In #38333 and #38350 we moved away from the `discovery.zen` settings namespace
since these settings have an effect even though Zen Discovery itself is being
phased out. This change aligns the documentation and the names of related
classes and methods with the newly-introduced naming conventions.
This commit adds an authentication cache for API keys that caches the
hash of an API key with a faster hash. This will enable better
performance when API keys are used for bulk or heavy searching.
I have not been able to reproduce the failing
test scenario locally for #38408 and there are other similar
tests which are running fine in the same test class.
I am re-enabling the test with additional logs so
that we can debug further on what's happening.
I will keep the issue open for now and look out for the builds
to see if there are any related failures.
For some users, the built in authorization mechanism does not fit their
needs and no feature that we offer would allow them to control the
authorization process to meet their needs. In order to support this,
a concept of an AuthorizationEngine is being introduced, which can be
provided using the security extension mechanism.
An AuthorizationEngine is responsible for making the authorization
decisions about a request. The engine is responsible for knowing how to
authorize and can be backed by whatever mechanism a user wants. The
default mechanism is one backed by roles to provide the authorization
decisions. The AuthorizationEngine will be called by the
AuthorizationService, which handles more of the internal workings that
apply in general to authorization within Elasticsearch.
In order to support external authorization services that would back an
authorization engine, the entire authorization process has become
asynchronous, which also includes all calls to the AuthorizationEngine.
The use of roles also leaked out of the AuthorizationService in our
existing code that is not specifically related to roles so this also
needed to be addressed. RequestInterceptor instances sometimes used a
role to ensure a user was not attempting to escalate their privileges.
Addressing this leakage of roles meant that the RequestInterceptor
execution needed to move within the AuthorizationService and that
AuthorizationEngines needed to support detection of whether a user has
more privileges on a name than another. The second area where roles
leaked to the user is in the handling of a few privilege APIs that
could be used to retrieve the user's privileges or ask if a user has
privileges to perform an action. To remove the leakage of roles from
these actions, the AuthorizationService and AuthorizationEngine gained
methods that enabled an AuthorizationEngine to return the response for
these APIs.
Ultimately this feature is the work included in:
#37785#37495#37328#36245#38137#38219Closes#32435
Elasticsearch has long [supported](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docs-index_.html#index-versioning) compare and set (a.k.a optimistic concurrency control) operations using internal document versioning. Sadly that approach is flawed and can sometime do the wrong thing. Here's the relevant excerpt from the resiliency status page:
> When a primary has been partitioned away from the cluster there is a short period of time until it detects this. During that time it will continue indexing writes locally, thereby updating document versions. When it tries to replicate the operation, however, it will discover that it is partitioned away. It won’t acknowledge the write and will wait until the partition is resolved to negotiate with the master on how to proceed. The master will decide to either fail any replicas which failed to index the operations on the primary or tell the primary that it has to step down because a new primary has been chosen in the meantime. Since the old primary has already written documents, clients may already have read from the old primary before it shuts itself down. The version numbers of these reads may not be unique if the new primary has already accepted writes for the same document
We recently [introduced](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.x/optimistic-concurrency-control.html) a new sequence number based approach that doesn't suffer from this dirty reads problem.
This commit removes support for internal versioning as a concurrency control mechanism in favor of the sequence number approach.

