The WP User Switch plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authentication bypass in versions up to, and including, 1.0.2.

This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level permissions and above, to log in as any existing user on the site, such as an administrator, if they have access to the username.
