# Version history
Turn off desktop notifications by default for new users. New users will no longer get desktop and audible notifications for all streams by default. This also updates the `day1` follow-up email to let users know they can customize how and when Zulip notifies them of new messages. Lastly, this adds a `changelog.md` file, following the conventions from keepachangelog.com, to track changes for new releases.
2015-10-06 03:11:24 +02:00
Update version following 7.0 release.
2023-05-31 19:31:37 +02:00
This page contains the release history for the Zulip server. See also the
[Zulip release lifecycle](../overview/release-lifecycle.md).
## Zulip 8.x series
### 8.0 -- unreleased
This section is an incomplete draft of the release notes for the next
major release, and is only updated occasionally. See the [commit
log][commit-log] for an up-to-date list of all changes.
#### Upgrade notes for 8.0
- None yet.
Update version following 6.0 release.
2022-11-18 00:13:58 +01:00
## Zulip 7.x series
version: Update version and changelog after 7.1 release.
2023-06-13 20:17:04 +02:00
### 7.1 -- 2023-06-13
- Added checks to check that Zulip is being installed on a
[supported CPU and OS architecture](../production/requirements.md).
- Improved error-handling around the
[`upgrade-postgresql`](../production/upgrade.md#upgrading-postgresql)
tool.
- Fixed a couple bugs in database migrations as part of the upgrade that could
cause the upgrade to fail to complete.
- Fixed a bug where
[scheduled messages](https://zulip.com/help/schedule-a-message) with `@all`
would fail to send.
- Fixed a bug which would sometimes cause the `j` and `k` keys to not be able to
be typed in the compose box.
- Fixed anonymous access to the “download” link on images in
[public-access streams](https://zulip.com/help/public-access-option).
- Changed the default DNS resolver in nginx’s configuration to match the
system’s; this fixes deployments which use the
[S3 storage backend](../production/upload-backends.md)
and did not run `systemd-resolved`, like Docker and some versions of Debian.
- Updated several pieces of documentation.
- Updated translations, including new translations for Luri (Bakhtiari),
Brazilian Portuguese, and Tagalog.

2022-11-18 00:13:58 +01:00
#### Upgrade notes for 7.0
changelog: Add entry for S3 nginx proxying.
2023-01-10 19:41:23 +01:00
- When the [S3 storage backend](../production/upload-backends.md) is used for
storing file uploads, those contents are now fetched by nginx, cached locally
on the server, and served to clients; this lets clients cache the contents,
and saves them a redirect. However, it may require administrators adjust the
size of the server's cache if they have a large deploy; see the
[documentation](../production/upload-backends.md#s3-local-caching).
- Removed the `application_server.no_serve_uploads` setting in
`/etc/zulip/zulip.conf`, as all uploads requests go through Zulip now.
auth: Add JWT-based user API key fetch. This adds a new endpoint /jwt/fetch_api_key that accepts a JWT and can be used to fetch API keys for a certain user. The target realm is inferred from the request and the user email is part of the JWT. A JSON containing an user API key, delivery email and (optionally) raw user profile data is returned in response. The profile data in the response is optional and can be retrieved by setting the POST param "include_profile" to "true" (default=false). Co-authored-by: Mateusz Mandera <mateusz.mandera@zulip.com>
2022-09-13 17:39:18 +02:00
- Installations using the previously undocumented [JWT authentication
feature](../production/authentication-methods.md#jwt) will need
to make minor adjustments in the format of JWT requests; see the
documentation for details on the new format.
docs: Update changelog since 6.0 release.
2023-05-03 02:42:35 +02:00
- High volume log files like `server.log` are now by default retained
for 14 days, configured via the `access_log_retention_days`
[deployment
option](../production/deployment.md#system-and-deployment-configuration). This
replaces a harder to understand size-based algorithm that was not
easily configurable.
- The URL patterns for
[linkifiers](https://zulip.com/help/add-a-custom-linkifier) have
been migrated from a custom format string to RFC 6570 URL
templates. A database migration will automatically migrate existing
linkifiers correctly in the vast majority of cases, but some fancier
linkfiers may require manual adjustment to generate correct URLs
following this upgrade.
install: Remove PostgreSQL 11 support. Django 4.2 removes this support, so Zulip has not installed with PostgreSQL 11 since 2c20028aa451.
2023-05-05 18:44:38 +02:00
- PostgreSQL 11 is no longer supported; if you are currently using it, you will
need to [upgrade PostgreSQL](../production/upgrade.md#upgrading-postgresql)
before upgrading Zulip.
docs: Clarify that trust of X-Fowarded-Proto is also necessary. Previously, `X-Forwarded-Proto` did not need to be set, and failure to set `loadbalancer.ips` would merely result in bad IP-address rate-limiting and incorrect access logs; after 0935d388f053, however, failure to do either of those, if Zulip is deployed with `http_only`, will lead to infinite redirect loops after login. These are accompanied by a misleading error, from Tornado, of: Forbidden (Origin checking failed - https://zulip.example.com does not match any trusted origins.): /json/events This is most common with Docker deployments, where deployments use another docker container, such as nginx or Traefik, to do SSL termination. See zulip/docker-zulip#403. Update the documentation to reinforce that `loadbalancer.ips` also controls trust of `X-Forwarded-Proto`, and that failure to set it will cause the application to not function correctly.
2023-06-14 04:01:53 +02:00
- Installations that deploy Zulip behind a [reverse proxy][reverse-proxy-docs]
should make sure the proxy is configured to set the `X-Forwarded-Proto` HTTP
header, and that [`loadbalancer.ips` is accurate][loadbalancer-ips] for the
reverse proxy's IP; the documentation has updated its example configurations.
docs: Update changelog for changes since 7.0-beta2.
2023-05-30 01:26:54 +02:00
- Zulip's Twitter preview integration has been disabled due to Twitter
desupporting the API that it relied on.
docs: Fix changelog link to preferred markdown style.

