| | | | Adds a new setting `email.invite_client_location` which, if defined, is passed to the identity server during invites.
* Allow server admin to get admin bit in rooms where local user is an admin ↵Erik Johnston2020-12-181-1/+19
| | | | | | | (#8756) This adds an admin API that allows a server admin to get power in a room if a local user has power in a room. Will also invite the user if they're not in the room and its a private room. Can specify another user (rather than the admin user) to be granted power.

* Implement a username picker for synapse (#8942)Richard van der Hoff2020-12-182-12/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The final part (for now) of my work to implement a username picker in synapse itself. The idea is that we allow `UsernameMappingProvider`s to return `localpart=None`, in which case, rather than redirecting the browser back to the client, we redirect to a username-picker resource, which allows the user to enter a username. We *then* complete the SSO flow (including doing the client permission checks). The static resources for the username picker itself (in https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/rav/username_picker/synapse/res/username_picker) are essentially lifted wholesale from https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-synapse-saml-mozilla/tree/master/matrix_synapse_saml_mozilla/res. As the comment says, we might want to think about making them customisable, but that can be a follow-up. Fixes #8876.

* Merge tag 'v1.24.0rc2' into developPatrick Cloke2020-12-041-0/+7
|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Synapse 1.24.0rc2 (2020-12-04) ============================== Bugfixes -------- - Fix a regression in v1.24.0rc1 which failed to allow SAML mapping providers which were unable to redirect users to an additional page. ([\#8878](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8878)) Internal Changes ---------------- - Add support for the `prometheus_client` newer than 0.9.0. Contributed by Jordan Bancino. ([\#8875](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8875))

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | Replaces the `federation_ip_range_blacklist` configuration setting with an `ip_range_blacklist` setting with wider scope. It now applies to: * Federation * Identity servers * Push notifications * Checking key validitity for third-party invite events The old `federation_ip_range_blacklist` setting is still honored if present, but with reduced scope (it only applies to federation and identity servers).

* Add a config option to change whether unread push notification counts are ↵Andrew Morgan2020-11-301-0/+10
| | | | | | | | per-message or per-room (#8820) This PR adds a new config option to the `push` section of the homeserver config, `group_unread_count_by_room`. By default Synapse will group push notifications by room (so if you have 1000 unread messages, if they lie in 55 rooms, you'll see an unread count on your phone of 55). However, it is also useful to be able to send out the true count of unread messages if desired. If `group_unread_count_by_room` is set to `false`, then with the above example, one would see an unread count of 1000 (email anyone?).

* Notes on SSO logins and media_repository worker (#8701)Marcus Schopen2020-11-061-0/+5
| | | | | | | If SSO login is used (e.g. SAML) in a multi worker setup, it should be mentioned that currently all SAML logins must run on the same worker, see https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/7530 Also, if you are using different ports (for example 443 and 8448) in a reverse proxy for client and federation, the path `/_matrix/media` on the client and federation port must point to the listener of the `media_repository` worker, otherwise you'll get a 404 on the federation port for the path `/_matrix/media`, if a remote server is trying to get the media object on federation port, see https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8695
* Add an admin API for users' media statistics (#8700)Dirk Klimpel2020-11-051-0/+83
| | | | | | | | Add `GET /_synapse/admin/v1/statistics/users/media` to get statisics about local media usage by users. Related to #6094 It is the first API for statistics. Goal is to avoid/reduce usage of sql queries like [Wiki analyzing Synapse](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/wiki/SQL-for-analyzing-Synapse-PostgreSQL-database-stats) Signed-off-by: Dirk Klimpel dirk@klimpel.org

* Split admin API for reported events into a detail and a list view (#8539)Dirk Klimpel2020-10-261-54/+90
| | | | | | | | | | | | Split admin API for reported events in detail und list view. API was introduced with #8217 in synapse v.1.21.0. It makes the list (`GET /_synapse/admin/v1/event_reports`) less complex and provides a better overview. The details can be queried with: `GET /_synapse/admin/v1/event_reports/<report_id>`. It is similar to room and users API. It is a kind of regression in `GET /_synapse/admin/v1/event_reports`. `event_json` was removed. But the api was introduced one version before and it is an admin API (not under spec). Signed-off-by: Dirk Klimpel dirk@klimpel.org

* Make event persisters periodically announce position over replication. (#8499)Erik Johnston2020-10-121-4/+9
| | | | | Currently background proccesses stream the events stream use the "minimum persisted position" (i.e. `get_current_token()`) rather than the vector clock style tokens. This is broadly fine as it doesn't matter if the background processes lag a small amount. However, in extreme cases (i.e. SyTests) where we only write to one event persister the background processes will never make progress. This PR changes it so that the `MultiWriterIDGenerator` keeps the current position of a given instance as up to date as possible (i.e using the latest token it sees if its not in the process of persisting anything), and then periodically announces that over replication. This then allows the "minimum persisted position" to advance, albeit with a small lag.

