Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) on Admin’s Switch User Operation

Mist Community Edition (CE) before v4.7.2 fails to implement Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) protection for the administrator user-switching functionality ("/su" endpoint). This allows attackers to force administrators into making unintended changes to their accounts, such as changing their email address to that of the attacker.
