardNode is redesigned to use the new CFG's outcome-node model (isAfterTrue / isAfterFalse) instead of the legacy ConditionBlock + flipped indirection. Only BarrierGuard<...> is preserved as public API. Framework files (Bottle, FastApi, Django, Tornado, Pyramid, Stdlib, ...) are updated to take CFG nodes from the new facade. A handful of dataflow consistency tweaks for the new CFG: - Augmented-assignment targets are treated as both load and store. - 'from X import *' produces uncertain SSA writes for unknown names. - CFG nodes are canonicalised so dataflow does not see equivalent pre/post-order pairs as distinct nodes. Two AST tweaks for the new CFG: - AstNodeImpl: omit PEP 695 type-parameter names from FunctionDefExpr / ClassDefExpr children. - ImportResolution: drop the legacy essa import. Test churn (~175 files): reblessed library- and query-test .expected files reflect slightly different CFG granularity, different toString output, and a handful of true alert deltas in security queries. Verification: all 367 lib + src + consistency-queries compile clean. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
CodeQL
This open source repository contains the standard CodeQL libraries and queries that power GitHub Advanced Security and the other application security products that GitHub makes available to its customers worldwide.
How do I learn CodeQL and run queries?
There is extensive documentation about the CodeQL language, writing CodeQL using the CodeQL extension for Visual Studio Code and using the CodeQL CLI.
Contributing
We welcome contributions to our standard library and standard checks. Do you have an idea for a new check, or how to improve an existing query? Then please go ahead and open a pull request! Before you do, though, please take the time to read our contributing guidelines. You can also consult our style guides to learn how to format your code for consistency and clarity, how to write query metadata, and how to write query help documentation for your query.
For information on contributing to CodeQL documentation, see the "contributing guide" for docs.

The CodeQL CLI (including the CodeQL engine) is hosted in a different repository and is licensed separately. If you'd like to use the CodeQL CLI to analyze closed-source code, you will need a separate commercial license; please contact us for further help.
Visual Studio Code integration
If you use Visual Studio Code to work in this repository, there are a few integration features to make development easier.
CodeQL for Visual Studio Code
You can install the CodeQL for Visual Studio Code extension to get syntax highlighting, IntelliSense, and code navigation for the QL language, as well as unit test support for testing CodeQL libraries and queries.
Tasks
The .vscode/tasks.json file defines custom tasks specific to working in this repository. To invoke one of these tasks, select the Terminal | Run Task... menu option, and then select the desired task from the dropdown. You can also invoke the Tasks: Run Task command from the command palette.
