DESCRIPTION:
Christian Landström has reported a security issue in pcwRunAs, which
can be exploited by malicious, local users to gain escalated
privileges.
The security issue is caused due to the application insecurely
encrypting the contents of script files and can be exploited to
decrypt the scripts and disclose other user's credentials.
The security issue is reported in version 0.3 and 0.4. Other versions
may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Restrict access to trusted users only.
