Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:

  • You create a management role assignment in a Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 environment.

  • You assign the Exchange Virtual Directories role to a role assignee.

  • You define the scope of the role assignment to an organizational unit.

  • The role assignee tries to run the Update-FileDistributionService command on an Exchange Server 2010 server that is outside the role assignment scope.

In this scenario, the role assignee can unexpectedly run the Update-FileDistributionService command on the server.

Cause

This issue occurs because there is an incorrect Role Based Access Control (RBAC) scope verification when Exchange Server 2010 runs the Update-FileDistributionService command.