With this change we no longer support pluggable discovery implementations. No
known implementations of `DiscoveryPlugin` actually override this method, so in
practice this should have no effect on the wider world. However, we were using
this rather extensively in tests to provide the `test-zen` discovery type. We
no longer need a separate discovery type for tests as we no longer need to
customise its behaviour.
Relates #38410
Authn is enabled only if `license_type` is non `basic`, but `basic` is
what the `LicenseService` generates implicitly. This commit explicitly sets
license type to `trial`, which allows for authn, in the `SecuritySettingsSource`
which is the settings configuration parameter for `InternalTestCluster`s.
The real problem, that had created tests failures like #31028 and #32685, is
that the check `licenseState.isAuthAllowed()` can change sporadically. If it were
to return `true` or `false` during the whole test there would be no problem.
The problem manifests when it turns from `true` to `false` right before `Realms.asList()`.
There are other license checks before this one (request filter, token service, etc)
that would not cause a problem if they would suddenly see the check as `false`.
But switching to `false` before `Realms.asList()` makes it appear that no installed
realms could have handled the authn token which is an authentication error, as can
be seen in the failing tests.
Closes#31028#32685
Renames the following settings to remove the mention of `zen` in their names:
- `discovery.zen.hosts_provider` -> `discovery.seed_providers`
- `discovery.zen.ping.unicast.concurrent_connects` -> `discovery.seed_resolver.max_concurrent_resolvers`
- `discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts.resolve_timeout` -> `discovery.seed_resolver.timeout`
- `discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts` -> `discovery.seed_addresses`
X-Pack security supports built-in authentication service
`token-service` that allows access tokens to be used to
access Elasticsearch without using Basic authentication.
The tokens are generated by `token-service` based on
OAuth2 spec. The access token is a short-lived token
(defaults to 20m) and refresh token with a lifetime of 24 hours,
making them unsuitable for long-lived or recurring tasks where
the system might go offline thereby failing refresh of tokens.
This commit introduces a built-in authentication service
`api-key-service` that adds support for long-lived tokens aka API
keys to access Elasticsearch. The `api-key-service` is consulted
after `token-service` in the authentication chain. By default,
if TLS is enabled then `api-key-service` is also enabled.
The service can be disabled using the configuration setting.
The API keys:-
- by default do not have an expiration but expiration can be
configured where the API keys need to be expired after a
certain amount of time.
- when generated will keep authentication information of the user that
generated them.
- can be defined with a role describing the privileges for accessing
Elasticsearch and will be limited by the role of the user that
generated them
- can be invalidated via invalidation API
- information can be retrieved via a get API
- that have been expired or invalidated will be retained for 1 week
before being deleted. The expired API keys remover task handles this.
Following are the API key management APIs:-
1. Create API Key - `PUT/POST /_security/api_key`
2. Get API key(s) - `GET /_security/api_key`
3. Invalidate API Key(s) `DELETE /_security/api_key`
The API keys can be used to access Elasticsearch using `Authorization`
header, where the auth scheme is `ApiKey` and the credentials, is the
base64 encoding of API key Id and API key separated by a colon.
Example:-
```
curl -H "Authorization: ApiKey YXBpLWtleS1pZDphcGkta2V5" http://localhost:9200/_cluster/health
```
Closes#34383
We mention in our documentation for the token
expiration configuration maximum value is 1 hour
but do not enforce it. This commit adds max limit
to the TOKEN_EXPIRATION setting.
This commit introduces a background sync for retention leases. The idea
here is that we do a heavyweight sync when adding a new retention lease,
and then periodically we want to background sync any retention lease
renewals to the replicas. As long as the background sync interval is
significantly lower than the extended lifetime of a retention lease, it
is okay if from time to time a replica misses a sync (it will still have
an older version of the lease that is retaining more data as we assume
that renewals do not decrease the retaining sequence number). There are
two follow-ups that will come after this commit. The first is to address
the fact that we have not adapted the should periodically flush logic to
possibly flush the retention leases. We want to do something like flush
if we have not flushed in the last five minutes and there are renewed
retention leases since the last time that we flushed. An additional
follow-up will remove the syncing of retention leases when a retention
lease expires. Today this sync could be invoked in the background by a
merge operation. Rather, we will move the syncing of retention lease
expiration to be done under the background sync. The background sync
will use the heavyweight sync (write action) if a lease has expired, and
will use the lightweight background sync (replication action) otherwise.
It would be beneficial to apply some of the request interceptors even
when features are disabled. This change reworks the way we build that
list so that the interceptors we always want to use are constructed
outside of the settings check.
The culprit in #38097 is an `IndicesRequest` that has no indices,
but instead of `request.indices()` returning `null` or `String[0]`
it returned `String[] {null}` . This tripped the audit filter.
I have addressed this in two ways:
1. `request.indices()` returning `String[] {null}` is treated as `null`
or `String[0]`, i.e. no indices
2. `null` values among the roles and indices lists, which are
unexpected, will never again stumble the audit filter; `null` values
are treated as special values that will not match any policy,
i.e. their events will always be printed.
Closes#38097
Scheduler.schedule(...) would previously assume that caller handles
exception by calling get() on the returned ScheduledFuture.
schedule() now returns a ScheduledCancellable that no longer gives
access to the exception. Instead, any exception thrown out of a
scheduled Runnable is logged as a warning.
This is a continuation of #28667, #36137 and also fixes#37708.
The apache commons http client implementations recently released
versions that solve TLS compatibility issues with the new TLS engine
that supports TLSv1.3 with JDK 11. This change updates our code to
use these versions since JDK 11 is a supported JDK and we should
allow the use of TLSv1.3.
Today we pass `discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes` to nodes started up in
tests, but for 7.x nodes this setting is not required as it has no effect.
This commit removes this setting so that nodes are started with more realistic
configurations, and deprecates it.
The certgen, certutil and saml-metadata tools did not correctly return
their exit code to the calling shell.
These commands now explicitly exit with the code that was returned
from the main(args, terminal) method.
Restricted indices (currently only .security-6 and .security) are special
internal indices that require setting the `allow_restricted_indices` flag
on every index permission that covers them. If this flag is `false`
(default) the permission will not cover these and actions against them
will not be authorized.
However, the monitoring APIs were the only exception to this rule.
This exception is herein forfeited and index monitoring privileges have to be
granted explicitly, using the `allow_restricted_indices` flag on the permission,
as is the case for any other index privilege.
This commit introduces the `create_snapshot` cluster privilege and
the `snapshot_user` role.
This role is to be used by "cronable" tools that call the snapshot API
periodically without recurring to the `manage` cluster privilege. The
`create_snapshot` cluster privilege is much more limited compared to
the `manage` privilege.
The `snapshot_user` role grants the privileges to view the metadata of
all indices (including restricted ones, i.e. .security). It obviously grants the
create snapshot privilege but the repository has to be created using another
role. In addition, it grants the privileges to (only) GET repositories and
snapshots, but not create and delete them.
The role does not allow to create repositories. This distinction is important
because snapshotting equates to the `read` index privilege if the user has
control of the snapshot destination, but this is not the case in this instance,
because the role does not grant control over repository configuration.
This commit introduces retention lease syncing from the primary to its
replicas when a new retention lease is added. A follow-up commit will
add a background sync of the retention leases as well so that renewed
retention leases are synced to replicas.

