Synapse 1.53.0rc1 (2022-02-15)
==============================

Features
--------

- Add experimental support for sending to-device messages to application services, as specified by [MSC2409](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2409). ([\#11215](#11215), [\#11966](#11966))
- Remove account data (including client config, push rules and ignored users) upon user deactivation. ([\#11655](#11655))
- Experimental support for [MSC3666](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3666): including bundled aggregations in server side search results. ([\#11837](#11837))
- Enable cache time-based expiry by default. The `expiry_time` config flag has been superseded by `expire_caches` and `cache_entry_ttl`. ([\#11849](#11849))
- Add a callback to allow modules to allow or forbid a 3PID (email address, phone number) from being associated to a local account. ([\#11854](#11854))
- Stabilize support and remove unstable endpoints for [MSC3231](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3231). Clients must switch to the stable identifier and endpoint. See the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/develop/upgrade#stablisation-of-msc3231) for more information. ([\#11867](#11867))
- Allow modules to retrieve the current instance's server name and worker name. ([\#11868](#11868))
- Use a dedicated configurable rate limiter for 3PID invites. ([\#11892](#11892))
- Support the stable API endpoint for [MSC3283](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3283): new settings in `/capabilities` endpoint. ([\#11933](#11933), [\#11989](#11989))
- Support the `dir` parameter on the `/relations` endpoint, per [MSC3715](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3715). ([\#11941](#11941))
- Experimental implementation of [MSC3706](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3706): extensions to `/send_join` to support reduced response size. ([\#11967](#11967))

Bugfixes
--------

- Fix [MSC2716](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2716) historical messages backfilling in random order on remote homeservers. ([\#11114](#11114))
- 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`. ([\#11890](#11890))
- Fix a long-standing bug where some unknown endpoints would return HTML error pages instead of JSON `M_UNRECOGNIZED` errors. ([\#11930](#11930))
- Implement an allow list of content types for which we will attempt to preview a URL. This prevents Synapse from making useless longer-lived connections to streaming media servers. ([\#11936](#11936))
- Fix a long-standing bug where pagination tokens from `/sync` and `/messages` could not be provided to the `/relations` API. ([\#11952](#11952))
- Require that modules register their callbacks using keyword arguments. ([\#11975](#11975))
- Fix a long-standing bug where `M_WRONG_ROOM_KEYS_VERSION` errors would not include the specced `current_version` field. ([\#11988](#11988))

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

- Fix typo in User Admin API: unpind -> unbind. ([\#11859](#11859))
- Document images returned by the User List Media Admin API can include those generated by URL previews. ([\#11862](#11862))
- Remove outdated MSC1711 FAQ document. ([\#11907](#11907))

Synapse 1.52.0 (2022-02-08)
===========================

No significant changes since 1.52.0rc1.

Note that [Twisted 22.1.0](https://github.com/twisted/twisted/releases/tag/twisted-22.1.0)
has recently been released, which fixes a [security issue](GHSA-92x2-jw7w-xvvx)
within the Twisted library. We do not believe Synapse is affected by this vulnerability,
though we advise server administrators who installed Synapse via pip to upgrade Twisted
with `pip install --upgrade Twisted` as a matter of good practice. The Docker image
`matrixdotorg/synapse` and the Debian packages from `packages.matrix.org` are using the
updated library.

--------

- Remove account data (including client config, push rules and ignored users) upon user deactivation. ([\#11621](matrix-org/synapse#11621), [\#11788](matrix-org/synapse#11788), [\#11789](matrix-org/synapse#11789))
- Add an admin API to reset connection timeouts for remote server. ([\#11639](matrix-org/synapse#11639))

- Add a config flag to inhibit `M_USER_IN_USE` during registration. ([\#11743](matrix-org/synapse#11743))
- Add a module callback to set username at registration. ([\#11790](matrix-org/synapse#11790))
- Allow configuring a maximum file size as well as a list of allowed content types for avatars. ([\#11846](matrix-org/synapse#11846))


