Fast user switching between users and roles directly from the admin bar - switch from a list or search for users/roles by id, username, email, etc. — by Tikweb Management

What to do

  1. There is no fixed version yet. If you can live without Fast User Switching for now, deactivate it and delete it until the developer ships a fix.
  2. If you must keep it, limit who can log in (remove unused accounts, especially low-level ones) and put a web application firewall in front of the site.
  3. Watch for an update: get an email when this page changes.
  4. If you ran a vulnerable version and something looks off (spam pages, strange admins, redirects), run the free scan, or have us clean it: Emergency Cleanup, $499.

With WP-CLI: wp plugin get fast-user-switching --field=version shows what you run; wp plugin update fast-user-switching updates it.
