Security hole in metada insert

Description

You can replace any metadata with your own.

To reproduce:

User A in group A, user B in group B. They can be either Editor or Content Reviewer.

User A creates a metadata with UUID X. User B creates, or obtains a metadata with the same UUID X and inserts it, with the option 'Overwrite metadata with same UUID'.

The result is that the metadata created by user A is replaced by the one of user B, irrespective of the privileges.
