User Management - admin account to only add users with view rights
Hello, I am looking for a solution to create a user account for MariaDB that is only able to create and manage users that are allowed to get data from the database without altering it. The biggest problem that I am seeing is that in order to do proper user management, the user must be able to alter the user table and could create a user that is able to do anything. Maybe there is a solution for that and I haven't come up with it.

The GRANT OPTION privilege permits the granting of privileges that the user has, so to do what you want to do would probably require a custom solution.
