Environment

  • Liferay DXP 7.3

Resolution

  •  This is the expected behavior because the user is inheriting those permissions from Site Member. 
    However, if you do not want Site Member to be granted permissions by default, you will need to customize the permissions and write customization to revoke already granted permissions to Site Member.
