Symptoms

If a user is logged into the GUI, and that user's account has a role added through TMSH, the user is not logged out of the GUI. Other actions result in the user being logged out the GUI, as expected. All changes to the user's account in the GUI will log out the edited user.

Impact

User is not logged out of the GUI for the "add role" action. No real impact is recorded on the user's experience or on the security of the GUI.

Conditions
