* Disallow updating node system information with the `default` system access control.
This provides default authorization for requesting node shutdown.
System information writes can be re-enabled by setting the
`access-control.name` configuration property to `allow-all`, or by configuring
[system information rules](system-file-auth-system_information). ({issue}`17105`)

like updating node system information that covers request of node shutdown is performed on worker. In such cases
