Manage privilege modifications

Summary

The system must not allow system actors to modify privileges for themselves.

Description

Systems should have a set of roles with different levels of privilege to access resources. The privileges of each role must be clearly defined and the role of each user should also be clearly stated. Furthermore, users should not be allowed to modify their own privileges, as this could be leveraged to access otherwise restricted functionalities and resources.
