How can someone without edit rights, edit a CC Library?

We have shared CC Libraries that our entire org can follow and use. We first create a personal library and then change it to an everyone library when it's done and ready to be shared. I also assign only a 1 or 2 people to have edit rights, but yet somehow someone that has not been granted edit rights appears to be able to make changes. A whole bunch of photos were just mysteriously added to a library that only 2 of us have edit rights to. What is happening????!!! I can't find straight forward answers to this question anywhere.

We have some more information around this and I have a question:

The access control does seem to be working correctly. There is 1 rule that gives users write access to a restricted library in a project. If those users are admins of the project the library is in. Do any of your users fall into that catagory @Cori5C41 ?

We currently only have one “Everyone” project. No members (other than System admins) are designated as admins of libraries or anything else within our admin console.

Hi @Cori5C41 so sorry that this is causing confusion. I am attempting to reach out to the correct teams to get clarity on this issue but this is the story i have straight right now.

the project members (especially in everyone) will have edit access to anything that is in the project. Including libraries.

I am trying to get to the bottom of if this is expected and if so, why do we provide misleading ACL options to users.

@Cori5C41 I have been chatting to all the teams involved with these intricate ACL flows. The expected result of this is that the most open read / write access wins in projects. If a member of the project is invited to a library within that project and they have write access to the project, that will trump restricted access on the library.

There is a bug logged to fix the share sheet interactions so that this is clearer to users. Thank you so much for reporting and helping us make products better!

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
