Description
The WP User Switch plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.0. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a users permissions before allowing them to switch to another user. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to gain access to higher privileged user accounts.
