v1.59.0

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)
• The synapse.app.appservice and synapse.app.user_dir worker application types are now deprecated. (#12452, #12654)

See the upgrade notes 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)

Bugfixes

• Fix DB performance regression introduced in Synapse 1.59.0rc2. (#12745)

Synapse 1.59.0rc2 (2022-05-16)

Note: this release candidate includes a performance regression which can cause database disruption. Other release candidates in the v1.59.0 series are not affected, and a fix will be included in the v1.59.0 final release.

Bugfixes

• Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.58.0 where /sync would fail if the most recent event in a room was rejected. (#12729)

Synapse 1.59.0rc1 (2022-05-10)

Features

• Support MSC3266 room summaries over federation. (#11507)
• Implement changes to MSC2285 (hidden read receipts). Contributed by @​SimonBrandner. (#12168, #12635, #12636, #12670)
• Extend the module API to allow modules to change actions for existing push rules of local users. (#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)
• 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)
• Add new enable_registration_token_3pid_bypass configuration option to allow registrations via token as an alternative to verifying a 3pid. (#12526)
• Implement MSC3786: Add a default push rule to ignore m.room.server_acl events. (#12601)
• Add new mau_appservice_trial_days configuration option to specify a different trial period for users registered via an appservice. (#12619)