## Zulip 6.x series
version: Update version and changelog after 6.2 release.
2023-05-19 22:34:57 +02:00
### 6.2 -- 2023-05-19
- CVE-2023-28623: Fixed a vulnerability that would allow users to sign up for a
Zulip Server account with an unauthorized email address, despite the server
being configured to require that email addresses be in LDAP. Specifically, if
the organization permissions don't require invitations to join, and the only
configured authentication backends were `ZulipLDAPAuthBackend` and some other
external authentication backend (any aside from `ZulipLDAPAuthBackend` and
`EmailAuthBackend`), then an unprivileged remote attacker could have created a
new account in the organization with an arbitrary email address in their
control that was not in the organization's LDAP directory.
- CVE-2023-32677: Fixed a vulnerability which allowed users to invite new users
to streams when inviting them to the server, even if they did not have
[permission to invite existing users to streams](https://zulip.com/help/configure-who-can-invite-to-streams).
This did not allow users to invite others to streams that they themselves were
not a member of, and only affected deployments with the rare configuration of
a permissive
[realm invitation policy](https://zulip.com/help/restrict-account-creation#change-who-can-send-invitations)
and a strict
[stream invitation policy](https://zulip.com/help/configure-who-can-invite-to-streams).

mobile push notifications service.
- Fixed several bugs in the Zulip server and PostgreSQL version upgrade
processes.

conversations.
- Fixed the left sidebar stream list exiting “more topics” during background
re-rendering, and a related rendering bug.
- Fixed a bug where uploaded files sent via the email gateway were not correctly
associated with the message’s sender.
- Improved error handling for certain puppet failures.
- Silenced a distracting `caniuse browserlist` warning in install/upgrade
output.

- Extracted the documentation on modifying Zulip to a dedicated page.
- Added a new `send_welcome_bot_message` management command, to allow the
sysadmin to send Welcome Bot messages manually after a data import.
- Added new `RABBITMQ_USE_TLS` and `RABBITMQ_PORT` settings for installations
wanting to configure the RabbitMQ connection with a remote RabbitMQ host.
- Added a new `timesync` deployment option to allow installations to override
Zulip’s default of `chrony` for time synchronization.
- Upgraded dependencies for security and bug fixes.

#### Full feature changelog
docs: Copy-edit changelog for clarity.
2022-10-13 07:21:42 +02:00
- Redesigned the message actions popover to be better organized.
- Redesigned moving messages to have a cleaner, more consistent UI that is no
longer combined with the message editing UI. One can now choose to send
automated notices when moving messages within a stream, not only between
streams.
docs: Update changelog with changes staged for 6.0.
2022-10-13 00:00:28 +02:00
- Redesigned full user profiles to have a cleaner look and also
display user IDs, which can be important when using the API. Users
can now administer bot stream subscriptions from the bot's full
profile.
docs: Update changelog for changes merged for 6.0.
2022-11-01 01:10:02 +01:00
- Redesigned the gear menu to display basic details about the Zulip

docs: Copy-edit changelog for clarity.
2022-10-13 07:21:42 +02:00
deletion permissions to be easier to understand.
- Added support for emoji added in unicode versions since 2017, which
had previously been unavailable in Zulip. Users using the deprecated
"Google blobs" emoji set are automatically migrated to the modern
"Google" emoji set. The "Google blobs" emoji set remains available
for users who prefer it, with any new emoji that were added to the
Unicode standard since 2017 displayed in the modern "Google" style.
docs: Update changelog with changes staged for 6.0. We'll be merging a lot more features for the 6.0 release, but this should cover everything merged since 5.0 and not backported to 5.x and thus already released.

permissions settings to be managed using user groups. Over the
coming releases, we plan to migrate all Zulip permissions settings
to be based on this more flexible groups-based system. We currently
expect this migration to be fully backwards-compatible.

muted topics has been replaced by a more standard muted speaker icon.
- Reworked how a new user's language is set to prefer their browser's
docs: Improve a few changelog descriptions.
2022-10-13 02:38:56 +02:00
configured language over the organization's configured
language. This organization-level setting has been renamed to

2022-03-29 17:36:41 +02:00
#### Upgrade notes for 6.0
docs: Document docker-zulip postgres upgrade requirement. Since this is a hard requirement for upgrading the Docker image, it's worth highlighting here.
2022-11-04 19:26:09 +01:00
- Installations using [docker-zulip][docker-zulip] will need to [upgrade
Postgres][docker-zulip-upgrade-database] before upgrading to Zulip
6.0, because the previous default of Postgres 10 is no longer
supported by this release.
auth: Fix up AzureAD Oauth2 docs and config. This commit brings AzureAD config in line with other backends: - SOCIAL_AUTH_AZUREAD_OAUTH2_SECRET gets fetched in computed_settings.py instead of default_settings, consistent with github/gitlab/etc. - SOCIAL_AUTH_AZUREAD_OAUTH2_KEY gets fetched in default_settings via get_secret(..., development_only=True) like other social backends, to allow easier set up in dev environment, in the dev-secrets.conf file. - The secret gets renamed from azure_oauth2_secret to social_auth_azuread_oauth2_secret to have a consistent naming scheme with other social backends and with the SOCIAL_AUTH_AZUREAD_OAUTH2_KEY name. This is backwards-incompatible. The instructions for setting it up are updated to fit how this is currently done in AzureAD.
2022-09-05 13:30:17 +02:00
- Installations using the AzureAD authentication backend will need to
update `/etc/zulip/zulip-secrets.conf` after upgrading. The
`azure_oauth2_secret` secret was renamed to
`social_auth_azuread_oauth2_secret`, to match our other external
authentication methods.
docs: Update changelog with changes staged for 6.0.
2022-10-13 00:00:28 +02:00
- This release contains an expensive migration,
`0419_backfill_message_realm`, which adds data to a new `realm`
column in the message table. Expect it to run for 10-15 minutes per
million messages in the database. The new column is not yet used in
this release, so this migration can be run in the background for
installations hoping to avoid extended downtime.
Release Zulip Server 6.0.
2022-11-17 20:21:05 +01:00
- Custom profile fields with "Pronouns" in their name and the "short
text" field type were converted to the new "Pronouns" field type.

