Synapse 1.42.0rc2 (2021-09-06)
==============================
This version of Synapse removes deprecated room-management admin APIs, removes out-of-date
email pushers, and improves error handling for fallback templates for user-interactive
authentication. For more information on these points, server administrators are
encouraged to read [the upgrade notes](docs/upgrade.md#upgrading-to-v1420).
Features
--------
- Support room version 9 from [MSC3375](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3375). ([\#10747](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10747))
Internal Changes
----------------
- Print a warning when using one of the deprecated `template_dir` settings. ([\#10768](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10768))
This is part of my ongoing war against BaseHandler. I've moved kick_guest_users into RoomMemberHandler (since it calls out to that handler anyway), and split maybe_kick_guest_users into the two places it is called.
* Validate device_keys for C-S /keys/query requests
Closes#10354
A small, not particularly critical fix. I'm interested in seeing if we
can find a more systematic approach though. #8445 is the place for any discussion.
* Keep event fields that maintain the historical event structure intact
Fix https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10521
* Add changelog
* Bump room version
* Better changelog text
* Fix up room version after develop merge
* Make historical messages available to federated servers
Part of MSC2716: https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2716
Follow-up to https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/9247
* Debug message not available on federation
* Add base starting insertion point when no chunk ID is provided
* Fix messages from multiple senders in historical chunk
Follow-up to https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/9247
Part of MSC2716: https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2716
---
Previously, Synapse would throw a 403,
`Cannot force another user to join.`,
because we were trying to use `?user_id` from a single virtual user
which did not match with messages from other users in the chunk.
* Remove debug lines
* Messing with selecting insertion event extremeties
* Move db schema change to new version
* Add more better comments
* Make a fake requester with just what we need
See https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/10276#discussion_r660999080
* Store insertion events in table
* Make base insertion event float off on its own
See https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/10250#issuecomment-875711889
Conflicts:
synapse/rest/client/v1/room.py
* Validate that the app service can actually control the given user
See https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/10276#issuecomment-876316455
Conflicts:
synapse/rest/client/v1/room.py
* Add some better comments on what we're trying to check for
* Continue debugging
* Share validation logic
* Add inserted historical messages to /backfill response
* Remove debug sql queries
* Some marker event implemntation trials
* Clean up PR
* Rename insertion_event_id to just event_id
* Add some better sql comments
* More accurate description
* Add changelog
* Make it clear what MSC the change is part of
* Add more detail on which insertion event came through
* Address review and improve sql queries
* Only use event_id as unique constraint
* Fix test case where insertion event is already in the normal DAG
* Remove debug changes
* Switch to chunk events so we can auth via power_levels
Previously, we were using `content.chunk_id` to connect one
chunk to another. But these events can be from any `sender`
and we can't tell who should be able to send historical events.
We know we only want the application service to do it but these
events have the sender of a real historical message, not the
application service user ID as the sender. Other federated homeservers
also have no indicator which senders are an application service on
the originating homeserver.
So we want to auth all of the MSC2716 events via power_levels
and have them be sent by the application service with proper
PL levels in the room.
* Switch to chunk events for federation
* Add unstable room version to support new historical PL
* Fix federated events being rejected for no state_groups
Add fix from https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/10439
until it merges.
* Only connect base insertion event to prev_event_ids
Per discussion with @erikjohnston,
https://matrix.to/#/!UytJQHLQYfvYWsGrGY:jki.re/$12bTUiObDFdHLAYtT7E-BvYRp3k_xv8w0dUQHibasJk?via=jki.re&via=matrix.org
* Make it possible to get the room_version with txn
* Allow but ignore historical events in unsupported room version
See https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/10245#discussion_r675592489
We can't reject historical events on unsupported room versions because homeservers without knowledge of MSC2716 or the new room version don't reject historical events either.
Since we can't rely on the auth check here to stop historical events on unsupported room versions, I've added some additional checks in the processing/persisting code (`synapse/storage/databases/main/events.py` -> `_handle_insertion_event` and `_handle_chunk_event`). I've had to do some refactoring so there is method to fetch the room version by `txn`.
* Move to unique index syntax
See https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/10245#discussion_r675638509
* High-level document how the insertion->chunk lookup works
* Remove create_event fallback for room_versions
See https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/10245/files#r677641879
* Use updated method name

This adds an API for third-party plugin modules to implement account validity, so they can provide this feature instead of Synapse. The module implementing the current behaviour for this feature can be found at https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse-email-account-validity.
To allow for a smooth transition between the current feature and the new module, hooks have been added to the existing account validity endpoints to allow their behaviours to be overridden by a module.
This implements refresh tokens, as defined by MSC2918
This MSC has been implemented client side in Hydrogen Web: vector-im/hydrogen-web#235
The basics of the MSC works: requesting refresh tokens on login, having the access tokens expire, and using the refresh token to get a new one.

* Trace event persistence
When we persist a batch of events, set the parent opentracing span to the that
from the request, so that we can trace all the way in.
* changelog
* When we force tracing, set a baggage item
... so that we can check again later.
* Link in both directions between persist_events spans
* Room version 7 for knocking.
* Stable prefixes and endpoints (both client and federation) for knocking.
* Removes the experimental configuration flag.
When receiving a /send_join request for a room with join rules set to 'restricted',
check if the user is a member of the spaces defined in the 'allow' key of the join rules.
This only applies to an experimental room version, as defined in MSC3083.
This attempts to be a direct port of https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse-dinsic/pull/74 to mainline. There was some fiddling required to deal with the changes that have been made to mainline since (mainly dealing with the split of `RegistrationWorkerStore` from `RegistrationStore`, and the changes made to `self.make_request` in test code).

