Wed Jun 30 14:41:53 UTC 2021 - ecsos <ecsos@opensuse.org>

- Update to 1.37.1
  - This release resolves issues (such as #9490) where one busy room could cause head-of-line blocking,
    starving Synapse from processing events in other rooms, and causing all federated traffic to fall behind. Synapse 1.37.1 processes inbound federation traffic asynchronously, ensuring that one busy room won't impact others. Please upgrade to Synapse 1.37.1 as soon as possible, in order to increase resilience to other traffic spikes.
  - Handle inbound events from federation asynchronously. (#10269, #10272)

-------------------------------------------------------------------

  m.login.application_service as per the spec. In future releases,
  calling this endpoint with an access token - but without a 
  m.login.application_service type - will fail.

Tue May 19 14:28:03 UTC 2020 - ecsos <ecsos@opensuse.org>

- 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.

  Administrators are recommended to migrate their database to Postgres (see instructions here).
  
  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 workers have changed,
  with the addition of a few paths (see the updated configurations here). 
  Existing configurations will continue to work.

      (ipv6 localhost) from receiving federation traffic. (#6229)
  * Updates to the Docker image
    - Fix logging getting lost for the docker image. (#6197)
  * Internal Changes
    - Update user_filters table to have a unique index, and 
      non-null columns. Thanks to @pik for contributing this. 
      (#1172, #6175, #6184)
    - Allow devices to be marked as hidden, for use by features 
      such as cross-signing. This adds a new field with a default 
      value to the devices field in the database, and so the 
      database upgrade may take a long time depending on how many 
      devices are in the database. (#5759)
    - Move lookup-related functions from RoomMemberHandler to 
      IdentityHandler. (#5978)
    - Improve performance of the public room list directory.

      str or bytes can be passed as header keys. (#6077)
    - Add snapcraft packaging information. Contributed by @devec0.
      (#6084, #6191)
    - Kill off half-implemented password-reset via sms. (#6101)
    - Remove get_user_by_req opentracing span and add some tags. 
      (#6108)
    - Drop some unused database tables. (#6115)

      (#6159)
    - Add some metrics on the federation sender. (#6160)
    - Add some logging to the rooms stats updates, to try to track
      down a flaky test. (#6167)
    - Remove unused timeout parameter from _get_public_room_list. 
      (#6179)
    - Reject (accidental) attempts to insert bytes into postgres 
      tables. (#6186)
    - Make version optional in body of PUT 
      /room_keys/version/{version}, since it's redundant. (#6189)
    - Make storage layer responsible for adding device names to 
      key, rather than the handler. (#6193)
    - Port synapse.rest.admin module to use async/await. (#6196)
    - Enforce that all boolean configuration values are lowercase
      in CI. (#6203)

    - Remove Auth.check method. (#6217)
    - Remove format_tap.py script in favour of a perl 
      reimplementation in Sytest's repo. (#6219)
    - Refactor storage layer in preparation to support having
      multiple databases. (#6231)
    - Remove some extra quotation marks across the codebase.(#6236)

- Update to 1.4.1
  * Bugfixes
    - Fix bug where redacted events were sometimes incorrectly
      censored in the database, breaking APIs that attempted to 
      fetch such events. (#6185, 5b0e9948)

-------------------------------------------------------------------

  * Features
    - Use M_USER_DEACTIVATED instead of M_UNKNOWN for errcode when 
      a deactivated user attempts to login. (#5686)
    - Add sd_notify hooks to ease systemd integration and allows 
      usage of Type=Notify. (#5732)
    - Synapse will no longer serve any media repo admin endpoints 
      when enable_media_repo is set to False in the configuration.
      If a media repo worker is used, the admin APIs relating to 
      the media repo will be served from it instead. (#5754, #5848)
    - Synapse can now be configured to not join remote rooms of 
      a given "complexity" (currently, state events) over 
      federation. This option can be used to prevent adverse 
      performance on resource-constrained homeservers. (#5783)

    - The purge_remote_media.sh script was fixed. (#5839)
    - Fix 500 Internal Server Error on publicRooms when the public
      room list was cached. (#5851)
  * Deprecations and Removals
    - Synapse now no longer accepts the -v/--verbose,
      -f/--log-file, or --log-config command line flags, and 
      removes the deprecated verbose and log_file configuration 
      file options. Users of these options should migrate their
      options into the dedicated log configuration. (#5678, #5729)

      intervals for remote hosts. (#5720)
    - Add a set of opentracing utils. (#5722)
    - Cache result of get_version_string to reduce overhead of 
      /version federation requests. (#5730)
    - Return 'user_type' in admin API user endpoints results. (#5731)
    - Don't package the sytest test blacklist file. (#5733)
    - Replace uses of returnValue with plain return, as returnValue
      is not needed on Python 3. (#5736)
    - Blacklist some flakey tests in worker mode. (#5740)
    - Fix some error cases in the caching layer. (#5749)
    - Add a prometheus metric for pending cache lookups. (#5750)

    - Remove DelayedCall debugging from the test suite, as it is no 
      longer required in the vast majority of Synapse's tests. 
      (#5787)
    - Remove some spurious exceptions from the logs where we failed
      to talk to a remote server. (#5790)
    - Improve performance when making .well-known requests by

      the room it's sent in. (#5801)
    - Deny redactions of events sent in a different room. (#5802)
    - Deny sending well known state types as non-state events. 
      (#5805)
    - Handle incorrectly encoded query params correctly by 
      returning a 400. (#5808)
    - Handle pusher being deleted during processing rather than 
      logging an exception. (#5809)
    - Return 502 not 500 when failing to reach any remote server. 
      (#5810)
    - Reduce global pauses in the events stream caused by expensive 
      state resolution during persistence. (#5826)
    - Add a lower bound to well-known lookup cache time to avoid