## Zulip 5.x series
version: Update version and changelog after 5.7 release.
2022-11-16 17:03:05 +01:00
### 5.7 -- 2022-11-16
- CVE-2022-41914: Fixed the verification of the SCIM account
management bearer tokens to use a constant-time comparator. Zulip
Server 5.0 through 5.6 checked SCIM bearer tokens using a comparator
that did not run in constant time. For organizations with SCIM
account management enabled, this bug theoretically allowed an
attacker to steal the SCIM bearer token, and use it to read and
update the Zulip organization’s user accounts. In practice, this
vulnerability may not have been practical or exploitable. Zulip
Server installations which have not explicitly enabled SCIM are not
affected.
- Fixed an error with deactivating users with `manage.py sync_ldap_user_data`
when `LDAP_DEACTIVATE_NON_MATCHING_USERS` was enabled.
- Fixed several subtle bugs that could lead to browsers reloading
repeatedly when the server was updated.
- Fixed a live-update bug when changing certain notifications
settings.
- Improved error logs when sending push notifications to the push
notifications service fails.
- Upgraded Python requirements.
version: Update version and changelog after 5.6 release.
2022-08-24 22:10:05 +02:00
### 5.6 -- 2022-08-24
- CVE-2022-36048: Change the Markdown renderer to only rewrite known
local links as relative links, rather than rewriting all local
links. This fix also protects against a vulnerability in the Zulip
mobile app (CVE-2022-35962).
- Added hardening against timing attacks to an internal authentication check.
- Improved documentation for hosting multiple organizations on a server.
- Updated dependencies.
- Updated translations.
version: Update version after 5.5 release.
2022-07-22 02:22:40 +02:00
### 5.5 -- 2022-07-21
- CVE-2022-31168: Fix authorization check for changing bot roles. Due
to an incorrect authorization check in Zulip Server 5.4 and all prior
releases, a member of an organization could craft an API call that
would grant organization administrator privileges to one of their bots.
- Added new options to the `restore-backup` tool to simplify restoring
backups on a system with a different configuration.
- Updated translations, including major updates to the Mongolian and
Serbian translations.
version: Update version and changelog after 5.4 release.
2022-07-12 08:23:28 +02:00
### 5.4 -- 2022-07-11
- CVE-2022-31134: Exclude private file uploads from [exports of public
data](https://zulip.com/help/export-your-organization#export-of-public-data). We
would like to thank Antoine Benoist for bringing this issue to our
attention.
- Upgraded python requirements.
- Improved documentation for load balancers to mention CIDR address
ranges.
- Documented an explicit list of supported CPU architectures.
- Switched `html2text` to run as a subprocess, rather than a Python
module, as its GPL license is not compatible with Zulip’s.
- Replaced `markdown-include` python module with a reimplementation,
as its GPL license is not compatible with Zulip’s.
- Relicensed as GPL the `tools/check-thirdparty` developer tool which
verifies third-party licenses, due to a GPL dependency by way of
`python-debian`.
- Closed a potential race condition in the Tornado server, with events
arriving at exactly the same time as request causing server errors.
- Added a tool to help automate more of the release process.
version: Update version and changelog after 5.3 release.
2022-06-21 22:48:24 +02:00
### 5.3 -- 2022-06-21
- CVE-2022-31017: Fixed message edit event exposure in
protected-history streams.
Zulip allows a stream to be configured as [private with protected
history](https://zulip.com/help/stream-permissions#stream-privacy-settings),
which means that new subscribers should only see messages sent after
they join. However, due to a logic bug in Zulip Server 2.1.0 through
5.2, when a message was edited, the server would incorrectly send an
API event that included both the edited and old content of the
message to all of the stream’s current subscribers, regardless of
whether they could see the original message. The impact of this
issue was reduced by the fact that this API event is ignored by
official clients, so it could only be observed by a user using a
modified client or their browser’s developer tools.
- Adjusted upgrade steps to cause servers using PostgreSQL 14 to
upgrade to PostgreSQL 14.4, which fixes an important potential
database corruption issue.
- Upgraded the asynchronous request handling to use Tornado 6.
- Fixed a crash when displaying the error message for a failed attempt
to create a stream.
- Optimized the steps during `upgrade-zulip`, to reduce the amount of
server downtime.
- Added a `--skip-restart` flag to `upgrade-zulip` which prepares the
new version, but does not restart the server into it.
- Stopped mirroring the entire remote Git repository directly into
`/srv/zulip.git`. This mirroring removed local branches and confused
the state of previous deployments.
- Fixed a bug which could cause the `delete_old_unclaimed_attachments`
command-line tool to remove attachments that were still referenced
by deleted (but not yet permanently removed) messages.
- Stopped enabling `USE_X_FORWARDED_HOST` by default, which was
generally unneeded; the proxy documentation now clarifies when it is
necessary.
- Fixed the nginx configuration to include the default system-level
nginx modules.
- Only attempt to fix the `certbot` SSL renewal configuration if HTTPS
is enabled; this addresses a regression in Zulip Server 5.2, where
the upgrade would fail if an improperly configured certificate
existed, but was both expired and not in use.
- Improved proxy and database backup documentation.
version: Update version and changelog after 5.2 release.
2022-05-04 03:00:01 +02:00
### 5.2 -- 2022-05-03
- Fixed a performance regression in the UI, introduced in 5.0, when
opening the compose box.
- Fixed a bug which could intermittently cause URL previews to fail,
if Zulip was being run in Docker or in low-memory environments.
- Fixed an issue which would cause PostgreSQL 10 and PostgreSQL 11 to
attempt to write each WAL log to S3, even if S3 WAL
backups/replication were not configured.
- Fixed an issue which prevented the SCIM integration from
deactivating users.
- Fixed a bug that resulted in an “You unsubscribed” notice
incorrectly appearing when new messages arrived in a topic being
viewed via a “near” link.
- Fixed digest emails being incorrectly sent if a user was deactivated
after the digest was enqueued but before it was processed.
- Fixed warning about `EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD` being unset when
explicitly set to empty.
- Fixed incomplete tracebacks when timeouts happen during Markdown
rendering.
- Fixed some older versions of Zulip Server not being considered when
comparing for the likely original version of `settings.py`.
- Stopped using the `database_password` if it is set but
`database_user` is not.
- Stopped trying to fix LetsEncrypt certificate configuration if they
were not currently in use.
- Sorted and prettified the output of the
`check-database-compatibility` tool.
- Split the large `zerver/lib/actions.py` file into many files under
`zerver/actions/`. This non-functional change was backported to
ensure it remains easy to backport other changes.
- Updated documentation to reflect that current mobile apps are only
guaranteed to be compatible with Zulip Server 3.0 and later; they
may also work with earlier versions, with a degraded experience.

