Synapse 1.45.0rc1 (2021-10-12)
==============================

**Note:** We are aware of [a performance issue](#11049) introduced in Synapse v1.44.0, as well as [a bug](#11025) with the user directory when using application services. While this release candidate doesn't fix either of those issues, a second release candidate is expected to come out in a few days to address them.

Media storage providers module that read from Synapse's configuration need changes as of this version, see the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/develop/upgrade#upgrading-to-v1450) for more information.

   chat/matrix-synapse: Update to 1.47.1 (security)

   Synapse 1.47.1 (2021-11-23)
   ======This release fixes a security issue in the media store, affecting all prior releases 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.

   Security advisory
   -----------------

   The following issue is fixed in 1.47.1.

   - **[GHSA-3hfw-x7gx-437c](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/security/advisories/GHSA-3hfw-x7gx-437c) / [CVE-2021-41281](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2021-41281): Path traversal when downloading remote media.**

     Synapse instances with the media repository enabled can be tricked into downloading a file from a remote server into an arbitrary directory, potentially outside the media store directory.

     The last two directories and file name of the path are chosen randomly by Synapse and cannot be controlled by an attacker, which limits the impact.

     Homeservers with the media repository disabled are unaffected. Homeservers configured with a federation whitelist are also unaffected.

     Fixed by [91f2bd090](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/commit/91f2bd090).

Synapse 1.54.0rc1 (2022-03-02)
==============================

Please note that this will be the last release of Synapse that is compatible with Mjolnir 1.3.1 and earlier.
Administrators of servers which have the Mjolnir module installed are advised to upgrade Mjolnir to version 1.3.2 or later.

Features
--------

- Add support for [MSC3202](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3202): sending one-time key counts and fallback key usage states to Application Services. ([\#11617](#11617))
- Improve the generated URL previews for some web pages. Contributed by @AndrewRyanChama. ([\#11985](#11985))
- Track cache invalidations in Prometheus metrics, as already happens for cache eviction based on size or time. ([\#12000](#12000))
- Implement experimental support for [MSC3720](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3720) (account status endpoints). ([\#12001](#12001), [\#12067](#12067))
- Enable modules to set a custom display name when registering a user. ([\#12009](#12009))
- Advertise Matrix 1.1 and 1.2 support on `/_matrix/client/versions`. ([\#12020](#12020), ([\#12022](#12022))
- Support only the stable identifier for [MSC3069](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3069 `is_guest` on `/_matrix/client/v3/account/whoami`. ([\#12021](#12021))
- Use room version 9 as the default room version (per [MSC3589](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3589)). ([\#12058](#12058))
- Add module callbacks to react to user deactivation status changes (i.e. deactivations and reactivations) and profile updates. ([\#12062](#12062))

Bugfixes
--------

- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.48.0 where an edit of the latest event in a thread would not be properly applied to the thread summary. ([\#11992](#11992))
- Fix long-standing bug where the `get_rooms_for_user` cache was not correctly invalidated for remote users when the server left a room. ([\#11999](#11999))
- Fix a 500 error with Postgres when looking backwards with the [MSC3030](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3030) `/timestamp_to_event?dir=b` endpoint. ([\#12024](#12024))
- Properly fix a long-standing bug where wrong data could be inserted into the `event_search` table when using SQLite. This could block running `synapse_port_db` with an `argument of type 'int' is not iterable` error. This bug was partially fixed by a change in Synapse 1.44.0. ([\#12037](#12037))
- Fix slow performance of `/logout` in some cases where refresh tokens are in use. The slowness existed since the initial implementation of refresh tokens in version 1.38.0. ([\#12056](#12056))
- Fix a long-standing bug where Synapse would make additional failing requests over federation for missing data. ([\#12077](#12077))
- Fix occasional `Unhandled error in Deferred` error message. ([\#12089](#12089))
- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.51.0 where incoming federation transactions containing at least one EDU would be dropped if debug logging was enabled for `synapse.8631_debug`. ([\#12098](#12098))
- Fix a long-standing bug which could cause push notifications to malfunction if `use_frozen_dicts` was set in the configuration. ([\#12100](#12100))
- Fix an extremely rare, long-standing bug in `ReadWriteLock` that would cause an error when a newly unblocked writer completes instantly. ([\#12105](#12105))
- Make a `POST` to `/rooms/<room_id>/receipt/m.read/<event_id>` only trigger a push notification if the count of unread messages is different to the one in the last successfully sent push. This reduces server load and load on the receiving device. ([\#11835](#11835))

