Synapse Outgoing federation to specific hosts can be disabled by sending malicious invites

CVE-2023-32323

What is CVE-2023-32323?

Synapse is an open-source Matrix homeserver written and maintained by the Matrix.org Foundation. A malicious user on a Synapse homeserver X with permission to create certain state events can disable outbound federation from X to an arbitrary homeserver Y. Synapse instances with federation disabled are not affected. In versions of Synapse up to and including 1.73, Synapse did not limit the size of invite_room_state, meaning that it was possible to create an arbitrarily large invite event. Synapse 1.74 refuses to create oversized invite_room_state fields. Server operators should upgrade to Synapse 1.74 or newer urgently.
