Sourced from matrix-synapse's releases.

v1.67.0

Synapse 1.67.0 (2022-09-13)

This release removes using the deprecated direct TCP replication configuration for workers. Server admins should use Redis instead. See the upgrade notes.

The minimum version of poetry supported for managing source checkouts is now 1.2.0.

Notice: from the next major release (1.68.0) installing Synapse from a source checkout will require a recent Rust compiler. Those using packages or pip install matrix-synapse will not be affected. See the upgrade notes.

Notice: from the next major release (1.68.0), running Synapse with a SQLite database will require SQLite version 3.27.0 or higher. (The current minimum version is SQLite 3.22.0.) See #12983 and the upgrade notes for more details.

No significant changes since 1.67.0rc1.

Synapse 1.67.0rc1 (2022-09-06)

Features

• Support setting the registration shared secret in a file, via a new registration_shared_secret_path configuration option. (#13614)
• Change the default startup behaviour so that any missing "additional" configuration files (signing key, etc) are generated automatically. (#13615)
• Improve performance of sending messages in rooms with thousands of local users. (#13634)

Bugfixes

• Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.13 where the List Rooms admin API would return integers instead of booleans for the federatable and public fields when using a Sqlite database. (#13509)
• Fix bug that user cannot /forget rooms after the last member has left the room. (#13546)
• Faster Room Joins: fix /make_knock blocking indefinitely when the room in question is a partial-stated room. (#13583)
• Fix loading the current stream position behind the actual position. (#13585)
• Fix a longstanding bug in register_new_matrix_user which meant it was always necessary to explicitly give a server URL. (#13616)
• Fix the running of MSC1763 retention purge_jobs in deployments with background jobs running on a worker by forcing them back onto the main worker. Contributed by Brad @ Beeper. (#13632)
• Fix a long-standing bug that downloaded media for URL previews was not deleted while database background updates were running. (#13657)
• Fix MSC3030 /timestamp_to_event endpoint to return the correct next event when the events have the same timestamp. (#13658)
• Fix bug where we wedge media plugins if clients disconnect early. Introduced in v1.22.0. (#13660)
• Fix a long-standing bug which meant that keys for unwhitelisted servers were not returned by /_matrix/key/v2/query. (#13683)
• Fix a bug introduced in Synapse v1.20.0 that would cause the unstable unread counts from MSC2654 to be calculated even if the feature is disabled. (#13694)

Updates to the Docker image

• Update docker image to use a stable version of poetry. (#13688)