Updates to the Docker image
---------------------------

- The Docker image no longer automatically creates a temporary volume at `/data`. This is not expected to affect normal usage. ([\#11997](#11997))
- Use Python 3.9 in Docker images by default. ([\#12112](#12112))

Improved Documentation
----------------------

- Document support for the `to_device`, `account_data`, `receipts`, and `presence` stream writers for workers. ([\#11599](#11599))
- Explain the meaning of spam checker callbacks' return values. ([\#12003](#12003))
- Clarify information about external Identity Provider IDs. ([\#12004](#12004))

Deprecations and Removals
-------------------------

- Deprecate using `synctl` with the config option `synctl_cache_factor` and print a warning if a user still uses this option. ([\#11865](#11865))
- Remove support for the legacy structured logging configuration (please see the the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/develop/upgrade#legacy-structured-logging-configuration-removal) if you are using `structured: true` in the Synapse configuration). ([\#12008](#12008))
- Drop support for [MSC3283](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3283) unstable flags now that the stable flags are supported. ([\#12018](#12018))
- Remove the unstable `/spaces` endpoint from [MSC2946](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2946). ([\#12073](#12073))

Internal Changes
----------------

- Make the `get_room_version` method use `get_room_version_id` to benefit from caching. ([\#11808](#11808))
- Remove unnecessary condition on knock -> leave auth rule check. ([\#11900](#11900))
- Add tests for device list changes between local users. ([\#11972](#11972))

- Preparation for faster-room-join work: parse MSC3706 fields in send_join response. ([\#12011](#12011))
- Preparation for faster-room-join work: persist information on which events and rooms have partial state to the database. ([\#12012](#12012))
- Preparation for faster-room-join work: Support for calling `/federation/v1/state` on a remote server. ([\#12013](#12013))
- Configure `tox` to use `venv` rather than `virtualenv`. ([\#12015](#12015))
- Fix bug in `StateFilter.return_expanded()` and add some tests. ([\#12016](#12016))
- Use Matrix v1.1 endpoints (`/_matrix/client/v3/auth/...`) in fallback auth HTML forms. ([\#12019](#12019))
- Update the `olddeps` CI job to use an old version of `markupsafe`. ([\#12025](#12025))
- Upgrade Mypy to version 0.931. ([\#12030](#12030))
- Remove legacy `HomeServer.get_datastore()`. ([\#12031](#12031), [\#12070](#12070))
- Minor typing fixes. ([\#12034](#12034), [\#12069](#12069))

- Tidy up GitHub Actions config which builds distributions for PyPI. ([\#12051](#12051))
- Move configuration out of `setup.cfg`. ([\#12052](#12052), [\#12059](#12059))
- Fix error message when a worker process fails to talk to another worker process. ([\#12060](#12060))
- Fix using the `complement.sh` script without specifying a directory or a branch. Contributed by Nico on behalf of Famedly. ([\#12063](#12063))
- Add type hints to `tests/rest/client`. ([\#12066](#12066), [\#12072](#12072), [\#12084](#12084), [\#12094](#12094))
- Add some logging to `/sync` to try and track down #11916. ([\#12068](#12068))

- Use `assertEqual` instead of the deprecated `assertEquals` in test code. ([\#12092](#12092))
- Move experimental support for [MSC3440](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3440) to `/versions`. ([\#12099](#12099))
- Add `stop_cancellation` utility function to stop `Deferred`s from being cancelled. ([\#12106](#12106))

- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.54.0rc1 where runtime dependency version checks would mistakenly check development dependencies if they were present and would not accept pre-release versions of dependencies. ([\matrix-org#12129](matrix-org#12129), [\matrix-org#12177](matrix-org#12177))

Internal Changes
----------------

- Update release script to insert the previous version when writing "No significant changes" line in the changelog. ([\matrix-org#12127](matrix-org#12127))
- Relax the version guard for "packaging" added in [\matrix-org#12088](matrix-org#12088). ([\matrix-org#12166](matrix-org#12166))

Synapse 1.54.0rc1 (2022-03-02)
==============================

Features
--------

- Add support for [MSC3202](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3202): sending one-time key counts and fallback key usage states to Application Services. ([\matrix-org#11617](matrix-org#11617))
- Improve the generated URL previews for some web pages. Contributed by @AndrewRyanChama. ([\matrix-org#11985](matrix-org#11985))
- Track cache invalidations in Prometheus metrics, as already happens for cache eviction based on size or time. ([\matrix-org#12000](matrix-org#12000))
- Implement experimental support for [MSC3720](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3720) (account status endpoints). ([\matrix-org#12001](matrix-org#12001), [\matrix-org#12067](matrix-org#12067))
- Enable modules to set a custom display name when registering a user. ([\matrix-org#12009](matrix-org#12009))
- Advertise Matrix 1.1 and 1.2 support on `/_matrix/client/versions`. ([\matrix-org#12020](matrix-org#12020), ([\matrix-org#12022](matrix-org#12022))
- Support only the stable identifier for [MSC3069](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3069 `is_guest` on `/_matrix/client/v3/account/whoami`. ([\matrix-org#12021](matrix-org#12021))
- Use room version 9 as the default room version (per [MSC3589](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3589)). ([\matrix-org#12058](matrix-org#12058))
- Add module callbacks to react to user deactivation status changes (i.e. deactivations and reactivations) and profile updates. ([\matrix-org#12062](matrix-org#12062))

Bugfixes
--------

- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.48.0 where an edit of the latest event in a thread would not be properly applied to the thread summary. ([\matrix-org#11992](matrix-org#11992))
- Fix long-standing bug where the `get_rooms_for_user` cache was not correctly invalidated for remote users when the server left a room. ([\matrix-org#11999](matrix-org#11999))
- Fix a 500 error with Postgres when looking backwards with the [MSC3030](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3030) `/timestamp_to_event?dir=b` endpoint. ([\matrix-org#12024](matrix-org#12024))
- Properly fix a long-standing bug where wrong data could be inserted into the `event_search` table when using SQLite. This could block running `synapse_port_db` with an `argument of type 'int' is not iterable` error. This bug was partially fixed by a change in Synapse 1.44.0. ([\matrix-org#12037](matrix-org#12037))
- Fix slow performance of `/logout` in some cases where refresh tokens are in use. The slowness existed since the initial implementation of refresh tokens in version 1.38.0. ([\matrix-org#12056](matrix-org#12056))
- Fix a long-standing bug where Synapse would make additional failing requests over federation for missing data. ([\matrix-org#12077](matrix-org#12077))
- Fix occasional `Unhandled error in Deferred` error message. ([\matrix-org#12089](matrix-org#12089))
- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.51.0 where incoming federation transactions containing at least one EDU would be dropped if debug logging was enabled for `synapse.8631_debug`. ([\matrix-org#12098](matrix-org#12098))
- Fix a long-standing bug which could cause push notifications to malfunction if `use_frozen_dicts` was set in the configuration. ([\matrix-org#12100](matrix-org#12100))
- Fix an extremely rare, long-standing bug in `ReadWriteLock` that would cause an error when a newly unblocked writer completes instantly. ([\matrix-org#12105](matrix-org#12105))
- Make a `POST` to `/rooms/<room_id>/receipt/m.read/<event_id>` only trigger a push notification if the count of unread messages is different to the one in the last successfully sent push. This reduces server load and load on the receiving device. ([\matrix-org#11835](matrix-org#11835))

