Summary
JobJobEventsChildrenSummary view has no model/parent_model. ModelAccessPermission.check_get_permissions() falls through (returns True) for any authenticated user.
The view uses raw get_object_or_404(Job, pk) without DRF object-level permission check. Zero-privilege user reads event tree structure, event_processing_finished status, and enumerates Job IDs platform-wide via 200/404 oracle.
Sibling endpoint /jobs/{id}/job_events/ correctly returns 403. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N).
Weakness: CWE-862. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.5 for RHEL 8; Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.5 for RHEL 9; Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.6 for RHEL 9; Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.6; Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.7.
Red Hat fixing advisory: RHSA-2026:71114, RHSA-2026:71113, RHSA-2026:71179, RHSA-2026:71177.
