The console UI exposes a delete action for the super admin user to non-super-admin users — the API blocks the deletion, but the option should not be visible at all. The UI fix belongs in wso2/identity-apps (features/admin.users.v1/components/users-list.tsx); this PR adds backend integration tests to product-is that validate the API-level enforcement.

Changes

  • New: SCIM2SuperAdminProtectionTestCase — two test cases covering the core protection scenarios:

    • testSuperAdminCannotDeleteSelf — super admin attempting self-deletion via SCIM2 receives a 4xx response
    • testNonSuperAdminCannotDeleteSuperAdmin — a user created and added to the admin group cannot delete the super admin; validates the specific backend guard described in the issue
  • testng.xml — registers the new class in the is-tests-scim2 test group

UI fix (identity-apps)

The corresponding console fix requires:

// In resolveTableActions() delete action hidden callback, users-list.tsx
const isSuperAdmin = getUserNameWithoutDomain(user?.userName) === realmConfigs?.adminUser;
const isCurrentUserSuperAdmin = getUserNameWithoutDomain(profileInfo?.userName) === realmConfigs?.adminUser;

if (isSuperAdmin && !isCurrentUserSuperAdmin) {
    return true;  // hide delete option
}

realmConfigs is already declared in the component's props interface but was not being destructured in the component body.

Original prompt

Fix: Hide delete option for super admin user in console UI

Problem Description

Currently, when an admin user (who is not the super admin) logs into the console and navigates to User Management > Users, the delete option is visible for the super admin user. While the API correctly blocks the deletion request, the UI should not show this option at all to prevent user confusion.

Fixes #27728

Expected Behavior

  • Non-super admin users should not see the delete option for the super admin user in the users list
  • The delete action should be conditionally rendered based on whether the target user is the super admin
  • Super admin users should still be able to see their own management options as appropriate

Technical Requirements

  1. Identify the component responsible for rendering the user list with delete options in the console UI
  2. Add logic to check if the current user being displayed is the super admin
  3. Conditionally hide/disable the delete option when the target user is the super admin and the logged-in user is not the super admin
  4. Ensure this change doesn't affect other user management operations
  5. Test that the fix works correctly for:
    • Admin users (non-super admin) viewing the super admin user
    • Super admin viewing other users
    • Admin users viewing other non-super admin users

Version

IS 7.2

Implementation Notes

  • Look for the users list component in the console application (likely in the React/TypeScript frontend)
  • Check for existing user role/permission checks that can be reused
  • Ensure the solution is consistent with how other privileged operations are handled in the UI
  • Consider if similar issues exist for other administrative actions on the super admin user