Updates to the Docker image
---------------------------

- The Docker image no longer automatically creates a temporary volume at `/data`. This is not expected to affect normal usage. ([\matrix-org#11997](matrix-org#11997))
- Use Python 3.9 in Docker images by default. ([\matrix-org#12112](matrix-org#12112))

Improved Documentation
----------------------

- Document support for the `to_device`, `account_data`, `receipts`, and `presence` stream writers for workers. ([\matrix-org#11599](matrix-org#11599))
- Explain the meaning of spam checker callbacks' return values. ([\matrix-org#12003](matrix-org#12003))
- Clarify information about external Identity Provider IDs. ([\matrix-org#12004](matrix-org#12004))

Deprecations and Removals
-------------------------

- Deprecate using `synctl` with the config option `synctl_cache_factor` and print a warning if a user still uses this option. ([\matrix-org#11865](matrix-org#11865))
- Remove support for the legacy structured logging configuration (please see the the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/develop/upgrade#legacy-structured-logging-configuration-removal) if you are using `structured: true` in the Synapse configuration). ([\matrix-org#12008](matrix-org#12008))
- Drop support for [MSC3283](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3283) unstable flags now that the stable flags are supported. ([\matrix-org#12018](matrix-org#12018))
- Remove the unstable `/spaces` endpoint from [MSC2946](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2946). ([\matrix-org#12073](matrix-org#12073))

Internal Changes
----------------

- Make the `get_room_version` method use `get_room_version_id` to benefit from caching. ([\matrix-org#11808](matrix-org#11808))
- Remove unnecessary condition on knock -> leave auth rule check. ([\matrix-org#11900](matrix-org#11900))
- Add tests for device list changes between local users. ([\matrix-org#11972](matrix-org#11972))
- Optimise calculating `device_list` changes in `/sync`. ([\matrix-org#11974](matrix-org#11974))
- Add missing type hints to storage classes. ([\matrix-org#11984](matrix-org#11984))

- Limit concurrent joins from applications services. ([\matrix-org#11996](matrix-org#11996))
- Preparation for faster-room-join work: when parsing the `send_join` response, get the `m.room.create` event from `state`, not `auth_chain`. ([\matrix-org#12005](matrix-org#12005), [\matrix-org#12039](matrix-org#12039))
- Preparation for faster-room-join work: parse MSC3706 fields in send_join response. ([\matrix-org#12011](matrix-org#12011))
- Preparation for faster-room-join work: persist information on which events and rooms have partial state to the database. ([\matrix-org#12012](matrix-org#12012))
- Preparation for faster-room-join work: Support for calling `/federation/v1/state` on a remote server. ([\matrix-org#12013](matrix-org#12013))
- Configure `tox` to use `venv` rather than `virtualenv`. ([\matrix-org#12015](matrix-org#12015))

- Tidy up GitHub Actions config which builds distributions for PyPI. ([\matrix-org#12051](matrix-org#12051))
- Move configuration out of `setup.cfg`. ([\matrix-org#12052](matrix-org#12052), [\matrix-org#12059](matrix-org#12059))
- Fix error message when a worker process fails to talk to another worker process. ([\matrix-org#12060](matrix-org#12060))
- Fix using the `complement.sh` script without specifying a directory or a branch. Contributed by Nico on behalf of Famedly. ([\matrix-org#12063](matrix-org#12063))

Synapse 1.59.0rc1 (2022-05-10)
==============================

This release makes several changes that server administrators should be aware of:

- Device name lookup over federation is now disabled by default. ([\#12616](#12616))
- The `synapse.app.appservice` and `synapse.app.user_dir` worker application types are now deprecated. ([\#12452](#12452), [\#12654](#12654))

See [the upgrade notes](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/upgrade.md#upgrading-to-v1590) for more details.