This commit changes the default for the `track_total_hits` option of the search request
to `10,000`. This means that by default search requests will accurately track the total hit count
up to `10,000` documents, requests that match more than this value will set the `"total.relation"`
to `"gte"` (e.g. greater than or equals) and the `"total.value"` to `10,000` in the search response.
Scroll queries are not impacted, they will continue to count the total hits accurately.
The default is set back to `true` (accurate hit count) if `rest_total_hits_as_int` is set in the search request.
I choose `10,000` as the default because that's also the number we use to limit pagination. This means that users will be able to know how far they can jump (up to 10,000) even if the total number of hits is not accurate.
Closes#33028
When we can't map the principal attribute from the configured SAML
attribute in the realm settings, we can't complete the
authentication. We return an error to the user indicating this and
we present them with a list of attributes we did get from the SAML
response to point out that the expected one was not part of that
list. This list will never contain the NameIDs though as they are
not part of the SAMLAttribute list. So we might have a NameID but
just with a different format.
This commit removes the Index Audit Output type, following its deprecation
in 6.7 by 8765a31d4e6770. It also adds the migration notice (settings notice).
In general, the problem with the index audit output is that event indexing
can be slower than the rate with which audit events are generated,
especially during the daily rollovers or the rolling cluster upgrades.
In this situation audit events will be lost which is a terrible failure situation
for an audit system.
Besides of the settings under the `xpack.security.audit.index` namespace, the
`xpack.security.audit.outputs` setting has also been deprecated and will be
removed in 7. Although explicitly configuring the logfile output does not touch
any deprecation bits, this setting is made redundant in 7 so this PR deprecates
it as well.

