Release notes

  • To remove phone keys from brig's user_keys table an ad hoc data-migration can be run. See PR #4146 which contains the implementation. (#4130)

  • Because the phone column is deleted from Brig's user table in a schema
    migration, temporarily there might be 5xx errors during deployment if Wire
    server 5.4.0 was not deployed previously. To avoid these errors, please deploy
    the Wire server 5.4.0 release first. (#4130)

  • With this release it will be possible to invite personal users to teams. In brig's config, emailSMS.team.tExistingUserInvitationUrl is required to be set to a value that points to the correct teams/account page.
    If emailSMS.team is not defined at all in the current environment, the value of externalUrls.teamSettings (or, if not present, externalUrls.nginz) will be used to construct the correct url, and no configuration change is necessary. (#4229)

  • charts/wire-server: There is a new config value called background-worker.config.enableFederation which defaults to false. This must be kept in sync with tags.federation. (#4243)

  • If you are mapping an email address to the externalId field in the
    scim schema, please check the following list for items that apply to
    you and recommended steps before/during/after upgrade.

    • Situation: the emails field of in your scim user records is
      empty.

      What you need to do: change your schema mapping to contain the
      same address in externalId and (as a record with one element) in
      emails.

    • Situation: the emails field of your scim user records is
      non-empty.

      What you need to do: make sure emails contains exactly one
      entry, which is the email from externalId. If there is a
      discrepancy, the address from emails will become the new
      (unvalidated) address of the user, and the user will receive an
      email to validate it. If the email cannot be sent or is ignored
      by the recipient, the valid address will not be changed. (#4221)

  • A schema migration drops column 'phone' from Brig's 'team_invitation' table. Previous releases were still reading this column. As there is no Team Settings UI action to enter a phone number, this reading will not miss to read actual phone numbers. Therefore, during deployment this will lead to benign 5xx errors. (#4149)

  • Password hashing can now be done using argon2id instead of scrypt. The argon2id parameters can be configured using these options:

    brig:
      optSettings:
        setPasswordHashingOptions:
          algorithm: argon2id
          iterations: ...
          memory: ... # memory needed in KiB
          parallelism: ...
    galley:
      settings:
        passwordHashingOptions:
          algorithm: argon2id
          iterations: ...
          memory: ... # memory needed in KiB
          parallelism: ...

    The default option is still to use scrypt as moving to argon2id might require
    allocating more resources according to configured parameters.

    When configured to use argon2id, the DB will be migrated slowly over time as the
    users enter their passwords (either to login or to do other operations which
    require explicit password entry). This migration is NOT done in reverse,
    i.e., if a deployment started with argon2id as the algorithm then chose to move
    to scrypt, the passwords will not get rehashed automatically, instead the users
    will have to reset their passwords if that is desired.

    NOTE It is highly recommended to move to argon2id as it will be made the
    only available choice for the algorithm config option in future.

    (#4291, #4291)

  • Config value gundeck.config.bulkPush has been removed. This is purely an
    internal change, in case the value was overriden to false, operators might see
    more spiky usage of CPU and memory from gundeck due to bulk processing. (#4290)

API changes

  • A new endpoint POST /teams/invitations/accept allows a non-team user to accept an invitation to join a team (#4229)

  • Services allowlist are blocked by 409 (mls-services-not-allowed) for teams with default protocol MLS. (#4266)

  • The POST /clients and PUT /clients/:cid endpoints support a new capability "consume-notifications" (#4259)

  • New variant in API version 7 of endpoints for creating and listing SCIM tokens that support a name field. New endpoint in version 7 for updating a SCIM token name. (#4307)

  • All the phone number-based functionality is removed from the client API v6 (#4149)

  • The team CSV export endpoint has gained two extra columns: last_active and status. The streaming behaviour has also been improved. (#4293)

  • The changes to the capabilities field of the Client structure, introduced in v6, have now been postponed to v7 (#4179)

  • Finalise version 6 and introduce new development version 7 (#4179, #4179)

  • From API version 7 the GET /mls/public-key and GET /conversations/one2one/:domain/:uid endpoints now take a format query parameter which can be either raw (default, for raw base64-encoded keys) or jwk (for JWK keys) (#4216, #4224)

  • GET /conversations/one2one/:domain/:uid now returns public_keys along with the conversation containing all MLS public keys for the backend which will host this conversation (since v6). (#4224)

  • Remove the ability to set the TTL of a feature flag. Existing TTLs are still retrieved and returned as before. Note that this only applies to the conferenceCalling feature, as none of the others supported TTL anyway. (#4164)

  • Add useSFTForOneToOneCalls as a config option for the Conference Calling feature flag and make its lock status explicit. (#4164)

  • Add endpoint to upgrade a personal user to a team owner (#4251)

Features

  • DB migration for dropping phone column from user table (#4130)

  • A text status field was added to user and user profile (#4155)

  • Allow an existing non-team user to migrate to a team (#4229, #4268, #4315)

  • Makes it impossible for a user to join an MLS conversation while already under legalhold (at least pending)

    This implies two things:

    1. If a user is under legalhold they cannot ever join an MLS conversation, not even an MLS self conversation.
    2. A user has to reject to be put under legalhold when they want to join an MLS conversation (ignoring the request to be put under legalhold is not enough). (#4242)
  • Email template for inviting a personal user to a team added (#4310)

  • Clients can declare to be supporting a capability for consuming notifications (#4259)

  • New endpoint to revoke an OAuth session (#4213)

  • Adds a field which contains a list of all active sessions to each OAuth application in the response of GET /oauth/applications (#4211)

  • SCIM's emails field is now handled and the external ID is not restricted to being an email anymore (#4221)

  • Added human readable names for SCIM tokens (#4307)

  • allow subconversations for MLS 1-1 conversations (#4133)

  • Allow choosing hashing algorithm and configuring argon2id parameters (#4291, #4291)

  • Deny requests for a legalhold device for users who are part of any MLS conversations (#4245)

  • Allow setting of Kubernetes annotations for the coturn Service. (#4189)

  • Add initialConfig setting for the mls feature flag (#4262)

  • Add federationProtocols setting to galley, which can be used to disable the creation of federated conversations with a given protocol (#4278)

  • added open telemetry instrumentation for brig, galley, gundeck and cannon (#3901)

  • Send confirmation email after adding a personal user to a new team (#4253)

  • The SFT and turn usernames returned by /calls/config/v2 are now deterministically computed from the user ID (#4156)

  • Use latest stable RabbitMQ version (3.13.7) and Helm chart (14.6.9). Please
    note that this minor RabbitMQ version upgrade (3.11.x to 3.13.x) may need
    special treatment regarding existing RabbitMQ instances. See
    https://www.rabbitmq.com/docs/upgrade#rabbitmq-version-upgradability . The major
    Helm chart version upgrade may (depending on your setup/values) need attention
    as well: https://github.com/bitnami/charts/tree/main/bitnami/rabbitmq#upgrading (#4227)
