Doc Text:
URLModificationMiddleware resolves named-URL lookups against unfiltered Model.objects before RBAC. The 403→404 shim only rewrites 403 responses, leaving the pk=0 miss path with a different 404 detail string. Differential "Not found." vs "No <Model> matches..." reveals whether a named resource (org, credential, inventory, host) exists anywhere on the platform. Enables cross-tenant internal hostname enumeration.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-08-06 22:50:19 UTC
A flaw was found in automation-controller. The named-URL resolution middleware resolves resource lookups against the unfiltered queryset before RBAC enforcement,
  ▎ and the 403-to-404 shim does not normalize the response body for the pk=0 miss path. An attacker can distinguish "Not found." (resource exists but access 
  ▎ denied) from "No <Model> matches the given query." (resource does not exist), enabling cross-tenant enumeration of organization names, credential names, 
  ▎ inventory names, and hostnames.
