STEPS
-----------------------
The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:
1) Create an outer folder with 2 users that had at least RWD to Security Group and RWDA to ACL
2) Create an inner folder with the same two users
3) If I tried to propagate the outer folder's
A) ACL --> error "User [USERNAME] does not have admin privilege to propagate ACL to subfolder FOLDERNAME[[[FOLDERGUID]]]." in a pop up.
B) Expiration Date --> No issue
NOTE: I didn't need to make any changes to the folders, add content or anything else. Just trying to propagate the ACL was enough to trigger the error.

BUSINESS IMPACT
-----------------------
The issue has the following business impact:
Due to this issue, admin users cannot propagate.
