Hello,
I am writing to you to report a bug in ngircd.
In any give channel, if an user is with mode +a (admin), he/she can
sets mode +/-q(owner) to any other user. This is not inline with the
documentation.
I've looked into the code irc-mode.c, apparently an if block is
missing. Below are the code snippets that I believe fixes the bug.
This patch is what Sarah sent in. Thanks a lot!

ngIRCd - Internet Relay Chat Server
Introduction
ngIRCd is a free, portable and lightweight Internet Relay Chat (IRC)
server for small or private networks, developed under the terms of the GNU
General Public License (GPL); please see the file COPYING for licensing
information.
The server is quite easy to configure and runs as a single-node server or can be part of a network of ngIRCd servers in a LAN or across the internet. It optionally supports the IPv6 protocol, SSL/TLS-protected client-server and server-server links, the Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) system for user authentication, IDENT requests, and character set conversion for legacy clients.
The name ngIRCd stands for next-generation IRC daemon, which is a little bit exaggerated: lightweight Internet Relay Chat server most probably would have been a better name :-)
Please see the INSTALL.md document for installation and upgrade information,
online available here: https://ngircd.barton.de/doc/INSTALL.md!
Status
Development of ngIRCd started back in 2001: The server has been written from scratch in C, tries to follow all relevant standards, and is not based on the forefather, the daemon of the IRCNet.
It is not the goal of ngIRCd to implement all the nasty behaviors of the
original ircd or corner-cases in the RFCs, but to implement most of the useful
commands and semantics that are used by existing clients.
ngIRCd is used as the daemon in real-world in-house and public IRC networks and included in the package repositories of various operating systems.
Features (or: why use ngIRCd?)
- Well arranged (lean) configuration file.
- Simple to build, install, configure, and maintain.
- Supports IPv6 and SSL.
- Can use PAM for user authentication.
- Lots of popular user and channel modes are implemented.
- Supports "cloaking" of users.
- No problems with servers that have dynamic IP addresses.
- Freely available, modern, portable and tidy C source.
- Wide field of supported platforms, including AIX, A/UX, FreeBSD, HP-UX, IRIX, Linux, macOS, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris and Windows with WSL or Cygwin.
