v1.27.0rc1
Synapse 1.27.0rc1 (2021-02-02) ============================== Note that this release includes a change in Synapse to use Redis as a cache ─ as well as a pub/sub mechanism ─ if Redis support is enabled. No action is needed by server administrators, and we do not expect resource usage of the Redis instance to change dramatically. This release also changes the callback URI for OpenID Connect (OIDC) identity providers. If your server is configured to use single sign-on via an OIDC/OAuth2 IdP, you may need to make configuration changes. Please review [UPGRADE.rst](UPGRADE.rst) for more details on these changes. This release also changes escaping of variables in the HTML templates for SSO or email notifications. If you have customised these templates, please review [UPGRADE.rst](UPGRADE.rst) for more details on these changes.

v1.25.0
Synapse 1.25.0 (2021-01-13) =========================== Ending Support for Python 3.5 and Postgres 9.5 ---------------------------------------------- With this release, the Synapse team is announcing a formal deprecation policy for our platform dependencies, like Python and PostgreSQL: All future releases of Synapse will follow the upstream end-of-life schedules. Which means: * This is the last release which guarantees support for Python 3.5. * We will end support for PostgreSQL 9.5 early next month. * We will end support for Python 3.6 and PostgreSQL 9.6 near the end of the year. Crucially, this means __we will not produce .deb packages for Debian 9 (Stretch) or Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial)__ beyond the transition period described below. The website https://endoflife.date/ has convenient summaries of the support schedules for projects like [Python](https://endoflife.date/python) and [PostgreSQL](https://endoflife.date/postgresql). If you are unable to upgrade your environment to a supported version of Python or Postgres, we encourage you to consider using the [Synapse Docker images](./INSTALL.md#docker-images-and-ansible-playbooks) instead. We will make a good faith attempt to avoid breaking compatibility in all releases through the end of March 2021. However, critical security vulnerabilities in dependencies or other unanticipated circumstances may arise which necessitate breaking compatibility earlier. We intend to continue producing .deb packages for Debian 9 (Stretch) and Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial) through the transition period. Removal warning --------------- The old [Purge Room API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/master/docs/admin_api/purge_room.md) and [Shutdown Room API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/master/docs/admin_api/shutdown_room.md) are deprecated and will be removed in a future release. They will be replaced by the [Delete Room API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/master/docs/admin_api/rooms.md#delete-room-api). `POST /_synapse/admin/v1/rooms/<room_id>/delete` replaces `POST /_synapse/admin/v1/purge_room` and `POST /_synapse/admin/v1/shutdown_room/<room_id>`. Bugfixes -------- - Fix HTTP proxy support when using a proxy that is on a blacklisted IP. Introduced in v1.25.0rc1. Contributed by @Bubu.

v1.23.1
Synapse 1.23.1 (2020-12-09) =========================== Due to the two security issues highlighted below, server administrators are encouraged to update Synapse. We are not aware of these vulnerabilities being exploited in the wild. Security advisory ----------------- The following issues are fixed in v1.23.1 and v1.24.0. - There is a denial of service attack ([CVE-2020-26257](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2020-26257)) against the federation APIs in which future events will not be correctly sent to other servers over federation. This affects all servers that participate in open federation. (Fixed in [#8776](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/8776)). - Synapse may be affected by OpenSSL [CVE-2020-1971](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2020-1971). Synapse administrators should ensure that they have the latest versions of the cryptography Python package installed. To upgrade Synapse along with the cryptography package: * Administrators using the [`matrix.org` Docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/matrixdotorg/synapse/) or the [Debian/Ubuntu packages from `matrix.org`](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/master/INSTALL.md#matrixorg-packages) should ensure that they have version 1.24.0 or 1.23.1 installed: these images include the updated packages. * Administrators who have [installed Synapse from source](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/master/INSTALL.md#installing-from-source) should upgrade the cryptography package within their virtualenv by running: ```sh <path_to_virtualenv>/bin/pip install 'cryptography>=3.3' ``` * Administrators who have installed Synapse from distribution packages should consult the information from their distributions. Bugfixes -------- - Fix a bug in some federation APIs which could lead to unexpected behaviour if different parameters were set in the URI and the request body. ([\#8776](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8776)) Internal Changes ---------------- - Add a maximum version for pysaml2 on Python 3.5.
