An admin can lock themselves out of JIRA by changing the order of the User Directories.

Details

    Description

      An admin can log into JIRA through an Internal Directory, then add an LDAP directory, and push this LDAP directory up to the top of the directory list.

      If they don't have the required group memberships in the LDAP directory, they may no longer have admin permissions, or even permission to log in.
      You could now be in a position where there are no users in JIRA with admin permission.

      Note that there are already restrictions in place to stop admins from editing an LDAP directory that they are logged in through.