This commit adds missing stubbing.
Closes: #37657
Currently we create dedicated network threads for both the http and
transport implementations. Since these these threads should never
perform blocking operations, these threads could be shared. This commit
modifies the nio-transport to have 0 http workers be default. If the
default configs are used, this will cause the http transport to be run
on the transport worker threads. The http worker setting will still exist
in case the user would like to configure dedicated workers. Additionally,
this commmit deletes dedicated acceptor threads. We have never had these
for the netty transport and they can be added back if a need is
determined in the future.
This grants the capability to grant privileges over certain restricted
indices (.security and .security-6 at the moment).
It also removes the special status of the superuser role.
IndicesPermission.Group is extended by adding the `allow_restricted_indices`
boolean flag. By default the flag is false. When it is toggled, you acknowledge
that the indices under the scope of the permission group can cover the
restricted indices as well. Otherwise, by default, restricted indices are ignored
when granting privileges, thus rendering them hidden for authorization purposes.
This effectively adds a confirmation "check-box" for roles that might grant
privileges to restricted indices.
The "special status" of the superuser role has been removed and coded as
any other role:
```
new RoleDescriptor("superuser",
new String[] { "all" },
new RoleDescriptor.IndicesPrivileges[] {
RoleDescriptor.IndicesPrivileges.builder()
.indices("*")
.privileges("all")
.allowRestrictedIndices(true)
// this ----^
.build() },
new RoleDescriptor.ApplicationResourcePrivileges[] {
RoleDescriptor.ApplicationResourcePrivileges.builder()
.application("*")
.privileges("*")
.resources("*")
.build()
},
null, new String[] { "*" },
MetadataUtils.DEFAULT_RESERVED_METADATA,
Collections.emptyMap());
```
In the context of the Backup .security work, this allows the creation of a
"curator role" that would permit listing (get settings) for all indices
(including the restricted ones). That way the curator role would be able to
ist and snapshot all indices, but not read or restore any of them.

This change fixes failures in the SslMultiPortTests where we attempt to
connect to a profile on a port it is listening on but the connection
fails. The failure is due to the profile being bound to multiple
addresses and randomization will pick one of these addresses to
determine the listening port. However, the address we get the port for
may not be the address we are actually connecting to. In order to
resolve this, the test now sets the bind host for profiles to the
loopback address and uses the same address for connecting.

We make sure to specify include_type_name=true during xContent parsing,

for the typeless responses is currently only covered by REST tests,
but we will be adding unit test coverage for these as we implement
each typeless API in the Java HLRC.
This commit also refactors GetMappingsResponse to follow the same appraoch
as the other mappings-related responses, where we read include_type_name
out of the xContent params, instead of creating a second toXContent method.
This gives better consistency in the response parsing code.
* Fix more REST tests.
* Improve some wording in the create index documentation.
* Add a note about types removal in the create index docs.

This commit removes the fallback for SSL settings. While this may be
seen as a non user friendly change, the intention behind this change
is to simplify the reasoning needed to understand what is actually
being used for a given SSL configuration. Each configuration now needs
to be explicitly specified as there is no global configuration or
fallback to some other configuration.
Closes#29797
Adds another field, named "request.method", to the structured logfile audit.
This field is present for all events associated with a REST request (not a
transport request) and the value is one of GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS,
HEAD, PATCH, TRACE and CONNECT.
This commit reorders the realm list for iteration based on the last
successful authentication for the given principal. This is an
optimization to prevent unnecessary iteration over realms if we can
make a smart guess on which realm to try first.
This commit fixes a race condition in a test introduced by #36900 that
verifies concurrent authentications get a result propagated from the
first thread that attempts to authenticate. Previously, a thread may
be in a state where it had not attempted to authenticate when the first
thread that authenticates finishes the authentication, which would
cause the test to fail as there would be an additional authentication
attempt. This change adds additional latches to ensure all threads have
attempted to authenticate before a result gets returned in the
thread that is performing authentication.
Closing a channel using TLS/SSL requires reading and writing a
CLOSE_NOTIFY message (for pre-1.3 TLS versions). Many implementations do
not actually send the CLOSE_NOTIFY message, which means we are depending
on the TCP close from the other side to ensure channels are closed. In
case there is an issue with this, we need a timeout. This commit adds a
timeout to the channel close process for TLS secured channels.
As part of this change, we need a timer service. We could use the
generic Elasticsearch timeout threadpool. However, it would be nice to
have a local to the nio event loop timer service dedicated to network needs. In
the future this service could support read timeouts, connect timeouts,
request timeouts, etc. This commit adds a basic priority queue backed
service. Since our timeout volume (channel closes) is very low, this
should be fine. However, this can be updated to something more efficient
in the future if needed (timer wheel). Everything being local to the event loop
thread makes the logic simple as no locking or synchronization is necessary.
This bug was introduced in #36893 and had the effect that
execution would continue after calling onFailure on the the
listener in checkIfTokenIsValid in the case that the token is
expired. In a case of many consecutive requests this could lead to
the unwelcome side effect of an expired access token producing a
successful authentication response.
After #30794, our caching realms limit each principal to a single auth
attempt at a time. This prevents hammering of external servers but can
cause a significant performance hit when requests need to go through a
realm that takes a long time to attempt to authenticate in order to get
to the realm that actually authenticates. In order to address this,
this change will propagate failed results to listeners if they use the
same set of credentials that the authentication attempt used. This does
prevent these stalled requests from retrying the authentication attempt
but the implementation does allow for new requests to retry the
attempt.
We run subsequent token invalidation requests and we still want to
trigger the deletion of expired tokens so we need to lower the
deleteInterval parameter significantly. Especially now that the