### 5.1 -- 2022-04-01
- Fixed upgrade bug where preexisting animated emoji would still
always animate in statuses.
- Improved check that prevents servers from accidentally downgrading,
to not block upgrading servers that originally installed Zulip
Server prior to mid-2017.
- Fixed email address de-duplication in Slack imports.
- Prevented an extraneous scrollbar when a notification banner was
present across the top.
- Fixed installation in LXC containers, which failed due to `chrony`
not being runnable there.
- Prevented a "push notifications not configured" warning from
appearing in the new user default settings panel even when push
notifications were configured.
- Fixed a bug which, in uncommon configurations, would prevent Tornado
from being restarted during upgrades; users would be able to log in,
but would immediately be logged out.
- Updated translations.

manage a variety of workflows, including support interactions,
answering questions, and investigating issues.
- Administrators may enable the option to create [web-public
streams](https://zulip.com/help/web-public-streams). Web-public
streams can be viewed by anyone on the Internet without creating an
account in your organization.
- Users can now select a status emoji alongside their status
message. Status emoji are shown next to the user's name in the
sidebars, message feed, and compose box. Animated status emoji will
only animate on hover.
- Redesigned the compose box, adding formatting buttons for bold,
italics and links as well as visual improvements. New button for
inserting global times into your message.

more consistent style with the rest of Zulip's settings.
- Stream creation was redesigned with a much cleaner interface,
especially for selecting initial subscribers.

#### Upgrade notes for 5.0
migrations: Add progress output to confirmation backfill. This makes it a lot easier to estimate how long this migration will take to run. Additionally, document this migration in the upgrade notes.
2021-09-17 20:16:10 +02:00
- This release contains a migration, `0009_confirmation_expiry_date_backfill`,
that can take several minutes to run on a server with millions of
messages of history.
portico: Use /help/ style pages for displaying policies. This replaces the TERMS_OF_SERVICE and PRIVACY_POLICY settings with just a POLICIES_DIRECTORY setting, in order to support settings (like Zulip Cloud) where there's more policies than just those two. With minor changes by Eeshan Garg.
2021-11-03 21:36:54 +01:00
- The `TERMS_OF_SERVICE` and `PRIVACY_POLICY` settings have been
removed in favor of a system that supports additional policy
documents, such as a code of conduct. See the [updated
documentation](../production/settings.md) for the new system.
Turn off desktop notifications by default for new users. New users will no longer get desktop and audible notifications for all streams by default. This also updates the `day1` follow-up email to let users know they can customize how and when Zulip notifies them of new messages. Lastly, this adds a `changelog.md` file, following the conventions from keepachangelog.com, to track changes for new releases.

