v1.68.0rc1
Synapse 1.68.0rc1 (2022-09-20) ============================== Please note that Synapse will now refuse to start if configured to use a version of SQLite earlier than 3.27. In addition, please note that installing Synapse from a source checkout now requires a recent Rust compiler. Those using packages will not be affected. On most platforms, installing with `pip install matrix-synapse` will not be affected. See the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.68/upgrade.html#upgrading-to-v1670). Features -------- - Keep track of when we fail to process a pulled event over federation so we can intelligently back off in the future.

([\#13480](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13480)) - Fix a mistake in the config manual: the `event_cache_size` _is_ scaled by `caches.global_factor`.

v1.67.0
Synapse 1.67.0 (2022-09-13) =========================== This release removes using the deprecated direct TCP replication configuration for workers. Server admins should use Redis instead. See the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.67/upgrade.html#upgrading-to-v1670). The minimum version of `poetry` supported for managing source checkouts is now 1.2.0. **Notice:** from the next major release (1.68.0) installing Synapse from a source checkout will require a recent Rust compiler. Those using packages or `pip install matrix-synapse` will not be affected. See the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.67/upgrade.html#upgrading-to-v1670). **Notice:** from the next major release (1.68.0), running Synapse with a SQLite database will require SQLite version 3.27.0 or higher. (The [current minimum version is SQLite 3.22.0](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v1.67/synapse/storage/engines/sqlite.py#L69-L78).)

v1.66.0
Synapse 1.66.0 (2022-08-31) =========================== No significant changes since 1.66.0rc2. This release removes the ability for homeservers to delegate email ownership verification and password reset confirmation to identity servers. This removal was originally planned for Synapse 1.64, but was later deferred until now. See the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.66/upgrade.html#upgrading-to-v1660) for more details. Deployments with multiple workers should note that the direct TCP replication configuration was deprecated in Synapse v1.18.0 and will be removed in Synapse v1.67.0. In particular, the TCP `replication` [listener](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.66/usage/configuration/config_documentation.html#listeners) type (not to be confused with the `replication` resource on the `http` listener type) and the `worker_replication_port` config option will be removed . To migrate to Redis, add the [`redis` config](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.66/workers.html#shared-configuration), then remove the TCP `replication` listener from config of the master and `worker_replication_port` from worker config. Note that a HTTP listener with a `replication` resource is still required. See the [worker documentation](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.66/workers.html) for more details. Synapse 1.66.0rc2 (2022-08-30) ============================== Bugfixes -------- - Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.66.0rc1 where the new rate limit metrics were misreported (`synapse_rate_limit_sleep_affected_hosts`, `synapse_rate_limit_reject_affected_hosts`).

v1.64.0rc2
Synapse 1.64.0rc2 (2022-07-29) ============================== This RC reintroduces support for `account_threepid_delegates.email`, which was removed in 1.64.0rc1. It remains deprecated and will be removed altogether in a future release. ([\#13406](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13406))

v1.64.0rc1
Synapse 1.64.0rc1 (2022-07-26) ============================== As of this release, Synapse no longer allows the tasks of verifying email address ownership, and password reset confirmation, to be delegated to an identity server. For more information, see the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.64/upgrade.html#upgrading-to-v1640). We have also stopped building `.deb` packages for Ubuntu 21.10 as it is no longer an active version of Ubuntu. Features -------- - Improve error messages when media thumbnails cannot be served.

v1.61.1
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).