- Update to 1.2.1
  * Security update
    This release includes four security fixes:
    - Prevent an attack where a federated server could send 
      redactions for arbitrary events in v1 and v2 rooms. (#5767)
    - Prevent a denial-of-service attack where cycles of redaction
      events would make Synapse spin infinitely. (0f2ecb961)
    - Prevent an attack where users could be joined or parted from 
      public rooms without their consent. (#5744)
    - Fix a vulnerability where a federated server could spoof

Thu Jul  4 14:38:21 UTC 2019 - ecsos@opensuse.org

- Update to 1.1.0
  As of v1.1.0, Synapse no longer supports Python 2, 
  nor Postgres version 9.4.
  See the upgrade notes for more details.
  
  This release also deprecates the use of environment variables to 
  configure the docker image. 
  See the docker README for more details.

- Changes from 1.1.0rc2
  * Bugfixes
    - Fix regression in 1.1rc1 where OPTIONS requests to the media
      repo would fail. (#5593)
    - Removed the SYNAPSE_SMTP_* docker container environment 
      variables. Using these environment variables prevented the 
      docker container from starting in Synapse v1.0, even though 
      they didn't actually allow any functionality anyway. (#5596)
    - Fix a number of "Starting txn from sentinel context" 
      warnings. (#5605)
  * Internal Changes
    - Update github templates. (#5552)
    
- Changes from 1.1.0rc1
  As of v1.1.0, Synapse no longer supports Python 2, nor Postgres 
  version 9.4.
  See the upgrade notes for more details.
  * Features
    - Added possibilty to disable local password authentication. Contributed by Daniel Hoffend. (#5092)
    - Add monthly active users to phonehome stats. (#5252)
    - Allow expired user to trigger renewal email sending manually. (#5363)
    - Statistics on forward extremities per room are now exposed via Prometheus. (#5384, #5458, #5461)

    - Fully support SAML2 authentication. Contributed by Alexander Trost - thank you! (#5422)
    - Allow server admins to define implementations of extra rules for allowing or denying incoming events. (#5440, #5474, #5477)
    - Add support for handling pagination APIs on client reader worker. (#5505, #5513, #5531)

    - Add --data-dir and --open-private-ports options. (#5524)
    Split public rooms directory auth config in two settings, in order to manage client auth independently from the federation part of it. Obsoletes the "restrict_public_rooms_to_local_users" configuration setting. If "restrict_public_rooms_to_local_users" is set in the config, Synapse will act as if both new options are enabled, i.e. require authentication through the client API and deny federation requests. (#5534)
    - The minimum TLS version used for outgoing federation requests can now be set with federation_client_minimum_tls_version. (#5550)
    - Optimise devices changed query to not pull unnecessary rows from the database, reducing database load. (#5559)

    - Warn about disabling email-based password resets when a reset occurs, and remove warning when someone attempts a phone-based reset. (#5387)
    - Fix email notifications for unnamed rooms with multiple people. (#5388)
    - Fix exceptions in federation reader worker caused by attempting to renew attestations, which should only happen on master worker. (#5389)
    - Fix handling of failures fetching remote content to not log failures as exceptions. (#5390)
    - Fix a bug where deactivated users could receive renewal emails if the account validity feature is on. (#5394)
    - Fix missing invite state after exchanging 3PID invites over federaton. (#5464)
    - Fix intermittent exceptions on Apple hardware. Also fix bug that caused database activity times to be under-reported in log lines. (#5498)

    - Fix bug where clients could tight loop calling /sync for a period. (#5507)
    - Fix bug with jinja2 preventing Synapse from starting. Users who had this problem should now simply need to run pip install matrix-synapse. (#5514)
    - Fix a regression where homeservers on private IP addresses were incorrectly blacklisted. (#5523)
    - Fixed m.login.jwt using unregistred user_id and added pyjwt>=1.6.4 as jwt conditional dependencies. Contributed by Pau Rodriguez-Estivill. (#5555, #5586)
    - Fix a bug that would cause invited users to receive several emails for a single 3PID invite in case the inviter is rate limited. (#5576)

    - Increase default log level for docker image to INFO. It can still be changed by editing the generated log.config file. (#5547)
    - Send synapse logs to the docker logging system, by default. (#5565)
    - Open the non-TLS port by default. (#5568)
    - Fix failure to start under docker with SAML support enabled. (#5490)
    - Use a sensible location for data files when generating a config file. (#5563)
  * Deprecations and Removals
    - Python 2.7 is no longer a supported platform. Synapse now requires Python 3.5+ to run. (#5425)
    - PostgreSQL 9.4 is no longer supported. Synapse requires Postgres 9.5+ or above for Postgres support. (#5448)
    - Remove support for cpu_affinity setting. (#5525)

    - Demo script now uses python3. (#5460)
    - Synapse can now handle RestServlets that return coroutines. (#5475, #5585)
    - The demo servers talk to each other again. (#5478)
    - Add an EXPERIMENTAL config option to try and periodically clean up extremities by sending dummy events. (#5480)
    - Synapse's codebase is now formatted by black. (#5482)

- Fixed rpmlint warnings
- Changed to specific "synapse" user and group

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri May  4 11:18:46 UTC 2018 - okurz@suse.com

- Update to version v0.28.1:
 * SECURITY UPDATE
    Clamp the allowed values of event depth received over federation to be
    [0, 2^63 - 1]. 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.