## Zulip 4.x series
changelog: Make Zulip 4.8 - 4.11 headings consistent.
2022-06-25 01:00:57 +02:00
### 4.11 -- 2022-03-15
version: Update version and changelog after 4.11 release.
2022-03-15 22:23:42 +01:00
- CVE-2022-24751: Zulip Server 4.0 and above were susceptible to a
race condition during user deactivation, where a simultaneous access
by the user being deactivated may, in rare cases, allow continued
access by the deactivated user. This access could theoretically
continue until one of the following events happens:
- The session expires from memcached; this defaults to two weeks, and
is controlled by SESSION_COOKIE_AGE in /etc/zulip/settings.py
- The session cache is evicted from memcached by other cached data.
- The server is upgraded, which clears the cache.
- Updated translations.
changelog: Make Zulip 4.8 - 4.11 headings consistent.
2022-06-25 01:00:57 +02:00
### 4.10 -- 2022-02-25
version: Update version and changelog after 4.10 release.
2022-02-25 22:19:38 +01:00
- CVE-2022-21706: Reusable invitation links could be improperly used
for other organizations.
- CVE-2021-3967: Enforce that regenerating an API key must be done
with an API key, not a cookie. Thanks to nhiephon
(twitter.com/\_nhiephon) for their responsible disclosure of this
vulnerability.
- Fixed a bug with the `reindex-textual-data` tool, where it would
sometimes fail to find the libraries it needed.
- Pin PostgreSQL to 10.19, 11.14, 12.9, 13.5 or 14.1 to avoid a
regression which caused deploys with PGroonga enabled to
unpredictably fail database queries with the error
`variable not found in subplan target list`.
- Fix ARM64 support; however, the wal-g binary is not yet supported on
ARM64 (zulip/zulip#21070).
changelog: Make Zulip 4.8 - 4.11 headings consistent.
2022-06-25 01:00:57 +02:00
### 4.9 -- 2022-01-24
version: Update version and changelog after 4.9 release.
2022-01-25 03:46:46 +01:00
CVE-2021-43799: Set a secure Erlang cookie. The RabbitMQ docs state ([1]): RabbitMQ nodes and CLI tools (e.g. rabbitmqctl) use a cookie to determine whether they are allowed to communicate with each other. [...] The cookie is just a string of alphanumeric characters up to 255 characters in size. It is usually stored in a local file. ...and goes on to state (emphasis ours): If the file does not exist, Erlang VM will try to create one with a randomly generated value when the RabbitMQ server starts up. Using such generated cookie files are **appropriate in development environments only.** The auto-generated cookie does not use cryptographic sources of randomness, and generates 20 characters of `[A-Z]`. Because of a semi-predictable seed, the entropy of this password is thus less than the idealized 26^20 = 94 bits of entropy; in actuality, it is 36 bits of entropy, or potentially as low as 20 if the performance of the server is known. These sizes are well within the scope of remote brute-force attacks. On provision, install, and upgrade, replace the default insecure 20-character Erlang cookie with a cryptographically secure 255-character string (the max length allowed). [1] https://www.rabbitmq.com/clustering.html#erlang-cookie
2021-12-07 21:55:38 +01:00
- CVE-2021-43799: Remote execution of code involving RabbitMQ.
CVE-2021-43799: Write rabbitmq configuration before starting. Zulip writes a `rabbitmq.config` configuration file which locks down RabbitMQ to listen only on localhost:5672, as well as the RabbitMQ distribution port, on localhost:25672. The "distribution port" is part of Erlang's clustering configuration; while it is documented that the protocol is fundamentally insecure ([1], [2]) and can result in remote arbitrary execution of code, by default the RabbitMQ configuration on Debian and Ubuntu leaves it publicly accessible, with weak credentials. The configuration file that Zulip writes, while effective, is only written _after_ the package has been installed and the service started, which leaves the port exposed until RabbitMQ or system restart. Ensure that rabbitmq's `/etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq.config` is written before rabbitmq is installed or starts, and that changes to that file trigger a restart of the service, such that the ports are only ever bound to localhost. This does not mitigate existing installs, since it does not force a rabbitmq restart. [1] https://www.erlang.org/doc/apps/erts/erl_dist_protocol.html [2] https://www.erlang.org/doc/reference_manual/distributed.html#distributed-erlang-system
2021-12-04 04:08:52 +01:00
- Closed access to RabbitMQ port 25672; initial installs tried to
close this port, but failed to restart RabbitMQ for the
configuration.
puppet: Always set the RabbitMQ nodename to zulip@localhost. This is required in order to lock down the RabbitMQ port to only listen on localhost. If the nodename is `rabbit@hostname`, in most circumstances the hostname will resolve to an external IP, which the rabbitmq port will not be bound to. Installs which used `rabbit@hostname`, due to RabbitMQ having been installed before Zulip, would not have functioned if the host or RabbitMQ service was restarted, as the localhost restrictions in the RabbitMQ configuration would have made rabbitmqctl (and Zulip cron jobs that call it) unable to find the rabbitmq server. The previous commit ensures that configure-rabbitmq is re-run after the nodename has changed. However, rabbitmq needs to be stopped before `rabbitmq-env.conf` is changed; we use an `onlyif` on an `exec` to print the warning about the node change, and let the subsequent config change and notify of the service and configure-rabbitmq to complete the re-configuration.
2021-12-14 21:00:48 +01:00
- Removed the `rabbitmq.nodename` configuration in `zulip.conf`; all
RabbitMQ instances will be reconfigured to have a nodename of
`zulip@localhost`. You can remove this setting from your
`zulip.conf` configuration file, if it exists.
version: Update version and changelog after 4.9 release.
2022-01-25 03:46:46 +01:00
- Added missing support for the Camo image proxy in the Docker
image. This resolves a longstanding issue with image previews, if
enabled, appearing as broken images for Docker-based installs.
- Fixed a bug which allowed a user to edit a message to add a wildcard
mention when they did not have permissions to send such messages
originally.
- Fixed a bug in the tool that corrects database corruption caused by
updating the operating system hosting PostgreSQL, which previously
omitted some indexes from its verification. If you updated the
operating system of your Zulip instance from Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04,

even if you did so previously; full details and instructions are

- Began routing requests from the Camo image proxy through a
non-Smokescreen proxy, if one is configured; because Camo includes
logic to deny access to private subnets, routing its requests
through Smokescreen is generally not necessary.
- Fixed a bug where changing the Camo secret required running
`zulip-puppet-apply`.
- Fixed `scripts/setup/compare-settings-to-template` to be able to run
from any directory.
- Switched Let's Encrypt renewal to use its own timer, rather than our
custom cron job. This fixes a bug where occasionally `nginx` would
not reload after getting an updated certificate.
- Updated documentation and tooling to note that installs using
`upgrade-zulip-from-git` require 3 GB of RAM, or 2 GB and at least 1
GB of swap.
puppet: Always set the RabbitMQ nodename to zulip@localhost. This is required in order to lock down the RabbitMQ port to only listen on localhost. If the nodename is `rabbit@hostname`, in most circumstances the hostname will resolve to an external IP, which the rabbitmq port will not be bound to. Installs which used `rabbit@hostname`, due to RabbitMQ having been installed before Zulip, would not have functioned if the host or RabbitMQ service was restarted, as the localhost restrictions in the RabbitMQ configuration would have made rabbitmqctl (and Zulip cron jobs that call it) unable to find the rabbitmq server. The previous commit ensures that configure-rabbitmq is re-run after the nodename has changed. However, rabbitmq needs to be stopped before `rabbitmq-env.conf` is changed; we use an `onlyif` on an `exec` to print the warning about the node change, and let the subsequent config change and notify of the service and configure-rabbitmq to complete the re-configuration.

