Summary
A member with the permission `EDIT_PERMISSIONS` and access to the "Security" section is able to re-assign themselves (or another member) to `ADMIN` level. CMS Fields for the member are constructed using DirectGroups instead of Groups relation which results in bypassing security logic preventing privilege escalation.
