CodePudding user response：

There is such a permission. You can add it to your IAM user (or your admin can do it) in a number of ways. One way is through an inline policy:

{
    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Sid": "VisualEditor0",
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": "rds:DescribeDBEngineVersions",
            "Resource": "*"
        }
    ]
}

The "Resource": "*" must be as is. rds:DescribeDBEngineVersions is a generic permission, not applicable to a specific database.