changelog: Make Zulip 4.8 - 4.11 headings consistent.
2022-06-25 01:00:57 +02:00
### 4.8 -- 2021-12-01
version: Update version and changelog after 4.8 release.
2021-12-02 00:42:11 +01:00
- CVE-2021-43791: Zulip could fail to enforce expiration dates
on confirmation keys, allowing users to potentially use expired
invitations, self-registrations, or realm creation links.
- Began installing Smokescreen to harden Zulip against SSRF attacks by
default. Zulip has offered Smokescreen as an option since Zulip
4.0. Existing installs which configured an outgoing proxy which is
not on `localhost:4750` will continue to use that; all other
installations will begin having a Smokescreen installation listening
on 127.0.0.1, which Zulip will proxy traffic through. The version of
Smokescreen was also upgraded.
- Replaced the camo image proxy with go-camo, a maintained
reimplementation that also protects against SSRF attacks. This
server now listens only on 127.0.0.1 when it is deployed as part of
a standalone deployment.
- Began using camo for images displayed in URL previews. This improves
privacy and also resolves an issue where an image link to a third
party server with an expired or otherwise invalid SSL certificate
would trigger a confusing pop-up window for Zulip Desktop users.
- Fixed a bug which could cause Tornado to shut down improperly
(causing an immediate full-page reload for their clients) when
restarting a heavily loaded Zulip server.
- Updated Python dependencies.
- Truncated large “remove” mobile notification events so that marking
hundreds of private messages or other notifiable messages as read at
once won’t exceed Apple’s 4 KB notification size limit.
- Slack importer improvements:
- Ensured that generated fake email addresses for Slack bots are
unique.
- Added support for importing Slack exports from a directory, not
just a .zip file.
- Provided better error messages with invalid Slack tokens.
- Added support for non-ASCII Unicode folder names on Windows.
- Add support for V3 Pagerduty webhook.
- Updated documentation for Apache SSO, which now requires additional
configuration now that Zulip uses a C extension (the `re2` module).
- Fixed a bug where an empty name in a SAML response would raise an
error.
- Ensured that `deliver_scheduled_emails` and
`deliver_scheduled_messages` did not double-deliver if run on
multiple servers at once.
- Extended Certbot troubleshooting documentation.
- Fixed a bug in soft deactivation catch-up code, in cases where a
race condition had created multiple subscription deactivation
entries for a single user and single stream in the audit log.
- Updated translations, including adding a Sinhala translation.
version: Update version and changelog after 4.7 release.
2021-10-04 23:52:52 +02:00
### 4.7 -- 2021-10-04
- CVE-2021-41115: Prevent organization administrators from affecting
the server with a regular expression denial-of-service attack
through linkifier patterns.
version: Update version and changelog after 4.6 release.
2021-09-24 00:14:20 +02:00
### 4.6 -- 2021-09-23
- Documented official support for Debian 11 Bullseye, now that it is
officially released by Debian upstream.
- Fixed installation on Debian 10 Buster. Upstream infrastructure had
broken the Python `virtualenv` tool on this platform, which we've
worked around for this release.
- Zulip releases are now distributed from https://download.zulip.com/server/,
replacing the old `www.zulip.org` server.
- Added support for LDAP synchronization of the `is_realm_owner` and
`is_moderator` flags.
- `upgrade-zulip-from-git` now uses `git fetch --prune`; this ensures
`upgrade-zulip-from-git master` with return an error rather than
using a stale cached version of the `master` branch, which was
renamed to `main` this month.
- Added a new `reset_authentication_attempt_count` management command
to allow sysadmins to manually reset authentication rate limits.
- Fixed a bug that caused the `upgrade-postgresql` tool to
incorrectly remove `supervisord` configuration for `process-fts-updates`.
- Fixed a rare migration bug when upgrading from Zulip versions 2.1 and older.
- Fixed a subtle bug where the left sidebar would show both old and
new names for some topics that had been renamed.
- Fixed incoming email gateway support for configurations
with the `http_only` setting enabled.
- Fixed issues where Zulip's outgoing webhook, with the
Slack-compatible interface, had a different format from Slack's
documented interface.
- The installation and upgrade documentations now show the latest
release's version number.
- Backported many improvements to the ReadTheDocs documentation.
- Updated translation data from Transifex.
version: Update version and changelog after 4.5 release.

upgrades (was listed in 4.4 release notes, but accidentally omitted).
### 4.4 -- 2021-07-22
version: Update version and changelog after 4.4 release.
2021-07-23 02:11:50 +02:00
- Fixed a possible denial-of-service attack in Markdown fenced code
block parsing.
- Smokescreen, if installed, now defaults to only listening on
127.0.0.1; this prevents it from being used as an open HTTP proxy if
it did not have other firewalls protecting incoming port 4750.
- Fixed a performance/scalability issue for installations using the S3
file uploads backend.
- Fixed a bug where users could turn other users’ messages they could
read into widgets (e.g. polls).
- Fixed a bug where emoji and avatar image requests were sent through
Camo; doing so does not add any security benefit, and broke custom
emoji that had been imported from Slack in Zulip 1.8.1 or earlier.
- Changed to log just a warning, instead of an exception, in the case
that the `embed_links` worker cannot fetch previews for all links in
a message within the 30-second timeout. Each preview request within
a message already has a 15-second timeout.
- Ensured `psycopg2` is installed before starting
`process_fts_updates`; otherwise, it might fail to start several
times before the package was installed.
- Worked around a bug in supervisor where, when using SysV init,
`/etc/init.d/supervisor restart` would only have stopped, not
restarted, the process.
- Modified upgrade scripts to better handle failure, and suggest next
steps and point to logs.
- Zulip now hides the “show password” eye icon that IE and Edge
browsers place in password inputs; this duplicated the
already-present JavaScript-based functionality.
- Fixed “OR” glitch on login page if SAML authentication is enabled
but not configured.
- The `send_test_email` management command now shows the full SMTP
conversation on failure.
- Provided a `change_password` management command which takes a
`--realm` option.
- Fixed `upgrade-zulip-from-git` crashing in CSS source map generation
on 1-CPU systems.
- Added an `auto_signup` field in SAML configuration to auto-create
accounts upon first login attempt by users which are authenticated
by SAML.
- Provided better error messages when `puppet_classes` in `zulip.conf`
are mistakenly space-separated instead of comma-separated.
- Updated translations for many languages.
version: Update version and changelog after 4.3 release.
2021-06-02 20:07:38 +02:00
### 4.3 -- 2021-06-02
- Fixed exception when upgrading older servers with the
`JITSI_SERVER_URL` setting set to `None` to disable Jitsi.
- Fixed GIPHY integration dropdown appearing when the server
doesn't have a GIPHY API key configured.
- The GIPHY API library is no longer loaded for users who are not
actively using the GIPHY integration.
- Improved formatting for Grafana integration.
- Fixed previews of Dropbox image links.
- Fixed support for storing avatars/emoji in non-S3 upload backends.

