immich Changes:

v2.7.0

Welcome to Immich v2.7.0!

This release includes enhancements to the asset viewer, security improvements, changes to the duplicate APIs and viewer, and a bunch of bug fixes. Keep reading below for the complete highlights and a note on the upcoming v3.0.0 release.

Known limitations

• The machine learning service on amd64 currently requires the >= x86-64-v2 microarchitecture. This will be patched in an upcoming patch release for backward compatibility with very old processors (before ~2010), but it will become a minimum requirement in 3.0. arm64 is not affected by this change.

Highlights

• Remove from album (asset viewer)
• Move to locked folder (folder page)
• Editor shortcuts
• Create a new face on-the-fly in the face tag editor
• Resolve duplicates
• Helmet configuration
• Version check infrastructure
• Notable fix: live photo and video download in Safari
• Notable fix: escape HTML in the Panorama Photo Viewer

Remove from album

The web has a new action, "Remove from album," available in the asset viewer that makes it easier to remove an asset from an album. This action is available to both album and asset owners.

Move to locked folder in the Folder view

Similarly, the folder view now includes the "Move to locked folder" action.

Editor shortcuts

Users on the web can now edit with keyboard shortcuts. Press e to open the editor. Once in the editor, press [ or ] to rotate the asset +/- 90 degrees. Finally, save any changes and close the editor with ENTER.

Create a new face on-the-fly in the face tag editor

You can now create a new face/person on the fly from the face tagging editor interface

Deduplication improvements

The duplicate screen has gone through a bunch of iterations since it was first introduced all the way back in May, 2024. The latest release moves a bunch of logic from the client to the server, which now automatically suggests which asset to keep based on image size and EXIF data. Additionally, the new server implementation will automatically synchronize metadata, including albums, favorite status, rating, description, visibility, location, and tags. For more information about this process, see the new documentation.

Helmet configuration

You can now opt in to using a Content Security Policy (CSP) in Immich. The new environment variant IMMICH_HELMET_FILE accepts a boolean or a path to a helmet configuration file.

Recommend action: The team recommends setting IMMICH_HELMET_FILE=true to enable the default policy. Then, please let us know if you run into any issues with it.

Background and details

Since Immich is deployed in so many different ways, it has been hard to figure out how to enable a CSP that would not conflict with or break existing installs that might use 3rd party map providers, custom CSS, embed Immich in an iframe, or other such features. In this release, we have added the ability to both opt in to a default policy and configure a custom one. To use the default policy, simply set the environment variable IMMICH_HELMET_FILE=true. To use a custom policy, set the environment variable to a path on disk (within the immich-server) that contains a valid helmet configuration (e.g. IMMICH_HELMET_FILE=/opt/immich/helmet.json). CSP can be used to control what scripts are allowed to run on the page, which domains to load images from, etc. Additionally, it can be used to configure headers for Referrer-Policy, X-Powered-By, X-Frame-Options, and others.

New version check infrastructure

Prior to this release, instances that used the automatic version check feature would send HTTP requests to github.com. Now, we have set up a small service at version.immich.cloud to handle these types of requests. This avoids any privacy implications of connecting to github.com , as well as moves the request load to our own infrastructure.

Notable fix: live photo and video download in Safari

When downloading files in Safari with the same name, it will simply overwrite the file instead of automatically renaming it. In this release, the still and motion parts of a live photo are now named differently to prevent this from happening.

Notable fix: escape HTML in panorama photo viewer

In v2.6.0, we added the ability to show/view clip text in the panorama viewer, but introduced an XSS vulnerability, which has been fixed in this release. Interestingly, this was XSS using text in the image, which would then get read by OCR.

Notable fix: Immich User Agent for external requests

Similar to the mobile app, the server now sends a custom User Agent header. The format for the User Agent is immich-server/{version}. For example, immich-server/2.7.0.

v3.0.0

Just a heads up that this is the likely to be the last release before v3.0.0. Being a major release there will be a handful of breaking changes, although it's worth noting that nothing is currently planned that requires user intervention. It is mainly changes that impact 3rd party developers. More information and details should be available in the coming weeks.
