Bug Description
Step to reproduce :
- Create a new user with users-admin
- Be sure that all user-privilege are uncheck
- Logout and login with this new user
- Look at system>admin, you are able to use
networks-admin, users-admin, share-admin.
I don't think that an non admin user should be able to use those
tool, but why not.
- More important, launch users-admin and try to
change the password of an admin user. That works.
I think that the user privilege setting is broken. At least
the 'Administer the system' one (others seems to work).
It remove some privilege, but not all.
Thanks.
