Currently forbidden apis accounts for 800+ tasks in the build. These
tasks are aggressively created by the plugin. In forbidden apis 3.0, we
will get task avoidance
(https://github.com/policeman-tools/forbidden-apis/pull/162), but we
need to ourselves use the same task avoidance mechanisms to not trigger
these task creations. This commit does that for our foribdden apis
usages, in preparation for upgrading to 3.0 when it is released.
Guava was removed from Elasticsearch many years ago, but remnants of it
remain due to transitive dependencies. When a dependency pulls guava
into the compile classpath, devs can inadvertently begin using methods
from guava without realizing it. This commit moves guava to a runtime
dependency in the modules that it is needed.
Note that one special case is the html sanitizer in watcher. The third
party dep uses guava in the PolicyFactory class signature. However, only
calling a method on the PolicyFactory actually causes the class to be
loaded, a reference alone does not trigger compilation to look at the
class implementation. There we utilize a MethodHandle for invoking the
relevant method at runtime, where guava will continue to exist.
This change merges the "feature-internal-idp" branch into Elasticsearch.
This introduces a small identity-provider plugin as a child of the x-pack module.
This allows ES to act as a SAML IdP, for users who are authenticated against the
Elasticsearch cluster.
This feature is intended for internal use within Elastic Cloud environments
and is not supported for any other use case. It falls under an enterprise license tier.
The IdP is disabled by default.
