Synapse 1.120.0 (2024-11-26)
This release enables the enforcement of authenticated media by default, with exemptions for media that is already present in the
homeserver's media store.
Most homeservers operating in the public federation will not be impacted by this change, given that
the large homeserver matrix.org
enabled this in September 2024 and therefore most clients and servers
will already have updated as a result.
Some server administrators may still wish to disable this enforcement for the time being, in the interest of compatibility with older clients
and older federated homeservers.
See the upgrade notes for more information.
Bugfixes
- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse v1.120rc1 which would cause the newly-introduced
delete_old_otks
job to fail in worker-mode deployments. (#17960)
Synapse 1.120.0rc1 (2024-11-20)
Features
- Enforce authenticated media by default. Administrators can revert this by configuring
enable_authenticated_media
tofalse
. In a future release of Synapse, this option will be removed and become always-on. (#17889) - Add a one-off task to delete old One-Time Keys, to guard against us having old OTKs in the database that the client has long forgotten about. (#17934)
Improved Documentation
- Clarify the semantics of the
enable_authenticated_media
configuration option. (#17913) - Add documentation about backing up Synapse. (#17931)
Deprecations and Removals
- Remove support for MSC3886: Simple client rendezvous capability, which has been superseded by MSC4108 and therefore closed. (#17638)
Internal Changes
- Addressed some typos in docs and returned error message for unknown MXC ID. (#17865)
- Unpin the upload release GHA action. (#17923)
- Bump macOS version used to build wheels during release, as current version used is end-of-life. (#17924)
- Move server event filtering logic to Rust. (#17928)
- Support new package name of PyPI package
python-multipart
0.0.13 so that distro packagers do not need to work around name conflict with PyPI packagemultipart
. (#17932) - Speed up slow initial sliding syncs on large servers. (#17946)
