 All notable changes to the Zulip desktop app are documented in this file.
 
+### v5.2.0 --2020-05-04
+
+**Security fixes**:
+* CVE-2020-12637: Do not ignore certificate errors in webviews unless the (unsupported, deprecated) `ignoreCerts` option is enabled.
+
+**Fixes**:
+* Avoid opening the file chooser dialog twice when downloading a file.
+
+**New features**:
+* Provide clipboard decryption helper for use in new social login flow.
+
+**Dependencies**:
+* Upgrade all dependencies, including Electron 8.2.5.
+
+### v5.1.0 --2020-04-29
+
+**Fixes**:
+* macOS: If the app is in foreground, the app will no longer hide upon clicking on dock again.
+* Synchronise debian scripts with electron-builder 22.4.1, thus fixing SUID sandbox binary issues.
+* Dock icon on macOS used to be larger than the other applications, which is now updated to the appropriate size.
+* Upon catching error in updating the server icon, the app will log the error and make a sentry report instead of triggering user-facing network error
+
+**New features**:
+* User can now set application language without changing the language on their operating system.
+
+**Dependencies**:
+* Upgrade all dependencies, including Electron 8.2.3.
+
+### v5.0.0 --2020-03-30
+
+**Security fixes**:
+* CVE-2020-10856: Enable Electron context isolation. (Reported by Matt Austin.)
+* CVE-2020-10857: Fix unsafe use of `shell.openExternal`/`shell.openItem`. (Reported by Matt Austin.)
+  * Downloaded files will no longer be opened directly; the previous option to show downloaded files in the file manager is now always on.
+* CVE-2020-10858: Add permission request handler to guard against audio/video recording by a malicious server. (Reported by Matt Austin.)
+
+**New features**:
+* Add an option to prompt for the location to save each downloaded file.
+
+**Fixes**:
+* Fix automatic launching at startup.
+* Fix Undo and Redo functionality on macOS.
+
+**Dependencies**:
+* Upgrade all dependencies, including Electron 8.0.3.
+* Remove `assert`, `cp-file`, `dotenv`, `electron-debug`, and `wurl`.
+
+**Deprecations**:
+* Since Electron upstream has discontinued support for 32-bit Linux, we will only provide 32-bit Linux builds on a best effort basis, and they will likely be removed in a future release.
+
+### v4.0.3 --2020-02-29
+
+**Security fixes**:
+* CVE-2020-9443: Do not disable web security in the Electron webview. (Reported by Matt Austin.)
+
+### v4.0.2-beta --2019-11-13
+
+**New features**:
+* Add support for MSI installers.
+* Show badge count on Linux.
+* Sync system presence info to web app.
+* Add option to open notification settings from the context menu of organization icons in the sidebar. 
+* Tackle network issues with each Zulip organization independently. 
+* Add option to quit on closing the window.
+* Make certificate location dynamic.
+* Add option to specify network settings when adding a new organization.
+
+**Enhancements**:
+* Load last active tab before others, speeding up user experience and eliminating flashing of server icons. 
+* Improve UX for notification settings.
+* Set User-Agent from the main process for communication with the Zulip API.
+* Add SSL troubleshooting guide in error message when adding an organization fails.
+
+**Fixes**:
+* Fix translations for `ru` locales.
+* Fix trailing brackets in settings page. 
+* Fix broken icon issue faced by the snap package on Linux. 
+* Reactivate `network.js` script.
+* Enable notarization for macOS Catalina. 
+
+**Documentation**:
+* Document enterprise configuration features. 
+* Update the Electron tutorial guide. 
+* Explicitly address where to report bugs in `README.md`. 
+* Fix typo in the link to server/webapp repository in `README.md`. 
+* Add documentation for translation.
+
+