Additionally, this release removes the non-standard `m.login.jwt` login type from Synapse. It can be replaced with `org.matrix.login.jwt` for identical behaviour. This is only used if `jwt_config.enabled` is set to `true` in the configuration. ([\#12597](#12597))

Features
--------

- Support [MSC3266](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3266) room summaries over federation. ([\#11507](#11507))
- Implement [changes](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals@4a77139) to [MSC2285 (hidden read receipts)](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2285). Contributed by @SimonBrandner. ([\#12168](#12168), [\#12635](#12635), [\#12636](#12636), [\#12670](#12670))
- Extend the [module API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v1.59/synapse/module_api/__init__.py) to allow modules to change actions for existing push rules of local users. ([\#12406](#12406))
- Add the `notify_appservices_from_worker` configuration option (superseding `notify_appservices`) to allow a generic worker to be designated as the worker to send traffic to Application Services. ([\#12452](#12452))
- Add the `update_user_directory_from_worker` configuration option (superseding `update_user_directory`) to allow a generic worker to be designated as the worker to update the user directory. ([\#12654](#12654))
- Add new `enable_registration_token_3pid_bypass` configuration option to allow registrations via token as an alternative to verifying a 3pid. ([\#12526](#12526))
- Implement [MSC3786](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3786): Add a default push rule to ignore `m.room.server_acl` events. ([\#12601](#12601))
- Add new `mau_appservice_trial_days` configuration option to specify a different trial period for users registered via an appservice. ([\#12619](#12619))

Bugfixes
--------

- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.48.0 where the latest thread reply provided failed to include the proper bundled aggregations. ([\#12273](#12273))

Upstream NEWS, less bugfixes and minor improvements:

Synapse 1.61.0 (2022-06-14)
===========================

This release removes support for the non-standard feature known both as 'groups' and as 'communities', which have been superseded by *Spaces*.

Synapse 1.61.0rc1 (2022-06-07)
==============================

Features
--------

- Add new `media_retention` options to the homeserver config for routinely cleaning up non-recently accessed media. ([\#12732](matrix-org/synapse#12732), [\#12972](matrix-org/synapse#12972), [\#12977](matrix-org/synapse#12977))
- Experimental support for [MSC3772](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3772): Push rule for mutually related events. ([\#12740](matrix-org/synapse#12740), [\#12859](matrix-org/synapse#12859))
- Update to the `check_event_for_spam` module callback: Deprecate the current callback signature, replace it with a new signature that is both less ambiguous (replacing booleans with explicit allow/block) and more powerful (ability to return explicit error codes). ([\#12808](matrix-org/synapse#12808))
- Add storage and module API methods to get monthly active users (and their corresponding appservices) within an optionally specified time range. ([\#12838](matrix-org/synapse#12838), [\#12917](matrix-org/synapse#12917))
- Support the new error code `ORG.MATRIX.MSC3823.USER_ACCOUNT_SUSPENDED` from [MSC3823](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3823). ([\#12845](matrix-org/synapse#12845), [\#12923](matrix-org/synapse#12923))
- Add a configurable background job to delete stale devices. ([\#12855](matrix-org/synapse#12855))
- Allow updating a user's password using the admin API without logging out their devices. Contributed by @jcgruenhage. ([\#12952](matrix-org/synapse#12952))


Deprecations and Removals
-------------------------

- Remove support for the non-standard groups/communities feature from Synapse. ([\#12553](matrix-org/synapse#12553), [\#12558](matrix-org/synapse#12558), [\#12563](matrix-org/synapse#12563), [\#12895](matrix-org/synapse#12895), [\#12897](matrix-org/synapse#12897), [\#12899](matrix-org/synapse#12899), [\#12900](matrix-org/synapse#12900), [\#12936](matrix-org/synapse#12936), [\#12966](matrix-org/synapse#12966))
- Remove contributed `kick_users.py` script. This is broken under Python 3, and is not added to the environment when `pip install`ing Synapse. ([\#12908](matrix-org/synapse#12908))



Synapse 1.60.0 (2022-05-31)
===========================

This release of Synapse adds a unique index to the `state_group_edges` table, in
order to prevent accidentally introducing duplicate information (for example,
because a database backup was restored multiple times). If your Synapse database
already has duplicate rows in this table, this could fail with an error and
require manual remediation.

