Description

The check to include related changesets in the single issue API view currently is done against the project of the issue.

An issue can have related changesets from other projects, where the current user might not have the permission to see changesets. This leads to changeset messages being leaked to users without the permission to see those.

The attached patch (created by Felix Schäfer) uses the changesets passed by the controller instead of reimplementing logic in the view, thus sharing the same logic as the html view.

Thanks for reporting this. The fix is committed in r14794.
The :repositories fixtures were missing in the test, and adding them made the test fail (the user used in the test had actually access to the changeset).
