6.2.2

This is a patch release to address a security issue on the file upload custom field. We highly recommend to update to the v6.2.2 as soon as possible for websites matching all of the following conditions:
* The Enterprise edition of AcyMailing is used
* The version 6.2.0 or 6.2.1 is used
* A “File” custom field is created and visible for the users in a front-end subscription form (the widget)
* An other custom field other than a “File” field must be displayed on the form, in addition to the “Name”, “Email” and “File” fields
If your website doesn’t match one of these conditions it is not concerned by the security issue, but we still recommend you to keep AcyMailing updated when a new version is available.
