As far as I can tell, there is already a REST API that can be used to enable and disable Jenkins jobs.

When I open the "REST API" link at the bottom of a Jenkins freestyle job page, it includes:

Disable/Enable a job

To programmatically disable a job, post to this URL. Similarly post to this URL for enabling this job.

As explained in the previous comment, this is not a defect as this functionality already exists.
