The Permissions Backup module allows you to backup all permission settings on a per role basis and save it so that it can be imported later either to the same installation or another installation.

Backup of permissions state can be created through Administration » People » Backup permissions page, where users can select role(s) to backup and select specific permissions state only if needed.

The saved/downloaded permission state can be used to recover the permission states on your site to a previous moment in time, or just roll-back changes by enabled or disabled permissions.
