MSC3440 requires that a thread cannot be created against an event which already has a relation.

This has quite a few changes in it:

  • Improves validation for relations in the C-S API.
  • Denies events which attempt to start a thread on a message which already has a relation.

Curious why this would legally get hit?

Is it because you might see a thread where the base message is not visible to you/your homeserver, but the subsequent messages are?

Is it OK to divulge the fact that a given event ID is valid and known by the server? (this functionality can be used to check if a event is known ('must be in the same room') or unknown ('unknown event') to the homeserver.)
I would imagine we already give it away somewhere, but just thought it was worth asking..

This is the situation that I was thinking of, yes. (The simple case is if you're invited to a room that doesn't share history and you can't see the thread head, but you can see subsequent messages in it).

I think it is OK to divulge in this case that the event ID is valid. Theoretically you would know already since you've seen other events referencing that event.

It could be used to iterate through whether events are in a room, but that seems unreasonable in terms of the space to scan + rate limits, I think.

Yeah, that seems OK. I don't think we're particularly stringent about this anyway. I can't properly imagine a case where this would hurt us, but that doesn't mean it's not possible (though we probably already divulge this elsewhere)

Naming is still not entirely to my taste but I'll trust you there — not sure any particular set of words will ever be perfect. All else looks good to me — thanks!

Thanks! I'll sleep on it again and see if I can come up with anything. If not I'll merge, as-is.

Synapse 1.48.0 (2021-11-30)
===========================

This release removes support for the long-deprecated `trust_identity_server_for_password_resets` configuration flag.

This release also fixes some performance issues with some background database updates introduced in Synapse 1.47.0.

No significant changes since 1.48.0rc1.

Synapse 1.48.0rc1 (2021-11-25)
==============================

Features
--------

- Experimental support for the thread relation defined in [MSC3440](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3440). ([\#11161](matrix-org/synapse#11161))
- Support filtering by relation senders & types per [MSC3440](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3440). ([\#11236](matrix-org/synapse#11236))
- Add support for the `/_matrix/client/v3` and `/_matrix/media/v3` APIs from Matrix v1.1. ([\#11318](matrix-org/synapse#11318), [\#11371](matrix-org/synapse#11371))
- Support the stable version of [MSC2778](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2778): the `m.login.application_service` login type. Contributed by @tulir. ([\#11335](matrix-org/synapse#11335))
- Add a new version of delete room admin API `DELETE /_synapse/admin/v2/rooms/<room_id>` to run it in the background. Contributed by @dklimpel. ([\#11223](matrix-org/synapse#11223))
- Allow the admin [Delete Room API](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/admin_api/rooms.html#delete-room-api) to block a room without the need to join it. ([\#11228](matrix-org/synapse#11228))
- Add an admin API to un-shadow-ban a user. ([\#11347](matrix-org/synapse#11347))
- Add an admin API to run background database schema updates. ([\#11352](matrix-org/synapse#11352))
- Add an admin API for blocking a room. ([\#11324](matrix-org/synapse#11324))
- Update the JWT login type to support custom a `sub` claim. ([\#11361](matrix-org/synapse#11361))
- Store and allow querying of arbitrary event relations. ([\#11391](matrix-org/synapse#11391))

Bugfixes
--------

- Fix a long-standing bug wherein display names or avatar URLs containing null bytes cause an internal server error when stored in the DB. ([\#11230](matrix-org/synapse#11230))
- Prevent [MSC2716](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2716) historical state events from being pushed to an application service via `/transactions`. ([\#11265](matrix-org/synapse#11265))
- Fix a long-standing bug where uploading extremely thin images (e.g. 1000x1) would fail. Contributed by @Neeeflix. ([\#11288](matrix-org/synapse#11288))
- Fix a bug, introduced in Synapse 1.46.0, which caused the `check_3pid_auth` and `on_logged_out` callbacks in legacy password authentication provider modules to not be registered. Modules using the generic module interface were not affected. ([\#11340](matrix-org/synapse#11340))
- Fix a bug introduced in 1.41.0 where space hierarchy responses would be incorrectly reused if multiple users were to make the same request at the same time. ([\#11355](matrix-org/synapse#11355))
- Fix a bug introduced in 1.45.0 where the `read_templates` method of the module API would error. ([\#11377](matrix-org/synapse#11377))
- Fix an issue introduced in 1.47.0 which prevented servers re-joining rooms they had previously left, if their signing keys were replaced. ([\#11379](matrix-org/synapse#11379))

- Improve performance of various background database updates. ([\#11421](matrix-org/synapse#11421), [\#11422](matrix-org/synapse#11422))

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

- Suggest users of the Debian packages add configuration to `/etc/matrix-synapse/conf.d/` to prevent, upon upgrade, being asked to choose between their configuration and the maintainer's. ([\#11281](matrix-org/synapse#11281))
- Fix typos in the documentation for the `username_available` admin API. Contributed by Stanislav Motylkov. ([\#11286](matrix-org/synapse#11286))
