+Version 4.74
+------------
+
+ 1. SECURITY FIX: privilege escalation flaw fixed. On Linux (and only Linux)
+    the flaw permitted the Exim run-time user to cause root to append to
+    arbitrary files of the attacker's choosing, with the content based
+    on content supplied by the attacker.
+
+ 2. Exim now supports loading some lookup types at run-time, using your
+    platform's dlopen() functionality.  This has limited platform support
+    and the intention is not to support every variant, it's limited to
+    dlopen().  This permits the main Exim binary to not be linked against
+    all the libraries needed for all the lookup types.
