v1.16.0
Synapse 1.16.0 (2020-07-08) =========================== No significant changes since 1.16.0rc2. Note that this release deprecates the `m.login.jwt` login method, renaming it to `org.matrix.login.jwt`, as `m.login.jwt` is not part of the Matrix spec. Otherwise the behaviour is identical. Synapse will accept both names for now, but this may change in a future release.

v1.18.0
Synapse 1.18.0 (2020-07-30) =========================== Deprecation Warnings -------------------- From 10th August 2020, we will no longer publish Docker images with the `-py3` tag suffix. The images tagged with the `-py3` suffix have been identical to the non-suffixed tags since release 0.99.0, and the suffix is obsolete. On 10th August, we will remove the `latest-py3` tag. Existing per-release tags (such as `v1.18.0-py3`) will not be removed, but no new `-py3` tags will be added. Scripts relying on the `-py3` suffix will need to be updated. When setting up worker processes, we now recommend the use of a Redis server for replication. The old direct TCP connection method is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. See [docs/workers.md](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v1.18.0/docs/workers.md) for more details.

v1.2.1
Synapse 1.2.1 (2019-07-26) ========================== Security update --------------- This release includes *four* security fixes: - Prevent an attack where a federated server could send redactions for arbitrary events in v1 and v2 rooms. ([\#5767](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5767)) - Prevent a denial-of-service attack where cycles of redaction events would make Synapse spin infinitely.
