Reporting a vulnerability. Security problems in the plugin’s own code belong to the vendor, keywordrush.com; report them there. Problems with a package as this repository distributes it — a file that should not be there, a scan that missed something — go to packages@meteorgpl.com, and are answered within 48 hours.
What happens on a finding. The affected versions are withdrawn from the repository, watchers of the package are notified, and a corrected version is published when one passes every check.

Known vulnerabilities
Public vulnerability reports for Content Egg Pro, the versions they affect and the version in this repository that fixes them. Watchers and accounts known to run an affected version are alerted.
The Content Egg – Affiliate Product Importer & Price Comparison plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 12.0.0 This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to create posts attributed to another user's account — typically an administrator — by supplying an admin-owned preset_id, causing wp_insert_post to record the administrator as post_author. This includes the ability to create published posts when the attacker already holds publish_posts capability for the preset's post type, resulting in administrator-attributed published content created by a lower-privileged user.
Remediation: Update to version 12.1.0, or a newer patched version
The Content Egg plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing per-post capability check on the ajaxUpdateProducts() function in versions up to, and including, 12.0.0. The handler verifies a static nonce ('contentegg_metabox') and the generic 'edit_posts' capability, but trusts the attacker-supplied $_POST['post_id'] verbatim and never calls current_user_can('edit_post', $post_id) — the per-object check that its sibling save_post handler saveMeta() correctly performs. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to modify Content Egg product data (_cegg_data_*) and update-timestamp post meta on arbitrary posts, including those owned by administrators.
Remediation: Update to version 12.1.0, or a newer patched version
The Content Egg plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in all versions up to, and including, 11.8.0. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
Remediation: Update to version 11.9.0, or a newer patched version
CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation
The Content Egg – Affiliate Product Importer & Price Comparison plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 6.3.1. This is due to deserialization of untrusted input. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with shop manager-level access and above, to inject a PHP Object. No known POP chain is present in the vulnerable software. If a POP chain is present via an additional plugin or theme installed on the target system, it could allow the attacker to delete arbitrary files, retrieve sensitive data, or execute code.
Remediation: Update to version 11.9.0, or a newer patched version
The Content Egg – Affiliate Product Importer & Price Comparison plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Deletion via Path Traversal in versions up to and including 11.3.0. This is due to insufficient validation of the 'img_file' field within the cegg_data post metadata: the value passes only through wp_strip_all_tags() (which does not strip path traversal sequences), is stored directly in post meta, and is later concatenated without normalization into a filesystem path in getFullImgPath() before being passed to PHP's unlink(). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to delete arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.
Remediation: Update to version 11.4.0, or a newer patched version
CWE-22: Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory
The Content Egg plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in versions up to, and including, 7.0.0 via deserialization of untrusted input. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with editor-level access and above, to inject a PHP Object. No known POP chain is present in the vulnerable software. If a POP chain is present via an additional plugin or theme installed on the target system, it could allow the attacker to delete arbitrary files, retrieve sensitive data, or execute code.
Remediation: Update to version 8.0.0, or a newer patched version
The Content Egg plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 5.4.0. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on one of its functions. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to invoke that function, via forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
Remediation: Update to version 5.5.0, or a newer patched version
The Content Egg WordPress plugin before 5.3.0 does not sanitise and escape the page parameter before outputting back in an attribute in the Autoblogging admin dashboard, leading to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting
Remediation: Update to version 5.3.0, or a newer patched version
