Title
Gravity SMTP <= 2.1.4 - Missing Authorization to Authenticated (Subscriber+) Plugin Uninstall

The Gravity SMTP plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in versions up to, and including, 2.1.4. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action.