Additionally, the signature of the `check_event_for_spam` module callback has changed.
The previous signature has been deprecated and remains working for now. Module authors
should update their modules to use the new signature where possible.


Synapse 1.60.0rc2 (2022-05-27)
==============================

Features
--------

- Add an option allowing users to use their password to reauthenticate for privileged actions even though password login is disabled. ([\#12883](matrix-org/synapse#12883))


Synapse 1.60.0rc1 (2022-05-24)
==============================

Features
--------

- Measure the time taken in spam-checking callbacks and expose those measurements as metrics. ([\#12513](matrix-org/synapse#12513))
- Add a `default_power_level_content_override` config option to set default room power levels per room preset. ([\#12618](matrix-org/synapse#12618))
- Add support for [MSC3787: Allowing knocks to restricted rooms](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3787). ([\#12623](matrix-org/synapse#12623))
- Send `USER_IP` commands on a different Redis channel, in order to reduce traffic to workers that do not process these commands. ([\#12672](matrix-org/synapse#12672), [\#12809](matrix-org/synapse#12809))
- Synapse will now reload [cache config](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/usage/configuration/config_documentation.html#caching) when it receives a [SIGHUP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIGHUP) signal. ([\#12673](matrix-org/synapse#12673))
- Add a config options to allow for auto-tuning of caches. ([\#12701](matrix-org/synapse#12701))
- Update [MSC2716](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2716) implementation to process marker events from the current state to avoid markers being lost in timeline gaps for federated servers which would cause the imported history to be undiscovered. ([\#12718](matrix-org/synapse#12718))
- Add a `drop_federated_event` callback to `SpamChecker` to disregard inbound federated events before they take up much processing power, in an emergency. ([\#12744](matrix-org/synapse#12744))
- Implement [MSC3818: Copy room type on upgrade](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3818). ([\#12786](matrix-org/synapse#12786), [\#12792](matrix-org/synapse#12792))
- Update to the `check_event_for_spam` module callback. Deprecate the current callback signature, replace it with a new signature that is both less ambiguous (replacing booleans with explicit allow/block) and more powerful (ability to return explicit error codes). ([\#12808](matrix-org/synapse#12808))


Deprecations and Removals
-------------------------

- Require a body in POST requests to `/rooms/{roomId}/receipt/{receiptType}/{eventId}`, as required by the [Matrix specification](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.2/client-server-api/#post_matrixclientv3roomsroomidreceiptreceipttypeeventid). This breaks compatibility with Element Android 1.2.0 and earlier: users of those clients will be unable to send read receipts. ([\#12709](matrix-org/synapse#12709))



Synapse 1.59.1 (2022-05-18)
===========================

This release fixes a long-standing issue which could prevent Synapse's user directory for updating properly.


Synapse 1.59.0 (2022-05-17)
===========================

Synapse 1.59 makes several changes that server administrators should be aware of:

- Device name lookup over federation is now disabled by default. ([\#12616](matrix-org/synapse#12616))
- The `synapse.app.appservice` and `synapse.app.user_dir` worker application types are now deprecated. ([\#12452](matrix-org/synapse#12452), [\#12654](matrix-org/synapse#12654))

Additionally, this release removes the non-standard `m.login.jwt` login type from Synapse. It can be replaced with `org.matrix.login.jwt` for identical behaviour. This is only used if `jwt_config.enabled` is set to `true` in the configuration. ([\#12597](matrix-org/synapse#12597))