- Zulip's top-level puppet classes have been renamed, largely from
`zulip::foo` to `zulip::profile::foo`. Configuration referencing
these `/etc/zulip/zulip.conf` will be automatically updated during
the upgrade process, but if you have a complex deployment or you
maintain `zulip.conf` is another system (E.g. with the [manual

docs: Update changelog for 3.3/3.4 releases.
2021-04-14 20:47:18 +02:00
- CVE-2021-30487: Prevent administrators from moving topics to
disallowed streams.
- CVE-2021-30479: Prevent guest user access to `all_public_streams`
API.
- CVE-2021-30478: Prevent API super users from forging messages to
other organizations.
- CVE-2021-30477: Prevent outgoing webhook bots from sending arbitrary
messages to any stream.
- Fixed a potential HTML injection bug in outgoing emails.
- Fixed Postfix configuration error which would prevent outgoing email
to any email address containing `.`, `+`, or starting with `mm`, when
configured to use the local Postfix to deliver outgoing email.
docs: Rewrap to avoid line breaks in inline code spans. This works around https://github.com/prettier/prettier/issues/11372. Signed-off-by: Anders Kaseorg <anders@zulip.com>

- Fixed a backporting error which caused the
`manage.py change_user_role` tool to not work for `admin`, `member`,
or `guest` roles.

2021-04-14 20:47:18 +02:00

2021-04-14 20:47:18 +02:00

organization full members can post.” This flaw has existed since
docs: Update changelog for 3.3/3.4 releases.
2021-04-14 20:47:18 +02:00
the feature was added in Zulip Server 3.0.
- Permit outgoing mail from postfix; this resolves a bug introduced in
Zulip Server 3.2 which prevented Zulip from sending outgoing mail if
the local mail server (used mostly for incoming mail) was also used
for outgoing email (`MAIL_HOST='localhost'`).
- Ensure that the `upgrade-postgres` tool upgrades the cluster’s data
to the specific PostgreSQL version requested; this resolves a bug
where, now that PostgreSQL 13 has been released, `upgrade-postgres`
would attempt to upgrade to that version and not PostgreSQL 12.
- Replace the impenetrably-named `./manage.py knight` with
`./manage.py change_user_role`, and extend it to support
“Organization owner” roles.

docs: Update changelog for 3.1/3.2 releases.
2020-09-18 01:54:08 +02:00
- Switched from `libmemcached` to `python-binary-memcached`, a
pure-Python implementation; this should eliminate memcached
connection problems affecting some installations.
- Removed unnecessary `django-cookies-samesite` dependency, which had
its latest release removed from PyPI (breaking installation of Zulip
3.1).
- Limited which local email addresses Postfix accepts when the
incoming email integration is enabled; this prevents the enumeration
of local users via the email system.
- Fixed incorrectly case-sensitive email validation in `REMOTE_USER`
authentication.
- Fixed search results for `has:image`.
- Fixed ability to adjust "Who can post on the stream" configuration.
- Fixed display of "Permission [to post] will be granted in n days"
for n > 365.
- Support providing `nginx_listen_port` setting in conjunction with
`http_only` in `zulip.conf`.
- Improved upgrade documentation.
- Removed internal ID lists which could leak into the events API.

### 3.0 -- 2020-07-16
Release Zulip Server 3.0-rc1.
2020-07-02 02:37:54 +02:00
docs: Simplify reviewing upgrade notes before upgrading. This adds a convenient way to review the upgrade notes for all Zulip releases that one is upgrading across. I thought about moving all the upgrade notes to a common section, but in some cases the language is clearly explaining changes in the release that are not duplicated elsewhere, and I think it reads better having them inline alongisde related changes.
2020-06-23 00:55:55 +02:00

invitations on signup via external authentication methods.

models: Migration of UserMessage.id to bigint, part 2. This requires part 1 (which can take hours to run but generally doesn't require downtime) to be completed first. This portion of the migration will require the server to be completely down for a brief period; for chat.zulip.org with 250M UserMessage rows, it took about 60s to run; that time will vary depending on hardware details like whether the server has an SSD, but fundamentally shouldn't be long.

models: Add is_private flag to UserMessage and add index for it. The is_private flag is intended to be set if recipient type is 'private'(1) or 'huddle'(3), otherwise i.e if it is 'stream'(2), it should be unset. This commit adds a database index for the is_private flag (which we'll need to use it). That index is used to reset the flag if it was already set. The already set flags were due to a previous removal of is_me_message flag for which the values were not cleared out. For now, the is_private flag is always 0 since the really hard part of this migration is clearing the unspecified previous state; future commits will fully implement it actually doing something. History: Migration rewritten significantly by tabbott to ensure it runs in only 3 minutes on chat.zulip.org. A key detail in making that work was to ensure that we use the new index for the queries to find rows to update (which currently requires the `order_by` and `limit` clauses).

auth: Fix bug with subdomains and GitHub auth causing apparent logouts. This adds a new settings, SOCIAL_AUTH_SUBDOMAIN, which specifies which domain should be used for GitHub auth and other python-social-auth backends. If one is running a single-realm Zulip server like chat.zulip.org, one doesn't need to use this setting, but for multi-realm servers using social auth, this fixes an annoying bug where the session cookie that python-social-auth sets early in the auth process on the root domain ends up masking the session cookie that would have been used to determine a user is logged in. The end result was that logging in with GitHub on one domain on a multi-realm server like zulipchat.com would appear to log you out from all the others! We fix this by moving python-social-auth to a separate subdomain. Fixes: #9847.

