([\#12513](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12513)) +- Add a `default_power_level_content_override` config option to set default room power levels per room preset. ([\#12618](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12618)) +- Add support for [MSC3787: Allowing knocks to restricted rooms](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3787).

([\#12718](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12718)) +- Add a `drop_federated_event` callback to `SpamChecker` to disregard inbound federated events before they take up much processing power, in an emergency.

Deprecate the current callback signature, replace it with a new signature that is both less ambiguous (replacing booleans with explicit allow/block) and more powerful (ability to return explicit error codes). ([\#12808](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12808)) + + +Bugfixes +-------- + +- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.7.0 that would prevent events from being sent to clients if there's a retention policy in the room when the support for retention policies is disabled.
