'Changelog' tab not visible for non-admin accounts

[peteeckel]

Deployment Type

Self-hosted

NetBox Version

4.1.0

Python Version

3.12

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a user with view permission for all object types and log in as that user.
2. Open an object detail view for an arbitrary object (e.g. an IPAM IP Address).

Expected Behavior

The 'Changelog' tab should be visible.

Observed Behavior

No 'Changelog' tab is shown.

The issue is in the definition of the ObjectChangeLogView class. The permission that is required according to the class is extras.view_objectchange while it should be core.view_objectchange.

I'll provide a PR if accepted.

In fact there are multiple instances of the same bug:

(netbox) [root@dns netbox]# git grep 'extras\..*_objectchange'
netbox/netbox/views/generic/feature_views.py:        permission='extras.view_objectchange',
netbox/templates/account/profile.html:  {% if perms.extras.view_objectchange %}
netbox/templates/users/user.html:  {% if perms.extras.view_objectchange %}
