Important Security Update 

We strongly recommend all customers upgrade to 4.74.2, as it includes an important security update. An issue was found which would allow an attacker to hijack a user's session on the server where Kayako is installed. This vulnerability was responsibly disclosed to us by a Kayako customer and there is no known exploit of this problem in the wild. To make it easier to protect yourself, we have included patches for the previous two releases.
