This commit removes Kerberos bootstrap checks as they were more
validation checks and better done in Kerberos realm constructor
than as bootstrap checks. This also moves the check
for one Kerberos realm per node to where we initialize realms.
This commit adds few validations which were missing earlier
like missing read permissions on keytab file or if it is directory
to throw exception with error message.
The default behaviour for "GetPrivileges" is to get all application
privileges. This should only be allowed if the user has access to
the "*" application.
In #29623 we added `Request` object flavored requests to the low level
REST client and in #30315 we deprecated the old `performRequest`s. This
changes all calls in the `x-pack/plugin/security` project to use the new
versions.

The main highlight is the removal of the reclaim_deletes_weight in the TieredMergePolicy.
The es setting index.merge.policy.reclaim_deletes_weight is deprecated in this commit and the value is ignored. The new merge policy setting setDeletesPctAllowed should be added in a follow up.
This commit avoids dependency during compile on copy keytab to
be present in the generated sources so pre-commit does not
stall for updating vagrant box.

Previously we had two patterns for naming of strict
and lenient parsers.
Some classes had CONFIG_PARSER and METADATA_PARSER,
and used an enum to pass the parser type to nested
parsers.
Other classes had STRICT_PARSER and LENIENT_PARSER
and used ternary operators to pass the parser type
to nested parsers.
This change makes all ML classes use the second of
the patterns described above.
Removing some dead code or supressing warnings where apropriate. Most of the
time the variable tested for null is dereferenced earlier or never used before.
Today we allow plugins to add index store implementations yet we are not
doing this in our new way of managing plugins as pull versus push. That
is, today we still allow plugins to push index store providers via an on
index module call where they can turn around and add an index
store. Aside from being inconsistent with how we manage plugins today
where we would look to pull such implementations from plugins at node
creation time, it also means that we do not know at a top-level (for
example, in the indices service) which index stores are available. This
commit addresses this by adding a dedicated plugin type for index store
plugins, removing the index module hook for adding index stores, and by
aggregating these into the top-level of the indices service.
Java 11 uses more verbose exceptions messages, causing this assertion
to fail. Changed the test to be less restrictive and only look
for the classes we care about.
This commit reverts to the pre-6.3 way of merging automata as the
change in 6.3 significantly impacts the performance for roles with a
large number of concrete indices. In addition, the maximum number of
states for security automata has been increased to 100,000 in order
to allow users to use roles that caused problems pre-6.3 and 6.3 fixed.
As an escape hatch, the maximum number of states is configurable with
a setting so that users with complex patterns in roles can increase
the states with the knowledge that there is more memory usage.
* Introduce fips_mode setting and associated checks
Introduce xpack.security.fips_mode.enabled setting ( default false)
When it is set to true, a number of Bootstrap checks are performed:
- Check that Secure Settings are of the latest version (3)
- Check that no JKS keystores are configured
- Check that compliant algorithms ( PBKDF2 family ) are used for
password hashing
In the HL REST client we replace the License object with a string, because of
complexity of this class. It is also not really needed on the client side since
end-users are not interacting with the license besides passing it as a string
to the server.

This commit introduces "Application Privileges" to the X-Pack security
model.
Application Privileges are managed within Elasticsearch, and can be
tested with the _has_privileges API, but do not grant access to any
actions or resources within Elasticsearch. Their purpose is to allow
applications outside of Elasticsearch to represent and store their own
privileges model within Elasticsearch roles.
Access to manage application privileges is handled in a new way that
grants permission to specific application names only. This lays the
foundation for more OLS on cluster privileges, which is implemented by
allowing a cluster permission to inspect not just the action being
executed, but also the request to which the action is applied.
To support this, a "conditional cluster privilege" is introduced, which
is like the existing cluster privilege, except that it has a Predicate
over the request as well as over the action name.
Specifically, this adds
- GET/PUT/DELETE actions for defining application level privileges
- application privileges in role definitions
- application privileges in the has_privileges API
- changes to the cluster permission class to support checking of request
objects
- a new "global" element on role definition to provide cluster object
level security (only for manage application privileges)
- changes to `kibana_user`, `kibana_dashboard_only_user` and
`kibana_system` roles to use and manage application privileges