This change ensures that the appservice registration behaviour follows the spec. We decided to do this for Dendrite, so it made sense to also make a PR for synapse to correct the behaviour.
This should fix a class of bug where we forget to check if e.g. the appservice shouldn't be ratelimited.
We also check the `ratelimit_override` table to check if the user has ratelimiting disabled. That table is really only meant to override the event sender ratelimiting, so we don't use any values from it (as they might not make sense for different rate limits), but we do infer that if ratelimiting is disabled for the user we should disabled all ratelimits.
Fixes#9663
Running `dmypy run` will do a `mypy` check while spinning up a daemon
that makes rerunning `dmypy run` a lot faster.
`dmypy` doesn't support `follow_imports = silent` and has
`local_partial_types` enabled, so this PR enables those options and
fixes the issues that were newly raised. Note that `local_partial_types`
will be enabled by default in upcoming mypy releases.
This great big stack of commits is a a whole load of hoop-jumping to make it easier to store additional values in login tokens, and then to actually store the SSO Identity Provider in the login token. (Making use of that data will follow in a subsequent PR.)
- Update black version to the latest
- Run black auto formatting over the codebase
- Run autoformatting according to [`docs/code_style.md

- Update `code_style.md` docs around installing black to use the correct version
SynapseRequest is in danger of becoming a bit of a dumping-ground for "useful stuff relating to Requests",
which isn't really its intention (its purpose is to override render, finished and connectionLost to set up the
LoggingContext and write the right entries to the request log).
Putting utility functions inside SynapseRequest means that lots of our code ends up requiring a
SynapseRequest when there is nothing synapse-specific about the Request at all, and any old
twisted.web.iweb.IRequest will do. This increases code coupling and makes testing more difficult.
In short: move get_user_agent out to a utility function.
We do it this way round so that only the "owner" can delete the access token (i.e. `/logout/all` by the "owner" also deletes that token, but `/logout/all` by the "target user" doesn't).
A future PR will add an API for creating such a token.
When the target user and authenticated entity are different the `Processed request` log line will be logged with a: `{@admin:server as @bob:server} ...`. I'm not convinced by that format (especially since it adds spaces in there, making it harder to use `cut -d ' '` to chop off the start of log lines). Suggestions welcome.
This PR adds a confirmation step to resetting your user password between clicking the link in your email and your password actually being reset.
This is to better align our password reset flow with the industry standard of requiring a confirmation from the user after email validation.
By importing from canonicaljson the simplejson module was still being used
in some situations. After this change the std lib json is consistenty used
throughout Synapse.
Add new method ratelimiter.can_requester_do_action and ensure that appservices are exempt from being ratelimited.

The CI appears to use the latest version of isort, which is a problem when isort gets a major version bump. Rather than try to pin the version, I've done the necessary to make isort5 happy with synapse.
Fixes https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/2431
Adds config option `encryption_enabled_by_default_for_room_type`, which determines whether encryption should be enabled with the default encryption algorithm in private or public rooms upon creation. Whether the room is private or public is decided based upon the room creation preset that is used.
Part of this PR is also pulling out all of the individual instances of `m.megolm.v1.aes-sha2` into a constant variable to eliminate typos ala https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/7637
Based on #7637
While working on https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5665 I found myself digging into the `Ratelimiter` class and seeing that it was both:
* Rather undocumented, and
* causing a *lot* of config checks
This PR attempts to refactor and comment the `Ratelimiter` class, as well as encourage config file accesses to only be done at instantiation.
Best to be reviewed commit-by-commit.
Long story short: if we're handling presence on the current worker, we shouldn't be sending USER_SYNC commands over replication.
In an attempt to figure out what is going on here, I ended up refactoring some bits of the presencehandler code, so the first 4 commits here are non-functional refactors to move this code slightly closer to sanity. (There's still plenty to do here :/). Suggest reviewing individual commits.
Fixes (I hope) #7257.
... and set it everywhere it's called.
while we're here, rename it for consistency with `check_user_in_room` (and to
help check that I haven't missed any instances)
We were looking at the wrong event type (`m.room.encryption` vs
`m.room.encrypted`).
Also fixup the duplicate `EvenTypes` entries.
Introduced in #6776.
These are easier to work with than the strings and we normally have one around.
This fixes `FederationHander._persist_auth_tree` which was passing a
RoomVersion object into event_auth.check instead of a string.
Previously we tried to be clever and filter out some unnecessary event
IDs to keep the auth chain small, but that had some annoying
interactions with state res v2 so we stop doing that for now.
Implement part [MSC2228](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2228). The parts that differ are:
* the feature is hidden behind a configuration flag (`enable_ephemeral_messages`)
* self-destruction doesn't happen for state events
* only implement support for the `m.self_destruct_after` field (not the `m.self_destruct` one)
* doesn't send synthetic redactions to clients because for this specific case we consider the clients to be able to destroy an event themselves, instead we just censor it (by pruning its JSON) in the database
We don't actually care about what happens in `get_user_by_req` and
having it as a separate span means that the entity tag isn't added to
the servlet spans, making it harder to search.
This allows support users to be created even on MAU limits via
the admin API. Support users are excluded from MAU after creation,
so it makes sense to exclude them in creation - except if the
whole host is in disabled state.
