Synapse 1.52.0 (2022-02-08) =========================== No significant changes since 1.52.0rc1. During the making of this release, the developers of Twisted have released [Twisted 22.1.0](https://github.com/twisted/twisted/releases/tag/twisted-22.1.0), which fixes [a security issue](https://github.com/twisted/twisted/security/advisories/GHSA-92x2-jw7w-xvvx) within Twisted. We do not believe Synapse to be vulnerable to any security problem caused by this issue, though we advise server administrators to update their local version of Twisted if they can.
