Synapse is an open-source Matrix homeserver written and maintained by the
Matrix.org Foundation. Prior to version 1.94.0, a malicious server ACL
event can impact performance temporarily or permanently leading to a
persistent denial of service. Homeservers running on a closed federation
(which presumably do not need to use server ACLs) are not affected. Server
administrators are advised to upgrade to Synapse 1.94.0 or later. As a
workaround, rooms with malicious server ACL events can be purged and
blocked using the admin API.
