+- Renaming or removing keywords will not update the "keyword

+- Email notifications will not work out of the box if you are

+  line option, which needs to be supported by the sendmail

-Bugs referenced in the following text are bug numbers on
-bugzilla.mozilla.org.
+The 2.14.1 release fixes several security issues that became
+known to us after the Bugzilla 2.14 release.
+
+*** SECURITY ISSUES RESOLVED ***
+
+- If LDAP Authentication was being used, Bugzilla would allow
+  you to log in as anyone if you left the password blank.
+  (bug 54901)
+
+- It was possible to add comments or file a bug as someone else
+  by editing the HTML on the appropriate submission page before
+  submitting the form.  User identity is checked now, and the
+  form values suggesting the user are now ignored.
+  (bug 108385, 108516)
+
+- The Product popup menu on the show_bug form listed all
+  products, even if the user didn't have access to all of them.
+  It now only shows products the user has access to (and the
+  product the bug is in, if the user is viewing it because of
+  some other override).
+  (bug 102141)
+
+- If a user had any blessgroupset privileges (the ability to
+  change only specific privileges for other users), it was
+  possible to change your own groupset (privileges) by
+  altering the page HTML before submitting on editusers.cgi.
+  (bug 108821)
+
+- An untrusted variable was echoed back to user in the HTML
+  output if there was a login error while editing votes.
+  (bug 98146)
+
+- buglist.cgi had an undocumented parameter that allowed you
+  to pass arbitrary SQL for the "WHERE" part of a query.
+  This has been disabled. (bug 108812)
+
+- It was possible for a user to send arbitrary SQL by inserting
+  single quotes in the "mybugslink" field in the user
+  preferences. (bug 108822)
+
+- buglist.cgi was not validating that the field names being
+  passed from the "boolean chart" query form were valid field
+  names, thus allowing arbitrary SQL to be inserted if you 
+  edited the HTML by hand before submitting the form.
+  (bug 109679)
+
+- long_list.cgi was not validating that the bug ID parameter
+  was actually a number, allowing arbitrary SQL to be inserted
+  if you edited the HTML by hand. (bug 109690)
