+Synapse 1.66.0 (2022-08-31)
+===========================
+
+No significant changes since 1.66.0rc2.
+
+This release removes the ability for homeservers to delegate email ownership
+verification and password reset confirmation to identity servers. This removal
+was originally planned for Synapse 1.64, but was later deferred until now. See
+the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.66/upgrade.html#upgrading-to-v1660) for more details.
+
+Deployments with multiple workers should note that the direct TCP replication
+configuration was deprecated in Synapse v1.18.0 and will be removed in Synapse
+v1.67.0. In particular, the TCP `replication` [listener](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.66/usage/configuration/config_documentation.html#listeners)
+type (not to be confused with the `replication` resource on the `http` listener
+type) and the `worker_replication_port` config option will be removed .
+
+To migrate to Redis, add the [`redis` config](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.66/workers.html#shared-configuration),
+then remove the TCP `replication` listener from config of the master and
+`worker_replication_port` from worker config. Note that a HTTP listener with a
+`replication` resource is still required. See the
+[worker documentation](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.66/workers.html)
+for more details.

+## Security advisory
+
+The following issue is fixed in 1.62.0.
+
+* [GHSA-jhjh-776m-4765](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/security/advisories/GHSA-jhjh-776m-4765) / [CVE-2022-31152](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2022-31152)
+
+  Synapse instances prior to 1.62.0 did not implement the Matrix [event authorization rules](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.3/rooms/v10/#authorization-rules) correctly. An attacker could craft events which would be accepted by Synapse but not a spec-conformant server, potentially causing divergence in the room state between servers.
+
+  Homeservers with federation disabled via the [`federation_domain_whitelist`](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/usage/configuration/config_documentation.html#federation_domain_whitelist) config option are unaffected.
+
+  Administrators of homeservers with federation enabled are advised to upgrade to v1.62.0 or higher.
+
+  Fixed by [#13087](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/13087) and [#13088](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/13088).
