Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old information disclosure issue in Kayako SupportSuite. Certain public-facing module parameters could make the application reveal its server filesystem path. That usually does not compromise data by itself, but it can help attackers understand hosting layout and prepare follow-on attacks. Exposure is most likely in legacy Kayako SupportSuite 3.00.26 or earlier installations, especially internet-facing support portals with news, downloads, or knowledgebase modules enabled. Low immediate urgency unless a legacy Kayako portal is still exposed. Treat this as cleanup and hardening work: confirm whether the product exists in the estate, suppress path-revealing errors, and retire or update unsupported systems. Mitigation focus: Inventory any Kayako SupportSuite deployments and confirm exact versions.; Check Kayako or successor vendor guidance for an upgrade or supported remediation.; Disable or restrict exposed affected modules if upgrade guidance is unavailable..