Bugfixes
--------

- Include the bundled aggregations in the `/sync` response, per [MSC2675](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2675). ([\#11612](matrix-org/synapse#11612))
- Fix a long-standing bug when previewing Reddit URLs which do not contain an image. ([\#11767](matrix-org/synapse#11767))
- Fix a long-standing bug that media streams could cause long-lived connections when generating URL previews. ([\#11784](matrix-org/synapse#11784))
- Include a `prev_content` field in state events sent to Application Services. Contributed by @totallynotvaishnav. ([\#11798](matrix-org/synapse#11798))
- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 0.33.3 causing requests to sometimes log strings such as `HTTPStatus.OK` instead of integer status codes. ([\#11827](matrix-org/synapse#11827))

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

- Drop support for Python 3.6, which is EOL. ([\#11683](matrix-org/synapse#11683))
- Remove the `experimental_msc1849_support_enabled` flag as the features are now stable. ([\#11843](matrix-org/synapse#11843))


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

- Preparation for database schema simplifications: add `state_key` and `rejection_reason` columns to `events` table. ([\#11792](matrix-org/synapse#11792))
- Add `FrozenEvent.get_state_key` and use it in a couple of places. ([\#11793](matrix-org/synapse#11793))

Synapse 1.53.0 (2022-02-22)
===========================

No significant changes.

Synapse 1.53.0rc1 (2022-02-15)
==============================

Features
--------

- Add experimental support for sending to-device messages to application services, as specified by [MSC2409](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2409). ([\#11215](matrix-org/synapse#11215), [\#11966](matrix-org/synapse#11966))
- Remove account data (including client config, push rules and ignored users) upon user deactivation. ([\#11655](matrix-org/synapse#11655))
- Experimental support for [MSC3666](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3666): including bundled aggregations in server side search results. ([\#11837](matrix-org/synapse#11837))
- Enable cache time-based expiry by default. The `expiry_time` config flag has been superseded by `expire_caches` and `cache_entry_ttl`. ([\#11849](matrix-org/synapse#11849))
- Add a callback to allow modules to allow or forbid a 3PID (email address, phone number) from being associated to a local account. ([\#11854](matrix-org/synapse#11854))
- Stabilize support and remove unstable endpoints for [MSC3231](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3231). Clients must switch to the stable identifier and endpoint. See the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/develop/upgrade#stablisation-of-msc3231) for more information. ([\#11867](matrix-org/synapse#11867))
- Allow modules to retrieve the current instance's server name and worker name. ([\#11868](matrix-org/synapse#11868))
- Use a dedicated configurable rate limiter for 3PID invites. ([\#11892](matrix-org/synapse#11892))
- Support the stable API endpoint for [MSC3283](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3283): new settings in `/capabilities` endpoint. ([\#11933](matrix-org/synapse#11933), [\#11989](matrix-org/synapse#11989))
- Support the `dir` parameter on the `/relations` endpoint, per [MSC3715](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3715). ([\#11941](matrix-org/synapse#11941))
- Experimental implementation of [MSC3706](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3706): extensions to `/send_join` to support reduced response size. ([\#11967](matrix-org/synapse#11967))

Bugfixes
--------

- Fix [MSC2716](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2716) historical messages backfilling in random order on remote homeservers. ([\#11114](matrix-org/synapse#11114))
- 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`. ([\#11890](matrix-org/synapse#11890))
- Fix a long-standing bug where some unknown endpoints would return HTML error pages instead of JSON `M_UNRECOGNIZED` errors. ([\#11930](matrix-org/synapse#11930))
- Implement an allow list of content types for which we will attempt to preview a URL. This prevents Synapse from making useless longer-lived connections to streaming media servers. ([\#11936](matrix-org/synapse#11936))
- Fix a long-standing bug where pagination tokens from `/sync` and `/messages` could not be provided to the `/relations` API. ([\#11952](matrix-org/synapse#11952))
- Require that modules register their callbacks using keyword arguments. ([\#11975](matrix-org/synapse#11975))
- Fix a long-standing bug where `M_WRONG_ROOM_KEYS_VERSION` errors would not include the specced `current_version` field. ([\#11988](matrix-org/synapse#11988))

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

- Fix typo in User Admin API: unpind -> unbind. ([\#11859](matrix-org/synapse#11859))
