Issue

Restricted admin users can get access to the new resources when new modules are added.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Create a new admin user role with restricted resources.
  2. Create a new admin user under the role created in step one.
  3. Install and enable the custom module that creates a new set of menu items along with ACL resources.
  4. Log in using the newly created admin user.

Expected results:

The admin user with restricted access is unable to access the newly created menu items.

Actual results:

The restricted admin user is able to access the new menu items, even though the new resources are not assigned to the user role.