much shorter

InvalidateTokenResponse as it is no longer useful in > 7.0
If we don't explicitly sett the client SSLSocketFactory when
creating an InMemoryDirectoryServer and setting its SSL config, it
will result in using a TrustAllTrustManager(that extends
X509TrustManager) which is not allowed in a FIPS 140 JVM.
Instead, we get the SSLSocketFactory from the existing SSLContext
and pass that to be used.
Resolves#37013
The phrase "missing authentication token" is historic and is based
around the use of "AuthenticationToken" objects inside the Realm code.
However, now that we have a TokenService and token API, this message
would sometimes lead people in the wrong direction and they would try
and generate a "token" for authentication purposes when they would
typically just need a username:password Basic Auth header.
This change replaces the word "token" with "credentials".
In #30509 we changed the way SSL configuration is reloaded when the

a test for this functionality.

Realm settings were changed in #30241 in a non-BWC way.
If you try and start a 7.x node using a 6.x config style, then the
default error messages do not adequately describe the cause of
the problem, or the solution.
This change detects the when realms are using the 6.x style and fails
with a specific error message.
This detection is a best-effort, and will detect issues when the
realms have not been modified to use the 7.x style, but may not detect
situations where the configuration was partially changed.
e.g. We can detect this:
xpack.security.authc:
realms.pki1.type: pki
realms.pki1.order: 3
realms.pki1.ssl.certificate_authorities: [ "ca.crt" ]
But this (where the "order" has been updated, but the "ssl.*" has not)
will fall back to the standard "unknown setting" check
xpack.security.authc:
realms.pki.pki1.order: 3
realms.pki1.ssl.certificate_authorities: [ "ca.crt" ]

This commit updates our transport settings for 7.0. It generally takes a
few approaches. First, for normal transport settings, it usestransport.
instead of transport.tcp. Second, it uses transport.tcp, http.tcp,
or network.tcp for all settings that are proxies for OS level socket
settings. Third, it marks the network.tcp.connect_timeout setting for
removal. Network service level settings are only settings that apply to
both the http and transport modules. There is no connect timeout in
http. Fourth, it moves all the transport settings to a single class
TransportSettings similar to the HttpTransportSettings class.
This commit does not actually remove any settings. It just adds the new
renamed settings and adds todos for settings that will be deprecated.
There are certain BootstrapCheck checks that may need access environment-specific
values. Watcher's EncryptSensitiveDataBootstrapCheck passes in the node's environment
via a constructor to bypass the shortcoming in BootstrapContext. This commit
pulls in the node's environment into BootstrapContext.
Another case is found in #36519, where it is useful to check the state of the
data-path. Since PathUtils.get and Paths.get are forbidden APIs, we rely on
the environment to retrieve references to things like node data paths.
This means that the BootstrapContext will have the same Settings used in the
Environment, which currently differs from the Node's settings.
`PageCacheRecycler` is the class that creates and holds pages of arrays
for various uses. `BigArrays` is just one user of these pages. This
commit moves the constants that define the page sizes for the recycler
to be on the recycler class.
This commit modifies BigArrays to take a circuit breaker name and
the circuit breaking service. The default instance of BigArrays that
is passed around everywhere always uses the request breaker. At the
network level, we want to be using the inflight request breaker. So this
change will allow that.
Additionally, as this change moves away from a single instance of
BigArrays, the class is modified to not be a Releasable anymore.
Releasing big arrays was always dispatching to the PageCacheRecycler,
so this change makes the PageCacheRecycler the class that needs to be
managed and torn-down.
Finally, this commit closes#31435 be making the serialization of
transport messages use the inflight request breaker. With this change,
we no longer push the global BigArrays instnace to the network level.
* This commit is part of our plan to deprecate and ultimately remove the use of _xpack in the REST APIs.
- REST API docs

