rank-math-editor-permalink not saving if editor has no publish_posts permissions

    I came across a strange problem with saving permlinks if the author has no publish_posts rights. This happens when you save the draft or set the post as pending for review. I checked on the stable and beta versions, but the result was the same. I also checked other permissions, the same, if the author does not have publish_posts permissions, he cannot save the changed permlink.

    Any ideas?

    Well, I checked the code and it is not relateed with Rank Math, WordPress blocks the permlink update when the user has no publish_posts rights.

    
if ( ! $update && 'pending' === $post_status && ! current_user_can( $post_type_object->cap->z ) ) {
		$post_name = '';
	} elseif ( $update && 'pending' === $post_status && ! current_user_can( 'publish_post', $post_ID ) ) {
		$post_name = '';
	}
