The `fieldFlow` predicate contained a fragile join that has become
ordered wrong recently, either as result of an unrelated change in the
data-flow library or as part of the stats change for the last dbscheme
change.
The minimal fix is to use `getEnclosingCallable` instead of
`getFunction` since the former uses `unique` to ensure good join
ordering in its callers. A longer-term fix should be applied to the AST
base libraries, but this will be invasive and require independent
testing.

CodeQL
This open source repository contains the standard CodeQL libraries and queries that power LGTM and the other CodeQL products that GitHub makes available to its customers worldwide.
How do I learn CodeQL and run queries?
There is extensive documentation on getting started with writing CodeQL. You can use the interactive query console on LGTM.com or the CodeQL for Visual Studio Code extension to try out your queries on any open source project that's currently being analyzed.
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.
