[4.2.8] - 2024-02-23
Added
- Add hourly task to automatically require approval for new registrations in the absence of moderators (ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire)
In order to prevent future abandoned Mastodon servers from being used for spam, harassment and other malicious activity, Mastodon will now automatically switch new user registrations to require moderator approval whenever they are left open and no activity (including non-moderation actions from apps) from any logged-in user with permission to access moderation reports has been detected in a full week.
When this happens, users with the permission to change server settings will receive an email notification.
This feature is disabled when
EMAIL_DOMAIN_ALLOWLIST
is used, and can also be disabled withDISABLE_AUTOMATIC_SWITCHING_TO_APPROVED_REGISTRATIONS=true
.
Changed
- Change registrations to be closed by default on new installations (ClearlyClaire)
If you are running a server and never changed your registrations mode from the default, updating will automatically close your registrations.
Simply re-enable them through the administration interface or using
tootctl settings registrations open
if you want to enable them again.
Fixed
- Fix processing of remote ActivityPub actors making use of
Link
objects asImage
url
(ClearlyClaire) - Fix link verifications when page size exceeds 1MB (ClearlyClaire)
[4.2.7] - 2024-02-16
Fixed
- Fix OmniAuth tests and edge cases in error handling (ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire)
- Fix new installs by upgrading to the latest release of the
nsa
gem, instead of a no longer existing commit (mjankowski)
Security
- Fix insufficient checking of remote posts (GHSA-jhrq-qvrm-qr36)
[4.2.6] - 2024-02-14
Security
- Update the
sidekiq-unique-jobs
dependency (see GHSA-cmh9-rx85-xj38) In addition, we have disabled the web interface forsidekiq-unique-jobs
out of caution. If you need it, you can re-enable it by settingENABLE_SIDEKIQ_UNIQUE_JOBS_UI=true
. If you only need to clear all locks, you can now usebundle exec rake sidekiq_unique_jobs:delete_all_locks
. - Update the
nokogiri
dependency (see GHSA-xc9x-jj77-9p9j) - Disable administrative Doorkeeper routes (ThisIsMissEm)
- Fix ongoing streaming sessions not being invalidated when applications get deleted in some cases (GHSA-7w3c-p9j8-mq3x) In some rare cases, the streaming server was not notified of access tokens revocation on application deletion.
- Change external authentication behavior to never reattach a new identity to an existing user by default (GHSA-vm39-j3vx-pch3)
Up until now, Mastodon has allowed new identities from external authentication providers to attach to an existing local user based on their verified e-mail address.
This allowed upgrading users from a database-stored password to an external authentication provider, or move from one authentication provider to another.
However, this behavior may be unexpected, and means that when multiple authentication providers are configured, the overall security would be that of the least secure authentication provider.
For these reasons, this behavior is now locked under the
ALLOW_UNSAFE_AUTH_PROVIDER_REATTACH
environment variable. In addition, regardless of this environment variable, Mastodon will refuse to attach two identities from the same authentication provider to the same account.

[4.2.0] - 2023-09-21
The following changelog entries focus on changes visible to users, administrators, client developers or federated software developers, but there has also been a lot of code modernization, refactoring, and tooling work, in particular by @danielmbrasil, @mjankowski, @nschonni, @renchap, and @takayamaki.
Added
- Add full-text search of opted-in public posts and rework search operators (Gargron, jsgoldstein, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire, jsgoldstein, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, ClearlyClaire, Gargron, Gargron, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire, Gargron, ClearlyClaire, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, ClearlyClaire, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, arbolitoloco1, tribela, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire)
This introduces a new
public_statuses
Elasticsearch index for public posts by users who have opted in to their posts being searchable (toot#indexable
flag). This also revisits the other indexes to provide more useful indexing, and adds new search operators such asfrom:me
,before:2022-11-01
,after:2022-11-01
,during:2022-11-01
,language:fr
,has:poll
, orin:library
(for searching only in posts you have written or interacted with). Results are now ordered chronologically. - Add admin notifications for new Mastodon versions (ClearlyClaire)
This is done by querying
https://api.joinmastodon.org/update-check
every 30 minutes in a background job. That URL can be changed using theUPDATE_CHECK_URL
environment variable, and the feature outright disabled by setting that variable to an empty string (UPDATE_CHECK_URL=
). - Add “Privacy and reach” tab in profile settings (Gargron, ClearlyClaire) This reorganized scattered privacy and reach settings to a single place, as well as improve their wording.
- Add display of out-of-band hashtags in the web interface (Gargron, arbolitoloco1, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire, Gargron, ClearlyClaire)
- Add role badges to the web interface (ClearlyClaire, Gargron)
- Add ability to pick domains to forward reports to using the
forward_to_domains
parameter inPOST /api/v1/reports
(ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire) Theforward_to_domains
REST API parameter is a list of strings. If it is empty or omitted, the previous behavior is maintained. Theforward
parameter still needs to be set forforward_to_domains
to be taken into account. The forwarded-to domains can only include that of the original author and people being replied to. - Add forwarding of reported replies to servers being replied to (Gargron, ClearlyClaire)
- Add
ONE_CLICK_SSO_LOGIN
environment variable to directly link to the Single-Sign On provider if there is only one sign up method available (CSDUMMI, ClearlyClaire, CSDUMMI, ClearlyClaire) - Add webhook templating (Gargron)

- Change user archive export to be faster and more reliable, and export
.zip
archives instead of.tar.gz
ones (ClearlyClaire, TheEssem) - Change
mastodon-streaming
systemd unit files to be templated (e-nomem) - Change
statsd
integration to disable sidekiq metrics by default (mjankowski, mjankowski, ClearlyClaire) This deprecatesstatsd
support and disables the sidekiq integration unlessSTATSD_SIDEKIQ
is set totrue
. This is because thensa
gem is unmaintained, and its sidekiq integration is known to add very significant overhead. Later versions of Mastodon will have other ways to get the same metrics. - Change replica support to native Rails adapter (krainboltgreene, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire)
This is a breaking change, dropping
makara
support, and requiring you to update your database configuration if you are using replicas. To tell Mastodon to use a read replica, you can either set theREPLICA_DB_NAME
environment variable (along withREPLICA_DB_USER
,REPLICA_DB_PASS
,REPLICA_DB_HOST
, andREPLICA_DB_PORT
, if they differ from the primary database), or theREPLICA_DATABASE_URL
environment variable if your configuration is based onDATABASE_URL
