(#7558) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue May 19 14:54:57 UTC 2020 - Marcus Rueckert - Update to 1.13.0 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 UPGRADE.rst for more details on these changes and for general upgrade guidance. For the complete list of changes please refer to https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/releases/tag/v1.13.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Apr 23 15:51:48 UTC 2020 - Marcus Rueckert - Update to 1.12.4 - Features: - Always send users their own device updates.

(#7289) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Apr 3 12:21:52 UTC 2020 - Marcus Rueckert - Update to 1.12.3 - Remove the pin to Pillow 7.0 which was introduced in Synapse 1.12.2, and correctly fix the issue with building the Debian packages. (#7212) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Apr 2 18:27:05 UTC 2020 - Marcus Rueckert - Update to 1.12.2 - This release fixes an issue with building the debian packages. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Apr 2 16:28:51 UTC 2020 - Marcus Rueckert - Update to 1.12.1 - Fix starting workers when federation sending not split out.

Introduced in v1.11.0. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue Mar 24 15:31:47 UTC 2020 - Marcus Rueckert - use %requires_eq for runtime dependencies to make sure we always use the versions we built with. we ran into cases where the distro package was new enough according to the setup dependencies but those were not up2date with the actual code. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Mar 23 14:36:36 UTC 2020 - Marcus Rueckert - Update to 1.12.0 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. - Features - Changes related to room alias management ([MSC2432](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2432)): - Publishing/removing a room from the room directory now requires the user to have a power level capable of modifying the canonical alias, instead of the room aliases. ([\#6965](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/6965)) - Validate the `alt_aliases` property of canonical alias events. ([\#6971](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/6971)) - Users with a power level sufficient to modify the canonical alias of a room can now delete room aliases.

ExecStartPre would have never worked anyway 2. added %{_sbindir}/matrix-synapse-generate-config Usage: %{_sbindir}/matrix-synapse-generate-config servername - fix group and shell for the synapse user - added better-paths.patch - put the pid file into /run/matrix-synapse/ - use a default logging config in /etc/matrix-synapse/log.yaml to have systemd logging by default - use full path in the service file - actually use source 50 instead of the service file in the tarball - make permissions tighter on the config files as it contains passwords and other secrets: root:synapse u=rwX,g=rX,o= ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Jan 23 13:45:22 UTC 2020 - Aleksa Sarai - Update to 1.9.0. WARNING: As of this release, Synapse no longer supports versions of SQLite before 3.11, and will refuse to start when configured to use an older version.

As of v1.1.0, Synapse no longer supports Python 2, nor Postgres version 9.4. Thus, we no longer package a Python 2 version of this package. Some other key changes include: * Add monthly active users to phonehome stats. * Allow server admins to define implementations of extra rules for allowing or denying incoming events. * Add --data-dir and --open-private-ports options. * The minimum TLS version used for outgoing federation requests can now be set with federation_client_minimum_tls_version. * Optimise devices changed query to not pull unnecessary rows from the database, reducing database load.

The Requires made it impossible to use matrix-synapse on openSUSE for very little good reason (prometheus metrics will still work on post-0.4.0 prometheus_client, but with changed names). Debian and many other distributions do the same here. + 0001-requirements-prometheus_client.patch ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Jun 12 02:26:48 UTC 2019 - Aleksa Sarai - Update to 1.0.0. This is the first stable release of synapse. It includes a large number of changes but the highlights are: * Ability to configured default room version (with the default now being v4, which has improved state resolution algorithms and event IDs). * The complete removal of "perspectives" support, with all homeservers now being required to use valid TLS certificates (there has been a transition period for several months from the release of 0.99). * Experimental support for "relations" (reactions and edits).

The full changelog is included in /usr/share/doc/packages/matrix-synapse/CHANGES.md. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Sun Apr 14 18:35:48 UTC 2019 - Aleksa Sarai - Update to 0.99.3. The primary changes to previous versions are that self-signed certificates will no longer be generated, and instead LetsEncrypt certificates will be requested instead. Users are strongly recommended to update to this version, because pre-0.99 servers (using self-signed certificates and the perspectives system) will no longer be able to federate with post-1.0 servers.

This mitigates an attack where malicious events injected with depth = 2^63 - 1 render rooms unusable. Depth is used to determine the cosmetic ordering of events within a room, and so the ordering of events in such a room will default to using stream_ordering rather than depth (topological_ordering). This is a temporary solution to mitigate abuse in the wild, whilst a long term solution is being implemented to improve how the depth parameter is used. Full details at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1I3fi2S-XnpO45qrpCsowZv8P8dHcNZ4fsBsbOW7KABI/edit# Pin Twisted to <18.4 until we stop using the private _OpenSSLECCurve API. * Bug Fixes: * Return 401 for invalid access_token on logout (PR #2938) Thanks to @dklug!
