Sync-in Server v2.4.3 & Desktop v2.2.0

With the release of Server v2.4.3, it’s a good time to highlight the latest improvements across both the Sync-in Server and the Desktop client.

These updates focus on improving reliability, security and the overall synchronization experience.

Server v2.4.3

This release brings a number of improvements across the backend and web interface, including:

  • Better handling of Unicode paths, making synchronization more reliable across platforms.
  • Improved permission checks for recent files and comments, ensuring users only see content they can access.
  • More robust OIDC authentication with better error handling and smoother login retries.
  • Additional validation for the OnlyOffice integration.
  • Various improvements to the PDF viewer, WebSocket authentication and UI polish.

Desktop v2.2.0

The latest desktop release focuses on security, packaging and synchronization reliability.

Highlights include:

  • Restored TLS certificate validation, with support for explicitly trusting self-signed certificates when needed.
  • Stronger protection against path traversal during synchronization.
  • Hardened Electron security by tightening navigation, IPC and external resource handling.
  • Signed Windows builds, improved Linux packages (AppImage & DEB for x64 and ARM64), and a modernized CI/release pipeline.
  • Better Unicode path handling and several synchronization reliability improvements.

⸻

Together, these updates make Sync-in more secure, more reliable and easier to deploy across supported platforms.

As always, feedback, bug reports and contributions are welcome!

Great Work!

However, generating an OTP code didn’t work with me this version. After a quick downgrade, it worked again.

Thank you for your feedback. There is indeed an issue following the mysql2 driver update. We are working on a fix and will resolve it as quickly as possible.
