According to the base system roles documentation provided by ServiceNow, this role is contained in ITIL and Admin so if users have either of those roles, they would be able to read incident/problem/change.

Hi, you can also check\validate the ACL configuration in your instance for a specifc role,
checking ACL's scripts for ocurances of the role and also by checking the ACL 'Access Roles' related list
