Summary
LLVM Toolset provides the LLVM compiler infrastructure framework, the Clang compiler for the C and C++ languages, the LLDB debugger, and related tools for code analysis.
Security Fix(es):
* Developer environment: Unicode's bidirectional (BiDi) override characters can cause trojan source attacks (CVE-2021-42574)
The following changes were introduced in clang in order to facilitate detection of BiDi Unicode characters:
clang-tidy now finds identifiers that contain Unicode characters with right-to-left direction, which can be confusing as they may change the understanding of a whole statement.
