Getting the API key document form the security index is the most time consuing part
of the API Key authentication flow (>60% if index is local and >90% if index is remote).
This traffic is now avoided by caching added with this PR.
Additionally, we add a cache invalidator registry so that clearing of different caches will
be managed in a single place (requires follow-up PRs).
* Update create-api-keys.asciidoc
* Adding note to create API keys for https
* Adding note for enabling TLS
* Add specific setting for ssl.enabled
* Incorporating review feedback
This PR adds minimum support for prefix search of API Key name. It only touches API key name and leave all other query parameters, e.g. realm name, username unchanged.
Add caching support for application privileges to reduce number of round-trips to security index when building application privilege descriptors.
Privilege retrieving in NativePrivilegeStore is changed to always fetching all privilege documents for a given application. The caching is applied to all places including "get privilege", "has privileges" APIs and CompositeRolesStore (for authentication).
If CI is running tests at exactly 0 or 5 minutes past the hour
the ack-watch docs tests may fail with a 409 error if the ack
test happens to run at the exact time that the schedule watch
is running.
This commit changes the public documentation (and the test) for
the ack to a feb 29th at noon schedule. Test doc or tests do
not really care about the schedule date and this is chosen
since it is a valid date, but one that is extremely unlikely
to cause issues.
Fixes#56164. A minor update in the documentation, API key name is required when creating API key. If the API key name is not provided then the request will fail.
This commit fixes our behavior regarding the responses we
return in various cases for the use of token related APIs.
More concretely:
- In the Get Token API with the `refresh` grant, when an invalid
(already deleted, malformed, unknown) refresh token is used in the
body of the request, we respond with `400` HTTP status code
and an `error_description` header with the message "could not
refresh the requested token".
Previously we would return erroneously return a `401` with "token
malformed" message.
- In the Invalidate Token API, when using an invalid (already
deleted, malformed, unknown) access or refresh token, we respond
with `404` and a body that shows that no tokens were invalidated:
```
{
"invalidated_tokens":0,
"previously_invalidated_tokens":0,
"error_count":0
}
```
The previous behavior would be to erroneously return
a `400` or `401` ( depending on the case ).
- In the Invalidate Token API, when the tokens index doesn't
exist or is closed, we return `400` because we assume this is
a user issue either because they tried to invalidate a token
when there is no tokens index yet ( i.e. no tokens have
been created yet or the tokens index has been deleted ) or the
index is closed.
- In the Invalidate Token API, when the tokens index is
unavailable, we return a `503` status code because
we want to signal to the caller of the API that the token they
tried to invalidate was not invalidated and we can't be sure
if it is still valid or not, and that they should try the request
again.
Resolves: #53323
Role names are now compiled from role templates before role mapping is saved.
This serves as validation for role templates to prevent malformed and invalid scripts
to be persisted, which could later break authentication.
Resolves: #48773
This is useful in cases where the caller of the API needs to know
the name of the realm that consumed the SAML Response and
authenticated the user and this is not self evident (i.e. because
there are many saml realms defined in ES).
Currently, the way to learn the realm name would be to make a
subsequent request to the `_authenticate` API.
The main purpose of this commit is to add a single autoscaling REST
endpoint skeleton, for the purpose of starting to build out the build
and testing infrastructure that will surround it. For example, rather
than commiting a fully-functioning autoscaling API, we introduce here
the skeleton so that we can start wiring up the build and testing
infrastructure, establish security roles/permissions, an so on. This
way, in a forthcoming PR that introduces actual functionality, that PR
will be smaller and have less distractions around that sort of
infrastructure.
This commit creates a new index privilege named `maintenance`.
The privilege grants the following actions: `refresh`, `flush` (also synced-`flush`),
and `force-merge`. Previously the actions were only under the `manage` privilege
which in some situations was too permissive.

This adds a new cluster privilege `monitor_snapshot` which is a restricted
version of `create_snapshot`, granting the same privileges to view
snapshot and repository info and status but not granting the actual
privilege to create a snapshot.

The docs/reference/redirects.asciidoc file stores a list of relocated or
deleted pages for the Elasticsearch Reference documentation.
This prunes several older redirects that are no longer needed and
don't require work to fix broken links in other repositories.
Make clear in the docs that the role mapping APIs is the preferred
way to manage role mappings and that the role mappings that are
defined in files cannot be viewed or managed with the APIs
This change adds documentation for the SAML APIs in Elasticsearch
and adds simple instructions on how these APIs can be used to
authenticate a user with SAML by a custom web application other
than Kibana.
Resolves: #40352
Use case:
User with `create_doc` index privilege will be allowed to only index new documents
either via Index API or Bulk API.
There are two cases that we need to think:
- **User indexing a new document without specifying an Id.**
For this ES auto generates an Id and now ES version 7.5.0 onwards defaults to `op_type` `create` we just need to authorize on the `op_type`.
- **User indexing a new document with an Id.**
This is problematic as we do not know whether a document with Id exists or not.
If the `op_type` is `create` then we can assume the user is trying to add a document, if it exists it is going to throw an error from the index engine.
Given these both cases, we can safely authorize based on the `op_type` value. If the value is `create` then the user with `create_doc` privilege is authorized to index new documents.
In the `AuthorizationService` when authorizing a bulk request, we check the implied action.
This code changes that to append the `:op_type/index` or `:op_type/create`
to indicate the implied index action.
This commit adds support to retrieve all API keys if the authenticated
user is authorized to do so.
This removes the restriction of specifying one of the
parameters (like id, name, username and/or realm name)
when the `owner` is set to `false`.
Closes#46887
This commit adds the documentation to point the user that when one
creates API keys with no role descriptor specified then that API
key will have a point in time snapshot of user permissions.
Closes#46876