This original purpose for this change is phishing prevention. This solution could also potentially be replaced by a similar one to https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/8004, but across all `*/submit_token` endpoint. This option may still be useful to enterprise even with that safeguard in place though, if they want to be absolutely sure that their employees don't follow links to other domains.

* Move setting of Filter into code.Erik Johnston2020-08-111-7/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | We do this to prevent foot guns. The default config uses a MemoryFilter, but users are free to change to logging to files directly. If they do then they have to ensure to set the `filters: [context]` on the right handler, otherwise records get written with the wrong context. Instead we move the logic to happen when we generate a record, which is when we *log* rather than *handle*. (It's possible to add filters to loggers in the config, however they don't apply to descendant loggers and so they have to be manually set on *every* logger used in the code base)
* Change the default log config to reduce disk I/O and storage (#8040)Erik Johnston2020-08-111-5/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Change default log config to buffer by default. This batches up writes to the filesystem, which is more efficient for disk I/O. This means that it can take some time for logs to get written to disk. Note that ERROR logs (and above) immediately flush the buffer. This only effects new installs, as we only write the log config if started with `--generate-config` (in the same way we do for generating signing keys). * Default to keeping last 4 days of logs. This hopefully reduces the amount of logs kept for new servers. Keeping the last 1GB of logs is likely overkill for new servers, but equally may not be enough for busy ones. Instead, we keep the last four days worth of logs, enough so that admins can investigate any problems that happened over e.g. a long weekend.

(There's still plenty to do here :/). Suggest reviewing individual commits. Fixes (I hope) #7257.

Each tcp replication connection is assigned a "conn_id", which is used to give an ID to a remotely connected worker. In a redis world, there will no longer be a one to one mapping between connection and instance, so instead we need to replace such usages with an ID generated by the remote instances and included in the replicaiton commands. This really only effects UserSyncCommand. * Add CLEAR_USER_SYNCS command that is sent on shutdown. This should help with the case where a synchrotron gets restarted gracefully, rather than rely on 5 minute timeout.

Debian packages and Docker images are rebuilt using the latest versions of dependency libraries, including Twisted 20.3.0. **Please see security advisory below**. Security advisory ----------------- Synapse may be vulnerable to request-smuggling attacks when it is used with a reverse-proxy. The vulnerabilties are fixed in Twisted 20.3.0, and are described in [CVE-2020-10108](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2020-10108) and [CVE-2020-10109](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2020-10109). For a good introduction to this class of request-smuggling attacks, see https://portswigger.net/research/http-desync-attacks-request-smuggling-reborn. We are not aware of these vulnerabilities being exploited in the wild, and do not believe that they are exploitable with current versions of any reverse proxies. Nevertheless, we recommend that all Synapse administrators ensure that they have the latest versions of the Twisted library to ensure that their installation remains secure. * Administrators using the [`matrix.org` Docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/matrixdotorg/synapse/) or the [Debian/Ubuntu packages from `matrix.org`](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/master/INSTALL.md#matrixorg-packages) should ensure that they have version 1.12.0 installed: these images include Twisted 20.3.0. * Administrators who have [installed Synapse from source](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/master/INSTALL.md#installing-from-source) should upgrade Twisted within their virtualenv by running: ```sh <path_to_virtualenv>/bin/pip install 'Twisted>=20.3.0' ``` * Administrators who have installed Synapse from distribution packages should consult the information from their distributions. The `matrix.org` Synapse instance was not vulnerable to these vulnerabilities. Advance notice of change to the default `git` branch for Synapse ---------------------------------------------------------------- Currently, the default `git` branch for Synapse is `master`, which tracks the latest release. After the release of Synapse 1.13.0, we intend to change this default to `develop`, which is the development tip. This is more consistent with common practice and modern `git` usage. Although we try to keep `develop` in a stable state, there may be occasions where regressions creep in. Developers and distributors who have scripts which run builds using the default branch of `Synapse` should therefore consider pinning their scripts to `master`. Synapse 1.12.0rc1 (2020-03-19) ============================== Features -------- - Changes related to room alias management ([MSC2432](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2432)): - Publishing/removing a room from the room directory now requires the user to have a power level capable of modifying the canonical alias, instead of the room aliases.
