Synapse 1.24.0 (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://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/setup/installation.html#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://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/setup/installation.html#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.
|
|
|
|
Internal Changes
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
- Add a maximum version for pysaml2 on Python 3.5. ([\#8898](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8898))

Synapse 1.20.1 (2020-09-24)

Synapse 1.20.0 (2020-09-22)

|
|
|
No significant changes since v1.20.0rc5.
|
|

Removal warning
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
Historically, the [Synapse Admin
|
|
API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/master/docs) has been
|
|
accessible under the `/_matrix/client/api/v1/admin`,
|
|
`/_matrix/client/unstable/admin`, `/_matrix/client/r0/admin` and
|
|
`/_synapse/admin` prefixes. In a future release, we will be dropping support
|
|
for accessing Synapse's Admin API using the `/_matrix/client/*` prefixes.
|
|
|
|
From that point, the Admin API will only be accessible under `/_synapse/admin`.
|
|
This makes it easier for homeserver admins to lock down external access to the
|
|
Admin API endpoints.

Removal warning
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
Some older clients used a [disallowed character](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.6.1#post-matrix-client-r0-register-email-requesttoken) (`:`) in the `client_secret` parameter of various endpoints. The incorrect behaviour was allowed for backwards compatibility, but is now being removed from Synapse as most users have updated their client. Further context can be found at [\#6766](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/6766).

|
|
|
Deprecation Warnings
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
### Docker Tags with `-py3` Suffix
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### TCP-based Replication
|
|
|
|
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.

Synapse 1.17.0 (2020-07-13)
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
Synapse 1.17.0 is identical to 1.17.0rc1, with the addition of the fix that was included in 1.16.1.

Synapse 1.16.1 (2020-07-10)
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
In some distributions of Synapse 1.16.0, we incorrectly included a database migration which added a new, unused table. This release removes the redundant table.
|
|
|
|
Bugfixes
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|

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.
|
|
|
|
Synapse 1.16.0rc2 (2020-07-02)
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
Synapse 1.16.0rc2 includes the security fixes released with Synapse 1.15.2.
|
|
Please see [below](#synapse-1152-2020-07-02) for more details.

|
|
|
|
|
|
Synapse 1.15.2 (2020-07-02)
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
* A malicious homeserver could force Synapse to reset the state in a room to a
|
|
small subset of the correct state. This affects all Synapse deployments which
|
|
federate with untrusted servers. ([96e9afe6](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/commit/96e9afe62500310977dc3cbc99a8d16d3d2fa15c))
|
|
* HTML pages served via Synapse were vulnerable to clickjacking attacks. This
|
|
predominantly affects homeservers with single-sign-on enabled, but all server
|
|
administrators are encouraged to upgrade. ([ea26e9a9](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/commit/ea26e9a98b0541fc886a1cb826a38352b7599dbe))

Synapse 1.13.0 (2020-05-19)
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
This release brings some potential changes necessary for certain
|
|
configurations of Synapse:
|
|
|
|
* If your Synapse is configured to use SSO and have a custom
|
|
`sso_redirect_confirm_template_dir` configuration option set, you will need
|
|
to duplicate the new `sso_auth_confirm.html`, `sso_auth_success.html` and
|
|
`sso_account_deactivated.html` templates into that directory.
|
|
* Synapse plugins using the `complete_sso_login` method of
|
|
`synapse.module_api.ModuleApi` should instead switch to the async/await
|
|
version, `complete_sso_login_async`, which includes additional checks. The
|
|
former version is now deprecated.
|
|
* A bug was introduced in Synapse 1.4.0 which could cause the room directory
|
|
to be incomplete or empty if Synapse was upgraded directly from v1.2.1 or
|
|
earlier, to versions between v1.4.0 and v1.12.x.
|
|
|
|
Please review the [upgrade notes](docs/upgrade.md) for more details on these changes
|
|
and for general upgrade guidance.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Notice of change to the default `git` branch for Synapse
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
With the release of Synapse 1.13.0, the default `git` branch for Synapse has
|
|
changed to `develop`, which is the development tip. This is more consistent with
|
|
common practice and modern `git` usage.
|
|
|
|
The `master` branch, which tracks the latest release, is still available. It is
|
|
recommended that developers and distributors who have scripts which run builds
|
|
using the default branch of Synapse should therefore consider pinning their
|
|
scripts to `master`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Internal Changes
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
- Update the version of dh-virtualenv we use to build debs, and add focal to the list of target distributions. ([\#7526](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/7526))

Synapse 1.12.0 (2020-03-23)
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
Debian packages and Docker images are rebuilt using the latest versions of
|
|
dependency libraries, including Twisted 20.3.0. **Please see security advisory
|
|
below**.
|
|
|
|
Potential slow database update during upgrade
|
|
---------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Synapse 1.12.0 includes a database update which is run as part of the upgrade,
|
|
and which may take some time (several hours in the case of a large
|
|
server). Synapse will not respond to HTTP requests while this update is taking
|
|
place. For imformation on seeing if you are affected, and workaround if you
|
|
are, see the [upgrade notes](docs/upgrade.md#upgrading-to-v1120).
|
|
|
|
Security advisory
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Synapse may be vulnerable to request-smuggling attacks when it is used with a
|
|
reverse-proxy. The vulnerabilties are fixed in Twisted 20.3.0, and are
|
|
described in
|
|
[CVE-2020-10108](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2020-10108)
|
|
and
|
|
[CVE-2020-10109](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2020-10109).
|
|
For a good introduction to this class of request-smuggling attacks, see
|
|
https://portswigger.net/research/http-desync-attacks-request-smuggling-reborn.
|
|
|
|
We are not aware of these vulnerabilities being exploited in the wild, and
|
|
do not believe that they are exploitable with current versions of any reverse
|
|
proxies. Nevertheless, we recommend that all Synapse administrators ensure that
|
|
they have the latest versions of the Twisted library to ensure that their
|
|
installation remains secure.
|
|
|
|
* Administrators using the [`matrix.org` Docker
|
|
image](https://hub.docker.com/r/matrixdotorg/synapse/) or the [Debian/Ubuntu
|
|
packages from
|
|
`matrix.org`](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/setup/installation.html#matrixorg-packages)
|
|
should ensure that they have version 1.12.0 installed: these images include
|
|
Twisted 20.3.0.
|
|
* Administrators who have [installed Synapse from
|
|
source](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/setup/installation.html#installing-from-source)
|
|
should upgrade Twisted within their virtualenv by running:
|
|
```sh
|
|
<path_to_virtualenv>/bin/pip install 'Twisted>=20.3.0'
|
|
```
|
|
* Administrators who have installed Synapse from distribution packages should
|
|
consult the information from their distributions.
|
|
|
|
The `matrix.org` Synapse instance was not vulnerable to these vulnerabilities.
|
|
|
|
Advance notice of change to the default `git` branch for Synapse
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Currently, the default `git` branch for Synapse is `master`, which tracks the
|
|
latest release.
|
|
|
|
After the release of Synapse 1.13.0, we intend to change this default to
|
|
`develop`, which is the development tip. This is more consistent with common
|
|
practice and modern `git` usage.
|
|
|
|
Although we try to keep `develop` in a stable state, there may be occasions
|
|
where regressions creep in. Developers and distributors who have scripts which
|
|
run builds using the default branch of `Synapse` should therefore consider
|
|
pinning their scripts to `master`.
