The issue described below is experienced on Odoo 12 CE.

The default Administrator, who is created upon DB creation is of type Administrator/Settings. For simplicity we name it User1. User1 creates User2. User1 gives Administrator/Access Rights to User2. Now User2 is able to:

- Delete User 1 ?!?!

- Self promote to Administrator/Settings ?!?!

How can we prevent User2 from both actions above and thus secure User1?

Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

There is no chance to Delete Administrative account in odoo. Odoo does not allow. so don't worry about it
