3745846 - Maintenance and Manage Security Principals permissions conflict

Symptom

  • Users can add and use any user as a proxy, including portal administrators, even though the Manage Proxy Relations permission is not granted in any assigned portal role.
  • A portal role with Execute maintenance tasks and Manage Security Principals (Administration type) enables proxy management options.
  • With only Maintenance permission, submitting a change in Portal > Maintenance > User ID Update fails with error 403 Forbidden.
  • After adding Manage Security Principals to the same role, the User ID Update succeeds and proxy management capabilities become accessible.
  • The behavior is reproducible across multiple environments.
