Synapse 1.61.1 (2022-06-28) =========================== This patch release fixes a security issue regarding URL previews, affecting all prior versions of Synapse. Server administrators are encouraged to update Synapse as soon as possible. We are not aware of these vulnerabilities being exploited in the wild. Server administrators who are unable to update Synapse may use the workarounds described in the linked GitHub Security Advisory below. ## Security advisory The following issue is fixed in 1.61.1. * [GHSA-22p3-qrh9-cx32](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/security/advisories/GHSA-22p3-qrh9-cx32) / [CVE-2022-31052](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2022-31052) Synapse instances with the [`url_preview_enabled`](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.61/usage/configuration/config_documentation.html#media-store) homeserver config option set to `true` are affected. URL previews of some web pages can lead to unbounded recursion, causing the request to either fail, or in some cases crash the running Synapse process. Requesting URL previews requires authentication. Nevertheless, it is possible to exploit this maliciously, either by malicious users on the homeserver, or by remote users sending URLs that a local user's client may automatically request a URL preview for. Homeservers with the `url_preview_enabled` configuration option set to `false` (the default) are unaffected. Instances with the `enable_media_repo` configuration option set to `false` are also unaffected, as this also disables URL preview functionality. Fixed by fa1308061802ac7b7d20e954ba7372c5ac292333. Synapse 1.61.0 (2022-06-14) =========================== This release removes support for the non-standard feature known both as 'groups' and as 'communities', which have been superseded by *Spaces*.

([\#12925](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12925)) Synapse 1.60.0 (2022-05-31) =========================== This release of Synapse adds a unique index to the `state_group_edges` table, in order to prevent accidentally introducing duplicate information (for example, because a database backup was restored multiple times). If your Synapse database already has duplicate rows in this table, this could fail with an error and require manual remediation. Additionally, the signature of the `check_event_for_spam` module callback has changed. The previous signature has been deprecated and remains working for now. Module authors should update their modules to use the new signature where possible. See [the upgrade notes](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/upgrade.md#upgrading-to-v1600) for more details. Bugfixes -------- - Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.60.0rc1 that would break some imports from `synapse.module_api`.

([\#12718](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12718)) - Add a `drop_federated_event` callback to `SpamChecker` to disregard inbound federated events before they take up much processing power, in an emergency.

([\#12529](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12529)) Synapse 1.57.1 (2022-04-20) =========================== This is a patch release that only affects the Docker image. It is only of interest to administrators using [the LDAP module][LDAPModule] to authenticate their users. If you have already upgraded to Synapse 1.57.0 without problem, then you have no need to upgrade to this patch release. [LDAPModule]: https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-synapse-ldap3 Updates to the Docker image --------------------------- - Include version 0.2.0 of the Synapse LDAP Auth Provider module in the Docker image. This matches the version that was present in the Docker image for Synapse v1.56.0. ([\#12512](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12512)) Synapse 1.57.0 (2022-04-19) =========================== This version includes a [change](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/12209) to the way transaction IDs are managed for application services. If your deployment uses a dedicated worker for application service traffic, **it must be stopped** when the database is upgraded (which normally happens when the main process is upgraded), to ensure the change is made safely without any risk of reusing transaction IDs. See the [upgrade notes](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/v1.57.0rc1/docs/upgrade.md#upgrading-to-v1570) for more details. No significant changes since 1.57.0rc1. Synapse 1.57.0rc1 (2022-04-12) ============================== Features -------- - Send device list changes to application services as specified by [MSC3202](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3202), using unstable prefixes. The `msc3202_transaction_extensions` experimental homeserver config option must be enabled and `org.matrix.msc3202: true` must be present in the application service registration file for device list changes to be sent. The "left" field is currently always empty. ([\#11881](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11881)) - Optimise fetching large quantities of missing room state over federation.

([\#12444](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12444)) Synapse 1.56.0 (2022-04-05) =========================== Synapse will now refuse to start up if open registration is enabled, in order to help mitigate abuse across the federation. If you would like to provide registration to anyone, consider adding [email](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/8a519f8abc6de772167c2cca101d22ee2052fafc/docs/sample_config.yaml#L1285), [recaptcha](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.56/CAPTCHA_SETUP.html) or [token-based](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.56/usage/administration/admin_api/registration_tokens.html) verification in order to prevent automated registration from bad actors. This check can be disabled by setting the `enable_registration_without_verification` option in your homeserver configuration file to `true`. More details are available in the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.56/upgrade.html#open-registration-without-verification-is-now-disabled-by-default). Synapse will additionally now refuse to start when using PostgreSQL with a non-`C` values for `COLLATE` and `CTYPE`, unless the config flag `allow_unsafe_locale`, found in the database section of the configuration file, is set to `true`. See the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.56/upgrade#change-in-behaviour-for-postgresql-databases-with-unsafe-locale) for details.

Again, this is to fix an incompatibility with version 3.1.0 of the [Jinja](https://pypi.org/project/Jinja2/) library, and again, deployments of Synapse using the `matrixdotorg/synapse` Docker image or Debian packages from packages.matrix.org are not affected.

Deployments of Synapse using the `matrixdotorg/synapse` Docker image or Debian packages from packages.matrix.org are not affected. Internal Changes ---------------- - Remove uses of the long-deprecated `jinja2.Markup` which would prevent Synapse from starting with Jinja 3.1.0 or above installed. ([\#12289](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12289)) Synapse 1.55.0 (2022-03-22) =========================== This release removes a workaround introduced in Synapse 1.50.0 for Mjolnir compatibility. **This breaks compatibility with Mjolnir 1.3.1 and earlier.
