## Overview

The Content Egg  WordPress plugin before 11.9.0 does not verify that a user running its bulk content-import feature is authorized for the import preset they select, and switches to the preset author's identity before creating the resulting post, allowing users with contributor-level access and above to store arbitrary web scripts unfiltered under a privileged user's account, executing in the context of anyone who later views that content.

## Remediation
