v1.61.109d89ddc · ·
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. 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](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/commit/fa1308061802ac7b7d20e954ba7372c5ac292333).

v1.60.05984ada6 · ·
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`. ([\#12918](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12918)) Synapse 1.60.0rc2 (2022-05-27) ============================== Features -------- - Add an option allowing users to use their password to reauthenticate for privileged actions even though password login is disabled. ([\#12883](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12883)) Bugfixes -------- - Explicitly close `ijson` coroutines once we are done with them, instead of leaving the garbage collector to close them. ([\#12875](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12875)) Internal Changes ---------------- - Improve URL previews by not including the content of media tags in the generated description. ([\#12887](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12887)) Synapse 1.60.0rc1 (2022-05-24) ============================== Features -------- - Measure the time taken in spam-checking callbacks and expose those measurements as metrics. ([\#12513](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12513)) - Add a `default_power_level_content_override` config option to set default room power levels per room preset. ([\#12618](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12618)) - Add support for [MSC3787: Allowing knocks to restricted rooms](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3787). ([\#12623](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12623)) - Send `USER_IP` commands on a different Redis channel, in order to reduce traffic to workers that do not process these commands.

([\#12701](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12701)) - Update [MSC2716](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/2716) implementation to process marker events from the current state to avoid markers being lost in timeline gaps for federated servers which would cause the imported history to be undiscovered. ([\#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. ([\#12744](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12744)) - Implement [MSC3818: Copy room type on upgrade](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3818).

Deprecate the current callback signature, replace it with a new signature that is both less ambiguous (replacing booleans with explicit allow/block) and more powerful (ability to return explicit error codes).

([\#12713](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12713)) - Fix push to dismiss notifications when read on another client. Contributed by @SpiritCroc @ Beeper.

v1.60.0rc2e409ab8e · ·
Synapse 1.60.0rc2 (2022-05-27) ============================== 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. Features -------- - Add an option allowing users to use their password to reauthenticate for privileged actions even though password login is disabled. ([\#12883](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12883)) Bugfixes -------- - Explicitly close `ijson` coroutines once we are done with them, instead of leaving the garbage collector to close them. ([\#12875](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12875)) Internal Changes ---------------- - Improve URL previews by not including the content of media tags in the generated description.

Synapse 1.59.0 (2022-05-17) =========================== Synapse 1.59 makes several changes that server administrators should be aware of: - Device name lookup over federation is now disabled by default. ([\#12616](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12616)) - The `synapse.app.appservice` and `synapse.app.user_dir` worker application types are now deprecated.