Synapse 1.59.0rc2 (2022-05-16)
==============================


Synapse 1.59.0rc1 (2022-05-10)
==============================

- Implement [changes](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals@4a77139) to [MSC2285 (hidden read receipts)](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2285). Contributed by @SimonBrandner. ([\#12168](matrix-org/synapse#12168), [\#12635](matrix-org/synapse#12635), [\#12636](matrix-org/synapse#12636), [\#12670](matrix-org/synapse#12670))
- Extend the [module API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v1.59/synapse/module_api/__init__.py) to allow modules to change actions for existing push rules of local users. ([\#12406](matrix-org/synapse#12406))
- Add the `notify_appservices_from_worker` configuration option (superseding `notify_appservices`) to allow a generic worker to be designated as the worker to send traffic to Application Services. ([\#12452](matrix-org/synapse#12452))
- Add the `update_user_directory_from_worker` configuration option (superseding `update_user_directory`) to allow a generic worker to be designated as the worker to update the user directory. ([\#12654](matrix-org/synapse#12654))
- Add new `enable_registration_token_3pid_bypass` configuration option to allow registrations via token as an alternative to verifying a 3pid. ([\#12526](matrix-org/synapse#12526))
- Implement [MSC3786](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3786): Add a default push rule to ignore `m.room.server_acl` events. ([\#12601](matrix-org/synapse#12601))
- Add new `mau_appservice_trial_days` configuration option to specify a different trial period for users registered via an appservice. ([\#12619](matrix-org/synapse#12619))


Deprecations and Removals
-------------------------

- Remove unstable identifiers from [MSC3069](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3069). ([\#12596](matrix-org/synapse#12596))
- Remove the unspecified `m.login.jwt` login type and the unstable `uk.half-shot.msc2778.login.application_service` from
  [MSC2778](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2778). ([\#12597](matrix-org/synapse#12597))
- Synapse now requires at least Python 3.7.1 (up from 3.7.0), for compatibility with the latest Twisted trunk. ([\#12613](matrix-org/synapse#12613))

   Update chat/matrix-synapse to 1.43.0

   Synapse 1.43.0 (2021-09-21)
   =============
   This release drops support for the deprecated, unstable API for [MSC2858 (Multiple SSO Identity
   Providers)](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/blob/master/proposals/2858-Multiple-SSO-Identity-Providers.md#unstable-prefix), as well as the undocumented `experimental.msc2858_enabled` config
   option. Client authors should update their clients to use the stable API, available since Synapse 1.30.

   The documentation has been updated with configuration for routing `/spaces`, `/hierarchy` and `/summary` to workers. See [the upgrade
   notes](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v1.43/docs/upgrade.md#upgrading-to-v1430) for more details.

   No significant changes since 1.43.0rc2.

   - Refactor event size checking code to simplify searching the codebase for the origins of certain error strings that are occasionally emitted.
   ([\#10750](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10750))
   - Move tests relating to rooms having encryption out of the user directory tests. ([\#10752](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10752))
   - Use `attrs` internally for the URL preview code & update documentation. ([\#10753](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10753))
   - Minor speed ups when joining large rooms over federation. ([\#10754](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10754), [\#10755](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10755),

   SQLite. ([\#10843](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10843))
   - Fix a long-standing bug in Unicode support of the room search admin API breaking search for rooms with non-ASCII characters. ([\#10859](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10859))
   - Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.37.0 which caused `knock` membership events which we sent to remote servers to be incorrectly stored in the local database.
   ([\#10873](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10873))
   - Fix invalidating one-time key count cache after claiming keys. The bug was introduced in Synapse v1.41.0. Contributed by Tulir at Beeper.

   Log Message:
   chat/matrix-synapse: Update to 1.47.1 (security)

   Synapse 1.47.1 (2021-11-23)
   ======This release fixes a security issue in the media store, affecting all prior releases 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.

   Security advisory
   -----------------

   The following issue is fixed in 1.47.1.

   - **[GHSA-3hfw-x7gx-437c](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/security/advisories/GHSA-3hfw-x7gx-437c) / [CVE-2021-41281](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2021-41281): Path traversal when downloading remote media.**

     Synapse instances with the media repository enabled can be tricked into downloading a file from a remote server into an arbitrary directory, potentially outside the media store directory.

     The last two directories and file name of the path are chosen randomly by Synapse and cannot be controlled by an attacker, which limits the impact.

     Homeservers with the media repository disabled are unaffected. Homeservers configured with a federation whitelist are also unaffected.

     Fixed by [91f2bd090](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/commit/91f2bd090).
