"The remote host is running Kayako LiveResponse, a web-based live
support system. 

The installed version of Kayako LiveResponse on the remote host fails
to sanitize user-supplied input to many parameters / scripts, which
makes the application vulnerable to SQL injection and cross-site
scripting attacks.  In addition, the application embeds passwords in
plaintext as part of GET requests and will reveal its installation
directory in response to direct calls to several scripts.");
