Edwin,

Just to clarify, 

Considering that MARY is a programmer, MARY can probably
do SBMJOB and
specify USER(BOB)
which could run a program that would make the same change
and have the
same result.  Journals show
BOB made the change, but it was actually MARY.

Mary can only do the above if she has (at least) *USE authority to Bob's
profile.

This typically happens because Mary has *ALLOBJ, or Mary belongs to the
group that owns Bob's profile, or someone specifically gave Mary access
to Bob's profile.  But it is not natural.  The default on profile
creation is *PUBLIC = *EXCLUDE.

Another potential way to achieve the same end (but it only works at
QSECURITY level <40) is for Mary to submit a job using a job description
that has Bob's User name in the  "User" parameter.  in this case Mary
only needs *USE authority to the job description, and no authority to
BOB's user profile.

I also agree that this isn't a "hole".
