More specifically Severus's chamber. One part of his riddle read:
One among us seven will let you move ahead,
If the whole point of guarding something, is so someone couldn't get it, why let or give someone the chance to advance, to get the object? It doesn't make sense does it? Why give someone the chance to get the object?
You may say, "So that the teachers (or Dumbledore) can retrieve it when needed."
However if the teachers made the chambers, they would create it in such a way, that only them (or any other selected people) could get past it.
OR
They would create it in such a way, that they could "hack" it, and pass the information to selected people.
Other chambers include Filius's, and Minerva's. (The flying keys, and the chessboard) These both give someone the chance to let someone pass.
Answer
It is Dumbledore that have planed this all the way.
He is the one that ask specific teachers to put there own "trap" in each of the chambers. He chose the teachers in this specific way because he knew that Harry, Hermione and Ron all together could break the spells and traps of all the room.
And the last "trap" or spell and non the less, The Dumbledore spell to be able to obtain the stone.
"It was one of my more brilliant ideas, and between you and me, that's saying something. You see, only one who wanted to find the Stone--find it, but not use it--would be able to get it, otherwise they'd just see themselves making gold or drinking Elixir of Life. My brain surprises even me sometimes..." -- Albus Dumbledore
The chambers would let people pass but not anyone, so he knew that all these traps could be unlocked by the cooperation of Harry and his 2 friends, even before they've met each others.
So if someone other than these 3 students were to pass, at the end, no one but Harry could get their hands on the Philosopher's stone.
