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 PR moves the majority of the Watcher REST tests under
the Watcher x-pack plugin.
Specifically, moves the Watcher tests from:
x-pack/plugin/test
x-pack/qa/smoke-test-watcher
x-pack/qa/smoke-test-watcher-with-security
x-pack/qa/smoke-test-monitoring-with-watcher
to:
x-pack/plugin/watcher/qa/rest (/test and /qa/smoke-test-watcher)
x-pack/plugin/watcher/qa/with-security
x-pack/plugin/watcher/qa/with-monitoring
Additionally, this disables Watcher from the main
x-pack test cluster and consolidates the stop/start logic
for the tests listed.
No changes to the tests (beyond moving them) are included.
3rd party tests and doc tests (which also touch Watcher)
are not included in the changes here.
* Smarter copying of the rest specs and tests (#52114)
This PR addresses the unnecessary copying of the rest specs and allows
for better semantics for which specs and tests are copied. By default
the rest specs will get copied if the project applies
`elasticsearch.standalone-rest-test` or `esplugin` and the project
has rest tests or you configure the custom extension `restResources`.
This PR also removes the need for dozens of places where the x-pack
specs were copied by supporting copying of the x-pack rest specs too.
The plugin/task introduced here can also copy the rest tests to the
local project through a similar configuration.
The new plugin/task allows a user to minimize the surface area of
which rest specs are copied. Per project can be configured to include
only a subset of the specs (or tests). Configuring a project to only
copy the specs when actually needed should help with build cache hit
rates since we can better define what is actually in use.
However, project level optimizations for build cache hit rates are
not included with this PR.
Also, with this PR you can no longer use the includePackaged flag on
integTest task.
The following items are included in this PR:
* new plugin: `elasticsearch.rest-resources`
* new tasks: CopyRestApiTask and CopyRestTestsTask - performs the copy
* new extension 'restResources'
```
restResources {
restApi {
includeCore 'foo' , 'bar' //will include the core specs that start with foo and bar
includeXpack 'baz' //will include x-pack specs that start with baz
}
restTests {
includeCore 'foo', 'bar' //will include the core tests that start with foo and bar
includeXpack 'baz' //will include the x-pack tests that start with baz
}
}
```
The existing wording in the file realm docs proved confusing
for users as it seemed to indicate that it should _only_ be
used as a fallback/recovery realm and that it is not a
first class realm.
This change attempts to clarify this and point out that recovery
is _a_ use case for the file realm but not the only intended one.
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.

With elastic/elasticsearch#35848, users can now retrieve total hits as an integer when the `rest_total_hits_as_int` query parameter is `true`. This is the default value.
This updates several snippet examples in the Watcher docs that used a workaround to get a total hits integer.
This change adds a new `kibana_admin` role, and deprecates
the old `kibana_user` and`kibana_dashboard_only_user`roles.
The deprecation is implemented via a new reserved metadata
attribute, which can be consumed from the API and also triggers
deprecation logging when used (by a user authenticating to
Elasticsearch).
Some docs have been updated to avoid references to these
deprecated roles.

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.

PR #44238 changed several links related to the Elasticsearch search request body API. This updates several places still using outdated links or anchors.
This will ultimately let us remove some redirects related to those link changes.
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.
Backport of #49612.
The current Docker entrypoint script picks up environment variables and
translates them into -E command line arguments. However, since any tool
executes via `docker exec` doesn't run the entrypoint, it results in
a poorer user experience.
Therefore, refactor the env var handling so that the -E options are
generated in `elasticsearch-env`. These have to be appended to any
existing command arguments, since some CLI tools have subcommands and
-E arguments must come after the subcommand.
Also extract the support for `_FILE` env vars into a separate script, so
that it can be called from more than once place (the behaviour is
idempotent).
Finally, add noop -E handling to CronEvalTool for parity, and support
`-E` in MultiCommand before subcommands.
Backport of #48849. Update `.editorconfig` to make the Java settings the
default for all files, and then apply a 2-space indent to all `*.gradle`
files. Then reformat all the files.
Our documentation regarding FIPS 140 claimed that when using SAML
in a JVM that is configured in FIPS approved only mode, one could
not use encrypted assertions. This stemmed from a wrong
understanding regarding the compliance of RSA-OAEP which is used
as the key wrapping algorithm for encrypting the key with which the
SAML Assertion is encrypted.
However, as stated for instance in
https://downloads.bouncycastle.org/fips-java/BC-FJA-SecurityPolicy-1.0.0.pdf
RSA-OAEP is approved for key transport, so this limitation is not
effective.
This change removes the limitation from our FIPS 140 related
documentation.
