Vaultwarden Build Version

v1.33.2

Deployment method

Official Container Image

Custom deployment method

No response

Reverse Proxy

Traefik 2.11.10

Host/Server Operating System

Linux

Operating System Version

Kubernetes

Clients

Web Vault

Client Version

Web-vault: v2025.1.1, Desktop 2025.2.0, Browser 2024.12.4 (Firefox)

Steps To Reproduce

Create UserA, GroupA, GroupB, CollectionA and ItemA assigned to CollectionA.
Give GroupA readonly permissions for CollectionA.
Give GroupB readwrite permissions for CollectionA.
Add UserA to both groups. (A Member with the user role)
UserA has readwrite access to ItemA.
In the Admin Console, open the edit dialog for GroupA and click save without changing anything.
After a client reload, clients for UserA now only show readonly access to Items in CollectionA. (grayed out fields, etc)

Expected Result

User permissions are consistent regardless which member group was updated/changed most recent.

Actual Result

The most recent updated member group determines the visible permission on the clients.

Logs

Screenshots or Videos

No response

Additional Context

Although the permissions are shown as readonly, clients like the bw cli tool have readwrite access to items in CollectionA.

Also, opening ItemA in edit mode on the browser extension (no fields are modifiable) and clicking save (without making changes), ItemA suddenly appears are readwrite able in the UI of all clients (Webvault, Desktop, browser extension).

Is this a bug in Vaultwarden or on all the Bitwarden clients?
