Workflow details 'edit task' permission problem

Hi,

we have been developing our custom workflow in Alfresco and so far everything is quite fine with customization and so. But we happened to stumble on a strange behavior recently. First a user with certain group starts the workflow and a task is assigned to a certain group (pooled). Now all the users in the group in which the task is assigned can see the task in my tasks dashlet and that's ok. Also the task disappears from the my tasks list of the user which started the workflow (initiator) but now if the initiator goes to view his/her completed tasks the user can click "workflow details" and choose "edit task" from current task and is able to proceed in the workflow. I think the same is possible even though the user viewing workflow details wasn't initiator (two users tasks later in the process which are both assigned to different groups). So that's a bit weird as you would think that the tasks were restricted to certain group of users. Why is it implemented that way and how could the behavior be customized so that only the users that belong to the group the task was assigned to were able to proceed in the task.

Thanks in advance

Sorry about the spam but I wonder why I can't seem to get any replies to my topics. My issues seem quite simple to me (though I don't know how to solve them by myself and yes I've tried). I guess no one has replied to the last three topics I've started (and the issues shouldn't be too difficult for an experienced Alfresco developer). The community used to be really helpful some years ago. Sorry about this but I'm a bit frustrated.
