Security Fixes
--------------
* This release includes a security fix that ensures the global_id value
(a numeric value that should be unique for every authenticated client or
daemon in the cluster) is reclaimed after a network disconnect or ticket
renewal in a secure fashion. Two new health alerts may appear during
the upgrade indicating that there are clients or daemons that are not
yet patched with the appropriate fix.