See https://myst-parser.readthedocs.io/en/latest/syntax/optional.html#auto-generated-header-anchors. Note: to be compatible with GitHub, MyST-Parser uses a slightly different convention for .md fragment links than .html fragment links when punctuation is involved. This does not affect the generated fragment links in the HTML output. Fixes #13264. Signed-off-by: Anders Kaseorg <anders@zulip.com>

## Zulip 1.8.x series
Add changelog for 1.8.1 release.
2018-05-03 18:00:03 +02:00
### 1.8.1 -- 2018-05-07
- Added an automated tool (`manage.py register_server`) to sign up for
docs: Reduce the number of apparently broken links on github. - Updated 260+ links from ".html" to ".md" to reduce the number of issues reported about hyperlinks not working when viewing docs on Github. - Removed temporary workaround that suppressed all warnings reported by sphinx build for every link ending in ".html". Details: The recent upgrade to recommonmark==0.5.0 supports auto-converting ".md" links to ".html" so that the resulting HTML output is correct. Notice that links pointing to a heading i.e. "../filename.html#heading", were not updated because recommonmark does not auto-convert them. These links do not generate build warnings and do not cause any issues. However, there are about ~100 such links that might still get misreported as broken links. This will be a follow-up issue. Background: docs: pip upgrade recommonmark and CommonMark #13013 docs: Allow .md links between doc pages #11719 Fixes #11087.

being cached, resulting in trouble logging in after a user was moved
between OUs.
- Fixed a couple subtle bugs with muting.
Release Zulip server 1.8.0.
2018-04-16 22:41:30 +02:00
### 1.8.0 -- 2018-04-17
docs: Simplify reviewing upgrade notes before upgrading. This adds a convenient way to review the upgrade notes for all Zulip releases that one is upgrading across. I thought about moving all the upgrade notes to a common section, but in some cases the language is clearly explaining changes in the release that are not duplicated elsewhere, and I think it reads better having them inline alongisde related changes.

issue where some dependencies fail to install in some locales.
- We fixed a bug in the script that runs after upgrading Zulip (so
the fix applies when upgrading to this version), where the
garbage-collection of old deployments sometimes wouldn't preserve
the immediate last deployment.

2017-10-25 18:09:09 +02:00
- We’ve completely redesigned our onboarding process to explain Zulip,
and especially topics, to new users.
- We’ve built a beautiful new emoji picker with categories, a
showcase, and much better data. Note the clean, underscore-free
display!
- The emails sent by Zulip are more consistent, readable, and visually
interesting.
- Chinese (Simplified) and Japanese join Spanish, German, and Czech in
having the user interface fully translated, in addition to partial
translations for many other languages. We also fixed many small
issues where strings weren’t tagged for translation.
- Many pages have been redesigned to be easier to use and visually
cleaner, including the settings pages and the user documentation at
/help, /integrations, and /apps.

**Mobile and Desktop support**
Release Zulip Server 1.7.0.
2017-10-25 18:09:09 +02:00
- Zulip Server 1.7 adds several new APIs that are critical for mobile
app performance and that let the app track unread messages. If
you’re using the mobile apps at all (iOS or Android), you will
definitely want to upgrade to Zulip 1.7.
- The iOS and Android apps can receive push notifications
(configurable, naturally) for events like PMs and @-mentions. While
Zulip Server 1.6 has basic support for these, 1.7 brings a new,
clearer format to notifications, and gives each user more options
for finer-grained control.
- The new Electron desktop app is out of beta and replaces our legacy
desktop apps.

- Zulip now runs exclusively on Python 3. This is the culmination of
an 18-month migration effort. We are very excited about this!
Release Zulip Server 1.7.0.
2017-10-25 18:09:09 +02:00
- We’ve added an automatic "soft deactivation" process, which
dramatically improves performance for organizations with a large
number of inactive users, without any impact on those users’
experience if they later come back.
- Zulip's performance at scale has improved significantly. Performance
now scales primarily with number of active users (not total
users). As an example, chat.zulip.org serves 400 monthly active
users and about 3500 total users, on one VM with just 8GB of RAM and
a CPU consistently over 90% idle.

Details: The recent upgrade to recommonmark==0.5.0 supports auto-converting ".md" links to ".html" so that the resulting HTML output is correct. Notice that links pointing to a heading i.e. "../filename.html#heading", were not updated because recommonmark does not auto-convert them. These links do not generate build warnings and do not cause any issues. However, there are about ~100 such links that might still get misreported as broken links. This will be a follow-up issue.

docs: Reduce the number of apparently broken links on github. - Updated 260+ links from ".html" to ".md" to reduce the number of issues reported about hyperlinks not working when viewing docs on Github. - Removed temporary workaround that suppressed all warnings reported by sphinx build for every link ending in ".html". Details: The recent upgrade to recommonmark==0.5.0 supports auto-converting ".md" links to ".html" so that the resulting HTML output is correct. Notice that links pointing to a heading i.e. "../filename.html#heading", were not updated because recommonmark does not auto-convert them. These links do not generate build warnings and do not cause any issues. However, there are about ~100 such links that might still get misreported as broken links. This will be a follow-up issue. Background: docs: pip upgrade recommonmark and CommonMark #13013 docs: Allow .md links between doc pages #11719 Fixes #11087.

docs: Simplify reviewing upgrade notes before upgrading. This adds a convenient way to review the upgrade notes for all Zulip releases that one is upgrading across. I thought about moving all the upgrade notes to a common section, but in some cases the language is clearly explaining changes in the release that are not duplicated elsewhere, and I think it reads better having them inline alongisde related changes.