This bundles the x-pack:protocol project into the x-pack:plugin:core
project because we'd like folks to consider it an implementation detail
of our build rather than a separate artifact to be managed and depended
on. It is now bundled into both x-pack:plugin:core and
client:rest-high-level. To make this work I had to fix a few things.
Firstly, I had to make PluginBuildPlugin work with the shadow plugin.
In that case we have to bundle only the `shadow` dependencies and the
shadow jar.
Secondly, every reference to x-pack:plugin:core has to use the `shadow`
configuration. Without that the reference is missing all of the
un-shadowed dependencies. I tried to make it so that applying the shadow
plugin automatically redefines the `default` configuration to mirror the
`shadow` configuration which would allow us to use bare project references
to the x-pack:plugin:core project but I couldn't make it work. It'd *look*
like it works but then fail for transitive dependencies anyway. I think
it is still a good thing to do but I don't have the willpower to do it
now.
Finally, I had to fix an issue where Eclipse and IntelliJ didn't properly
reference shadowed transitive dependencies. Neither IDE supports shadowing
natively so they have to reference the shadowed projects. We fix this by
detecting `shadow` dependencies when in "Intellij mode" or "Eclipse mode"
and adding `runtime` dependencies to the same target. This convinces
IntelliJ and Eclipse to play nice.
This commit adds support for Kerberos authentication with a platinum
license. Kerberos authentication support relies on SPNEGO, which is
triggered by challenging clients with a 401 response with the
`WWW-Authenticate: Negotiate` header. A SPNEGO client will then provide
a Kerberos ticket in the `Authorization` header. The tickets are
validated using Java's built-in GSS support. The JVM uses a vm wide
configuration for Kerberos, so there can be only one Kerberos realm.
This is enforced by a bootstrap check that also enforces the existence
of the keytab file.
In many cases a fallback authentication mechanism is needed when SPNEGO
authentication is not available. In order to support this, the
DefaultAuthenticationFailureHandler now takes a list of failure response
headers. For example, one realm can provide a
`WWW-Authenticate: Negotiate` header as its default and another could
provide `WWW-Authenticate: Basic` to indicate to the client that basic
authentication can be used in place of SPNEGO.
In order to test Kerberos, unit tests are run against an in-memory KDC
that is backed by an in-memory ldap server. A QA project has also been
added to test against an actual KDC, which is provided by the krb5kdc
fixture.

* Complete changes for running IT in a fips JVM
- Mute :x-pack:qa:sql:security:ssl:integTest as it
cannot run in FIPS 140 JVM until the SQL CLI supports key/cert.
- Set default JVM keystore/truststore password in top level build
script for all integTest tasks in a FIPS 140 JVM
- Changed top level x-pack build script to use keys and certificates
for trust/key material when spinning up clusters for IT
Adds a new single-value metrics aggregation that computes the weighted
average of numeric values that are extracted from the aggregated
documents. These values can be extracted from specific numeric
fields in the documents.
When calculating a regular average, each datapoint has an equal "weight"; it
contributes equally to the final value. In contrast, weighted averages
scale each datapoint differently. The amount that each datapoint contributes
to the final value is extracted from the document, or provided by a script.
As a formula, a weighted average is the `∑(value * weight) / ∑(weight)`
A regular average can be thought of as a weighted average where every value has
an implicit weight of `1`.

In #29623 we added `Request` object flavored requests to the low level

The notion of "quality" is an overloaded term in the search ranking evaluation
context. Its usually used to decribe certain levels of "good" vs. "bad" of a
seach result with respect to the users information need. We currently report the
result of the ranking evaluation as `quality_level` which is a bit missleading.
This changes the response parameter name to `metric_score` which fits better.

* Remove BouncyCastle dependency from runtime
This commit introduces a new gradle project that contains
the classes that have a dependency on BouncyCastle. For
the default distribution, It builds a jar from those and
in puts it in a subdirectory of lib
(/tools/security-cli) along with the BouncyCastle jars.
This directory is then passed in the
ES_ADDITIONAL_CLASSPATH_DIRECTORIES of the CLI tools
that use these classes.
BouncyCastle is removed as a runtime dependency (remains
as a compileOnly one) from x-pack core and x-pack security.
The initial decision to use async durability was made a long time ago
for performance reasons. That argument no longer applies and we
prefer the safety of request durability.
Resolving wildcards in aliases expression is challenging as we may end
up with no aliases to replace the original expression with, but if we
replace with an empty array that means _all which is quite the opposite.
Now that we support and serialize the original requested aliases,
whenever aliases are replaced we will be able to know what was
initially requested. `MetaData#findAliases` can then be updated to not
return anything in case it gets empty aliases, but the original aliases
were not empty. That means that empty aliases are interpreted as _all
only if they were originally requested that way.

Prior to 6.3 a trial license default to security enabled. Since 6.3
they default to security disabled. If a cluster is upgraded from <6.3
to >6.3, then we detect this and mimic the old behaviour with respect
to security.
Now write operations like Index, Delete, Update rely on the write-index associated with
an alias to operate against. This means writes will be accepted even when an alias points to multiple indices, so long as one is the write index. Routing values will be used from the AliasMetaData for the alias in the write-index. All read operations are left untouched.
