DESCRIPTION:
A security issue has been reported in the Subuser module for Drupal,
which can be exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security
restrictions.
The security issue is caused due to the application not properly
verifying access restrictions when switching a parent's security
context to a subuser. This can be exploited to assume the role of an
otherwise restricted subuser.
The security issue is reported in versions prior to 6.x-1.8.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 6.x-1.8.
