Synapse 1.12.0 (2020-03-23) =========================== No significant changes since 1.12.0rc1. Debian packages and Docker images are rebuilt using the latest versions of dependency libraries, including Twisted 20.3.0. **Please see security advisory below**. 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://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/master/INSTALL.md#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://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/master/INSTALL.md#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`. Synapse 1.12.0rc1 (2020-03-19) ============================== 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.

Synapse 1.9.0rc1 (2020-01-22) ============================= **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. Administrators are recommended to migrate their database to Postgres (see instructions [here](docs/postgres.md)). If your Synapse deployment uses workers, note that the reverse-proxy configurations for the `synapse.app.media_repository`, `synapse.app.federation_reader` and `synapse.app.event_creator` have changed, with the addition of a few paths (see the updated configurations [here](docs/workers.md#available-worker-applications)).
