v0.14.36
This is an unscheduled release to fix a bug that slipped through the cracks in 0.14.34 & 0.14.35.
Resolved issues:
#4297: Folders paths are no longer reset when editing a folder without a label
v0.14.35
This is an unscheduled release in panic mode to fix a significant problem in 0.14.34.
Resolved issues in 0.14.35:
#4288: Symlinks are deleted from versioned folders on startup
Resolved issues in 0.14.34:
#2157: The new folder dialog now suggests a default path. Adjustable via advanced config defaultFolderPath.
#4272: The build script no longer sets -installsuffix by default.
#4286: Prevents a vulnerability that allows file overwrite via versioned symlinks
Note that the last issue is a security vulnerability. Symlinks on Windows are not supported and have not been created by Syncthing for a while. Nonetheless, if you use symlinks on Windows and Syncthing versioning you may have symlinks in your versioning directory from earlier versions. You must remove these manually. Syncthing can not remove them automatically because there are other things that look to us like symlinks but are not - deduplicated files, primarily. (This is one of the reasons symlinks are not supported on Windows.)
On other platforms the versioning directory is cleaned from symlinks as part of the upgrade.

Updating during the freeze since the previous version stopped
working for me since the availability of this version.
Changes:
This is an extra bugfix release to fix issues introduced in v0.14.14.
Resolved issues:
#3829: Receiving 'invalid subpath' errors on syncthing-inotify full folder sync trigger
This is an extra bugfix release to fix issues discovered in the upgrade from 0.14.13 to 0.14.14.
Resolved issues:
#3804: Inotify no longer triggers "invalid subpath" error
#3802: Symlinks are not deleted on upgrade
This is a security release recommended for all users.
Two distinct security vulnerabilities have been corrected in this
release. Either would let a remote attacker, controlling a device
that is already accepted by Syncthing, perform arbitrary reads and
writes to files outside the configured folders.
The first issue is that path validation was lacking in several
places, resulting in Syncthing accepting index entries for files
like "../../foo", thus resulting in a path above the configured
folder.
The second issue is that where path validation was correct, symlinks
could be used to trick Syncthing. An attacker could create a symlink
"foo -> ../../" and then request the contents of "foo/something",
again escaping the constraints of the folder.
Syncing symlinks between v0.14.14 and previous versions will not
work.
This is due to the fix to the above issue. Normal files and
directories will sync fine. To continue syncing symlinks, both
sides must be upgraded to v0.14.14.
Further resolved issues:
#3753: The build no longer requires Go 1.7.
#3769: The wording in the GUI around "last file received" is
now clearer.
v0.14.131
This is a minor release recommended for all users.
Resolved issues:
#33946: CPU usage when scanning is improved.
#24722: Writing config and .stignore files on filesystems
without chmod support should now work.
#3758: Language selector stays above the bottom bar.
This is a minor release recommended for all users.
Resolved issues:
#3737: A data race in the code that caused test failures, and possibly other inconsitencies, has been resolved.
#3241: Links in warning messages are now clickable in the GUI.
#3711: Files are now synced to disk before committed to database, to avoid possible inconsistencies if a power failure occurs during syncing.
#3724: Log entries now mention folder by label in addition to the ID.
In addition:
The default folder now has the folder ID "default" again, simplifying initial setup.
Retries for misconfigured relay setups are slowed down somewhat to be kinder on our relay pool infrastructure.
This is a minor release recommended for all users.
Resolved issues
#1015: Introducers can now remove devices that they introduced
#3726: Syncthing now correctly reconnects to staticly configured relays

v0.14.9
Resolved issues:
#3651: Documentation PDFs are fixed.
#3638: German localisation is improved. (As are a couple of others as I forgot to update them the last release.)
#3619: Browser error on first startup doesn't happen as easily anymore.
#3664: Syncthing compiles in Go versions older than 1.7 again.
#3577: Adding folder using Long UNC path no longer causes stack overflow (but don't do that, it's not necessary).
v0.14.8
This is a minor release recommended for all users.
The main change here is to handle issues with the new SHA256 implementation introduced in 0.14.7. When using the monitor process (which is the default) crashes will be detected and the new hashing package disabled. A manual selection can also be forced by setting the environment variable STHASHING to either minio (the new package) or standard (the default Go package).
Resolved issues:
#3613: The monitor process now detects crashes due to the new hashing package and disables it on subsequent launch.
#3614: The two hash packages are benchmarked on startup and the fastest on is selected.
#3588: Folders are now correctly shown as out of sync when they miss only deleted files.
#3578: UPnP handling is corrected in the case where more than one router is detected.
#3639: Patterns with terminal slash (e.g., "dir/") now correctly ignore directory contents.
v0.14.7
This is a minor release recommended for all users.
Improvements in this release include faster (i.e., less CPU intensive)
hashing on some Intel and ARM64 CPU:s, a more refined dark theme,
CORS headers in the API, and an updated set of default discovery
servers.
Resolved issues since v0.14.6:
#3596: Deadlock no longer occurs on device removal
This is a minor release recommended for all users.
Resolved issues since v0.14.5:
#3496: In sync percentages no longer go negative for large numbers of deleted files.
#3502: Files that were deleted and then ignored are no longer deleted on other devices that didn't ignore them.
#3525: Configuration is no longer moved away when perfoming an upgrade on a full disk.
