The changes made for elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch#2369 showed that the ML security tests were seriously
weakened by the decision to grant many "minimal" privileges to all users
involved in the tests. A better solution is to override the auth header
such that a superuser runs setup actions and assertions that work by
querying raw documents in ways that an end user wouldn't. Then the ML
endpoints can be called with the privileges provided by the ML roles and
nothing else.
Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@4de42d9e54
Implementation details of ML endpoints should be performed using the
internal client, so that the end user only requires permissions for
the public ML endpoints and does not need to know how they are
implemented. This change fixes some instances where this rule was
not adhered to.
Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@01c8f5172c
* Add support for authz checks at on shard requests
* Add Rest Tests for authorization
* Bulk security - Only reject individual items, rather than a whole shard
* Sync with core change
* Grant "delete" priv in ML smoketest
This role had index and+bulk privileges but it also needs delete (in order to delete ML model-snapshots)
Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@830e89e652
In 5.4.x, the datafeed attempts to get all fields from
doc_values by default. It has a `_source` parameter which
when enabled changes the strategy to instead try to get
all fields from the source.
This has been the most common issue users have been
reporting as it means the datafeed will fail to fetch
any text fields by default.
This change uses the field capabilities API in order
to automatically detect whether a field is aggregatable.
It then extracts such fields from doc_values while the
rest are taken from source. The change also adds
validation to the start datafeed action so that if
fields are missing mappings or the time field is not
aggregatable we respond with an appropriate error.

Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@76e2cc6cb2
* Changed ML action names to allow distinguishing of admin and read-only actions
using wildcards
* Added manage_ml and monitor_ml built-in privileges as subsets of the existing
manage and monitor privileges
* Added out-of-the-box machine_learning_admin and machine_learning_user roles
* Changed machine learning results endpoints to use a NodeClient rather than an
InternalClient when searching for results so that index/document level permissions
applied to ML results are respected
