364-e.11 changes (1 Aug 2022)#

Important: In this release, we’ve patched a bug that causes the potential for incorrect results from certain queries that have had joins reordered in specific ways, in combination with certain data. A small percentage of queries are affected, but due to the complexity of the conditions that trigger the bug, it is not possible to predict which queries will be affected and thus we recommend that _all_ customers upgrade all clusters.

Fix incorrect results for certain join queries containing filters involving explicit or implicit casts.
Add Varbinary handling to Kafka Protobuf deserializer.
Fix incorrect query results when reading a Delta Lake table with a cached representation of its active data files that are outdated.