- Handle REST actions with deprecation warnings
- Changed endpoints in rest-api-spec and relevant file names
The following updates were made:
- Add a new untyped endpoint `{index}/_explain/{id}`.
- Add deprecation warnings to Rest*Action, plus tests in Rest*ActionTests.
- For each REST yml test, make sure there is one version without types, and another legacy version that retains types (called *_with_types.yml).
- Deprecate relevant methods on the Java HLRC requests/ responses.
- Update documentation (for both the REST API and Java HLRC).
This is related to #27260. In Elasticsearch all of the messages that we
serialize to write to the network are composed of heap bytes. When you
read or write to a nio socket in java, the heap memory you passed down
must be copied to/from direct memory. The JVM internally does some
buffering of the direct memory, however it is essentially unbounded.
This commit introduces a simple mechanism of buffering and copying the
memory in transport-nio. Each network event loop is given a 64kb
DirectByteBuffer. When we go to read we use this buffer and copy the
data after the read. Additionally, when we go to write, we copy the data
to the direct memory before calling write. 64KB is chosen as this is the
default receive buffer size we use for transport-netty4
(NETTY_RECEIVE_PREDICTOR_SIZE).
Since we only have one buffer per thread, we could afford larger.
However, if we the buffer is large and not all of the data is flushed in
a write call, we will do excess copies. This is something we can
explore in the future.
* Add deprecation warnings to `Rest*TermVectorsAction`, plus tests in `Rest*TermVectorsActionTests`.
* Deprecate relevant methods on the Java HLRC requests/ responses.
* Update documentation (for both the REST API and Java HLRC).
* For each REST yml test, create one version without types, and another legacy version that retains types (called *_with_types.yml).
We have a few places where we register license state listeners on
transient components (i.e., resources that can be open and closed during
the lifecycle of the server). In one case (the opt-out query cache) we
were never removing the registered listener, effectively a terrible
memory leak. In another case, we were not un-registered the listener
that we registered, since we were not referencing the same instance of
Runnable. This commit does two things:
- introduces a marker interface LicenseStateListener so that it is
easier to identify these listeners in the codebase and avoid classes
that need to register a license state listener from having to
implement Runnable which carries a different semantic meaning than
we want here
- fixes the two places where we are currently leaking license state
listeners
This commit changes the format of the `hits.total` in the search response to be an object with
a `value` and a `relation`. The `value` indicates the number of hits that match the query and the
`relation` indicates whether the number is accurate (in which case the relation is equals to `eq`)
or a lower bound of the total (in which case it is equals to `gte`).
This change also adds a parameter called `rest_total_hits_as_int` that can be used in the
search APIs to opt out from this change (retrieve the total hits as a number in the rest response).
Note that currently all search responses are accurate (`track_total_hits: true`) or they don't contain
`hits.total` (`track_total_hits: true`). We'll add a way to get a lower bound of the total hits in a
follow up (to allow numbers to be passed to `track_total_hits`).

Made credentials mandatory for xpack migrate tool.
Closes#29847.
The x-pack user and roles APIs aren't available unless security is enabled, so the tool should always be called with the -u and -p options specified.
This commit adds an empty CcrRepository snapshot/restore repository.
When a new cluster is registered in the remote cluster settings, a new
CcrRepository is registered for that cluster.
This is implemented using a new concept of "internal repositories".
RepositoryPlugin now allows implementations to return factories for
"internal repositories". The "internal repositories" are different from
normal repositories in that they cannot be registered through the
external repository api. Additionally, "internal repositories" are local
to a node and are not stored in the cluster state.
The repository will be unregistered if the remote cluster is removed.
This commit makes `document`, `update`, `explain`, `termvectors` and `mapping`
typeless APIs work on indices that have a type whose name is not `_doc`.
Unfortunately, this needs to be a bit of a hack since I didn't want calls with
random type names to see documents with the type name that the user had chosen
upon type creation.
The `explain` and `termvectors` do not support being called without a type for
now so the test is just using `_doc` as a type for now, we will need to fix
tests later but this shouldn't require further changes server-side since passing
`_doc` as a type name is what typeless APIs do internally anyway.

Introduces a debug log message when a bind fails and a trace message
when a bind succeeds.
It may seem strange to only debug a bind failure, but failures of this
nature are relatively common in some realm configurations (e.g. LDAP
realm with multiple user templates, or additional realms configured
after an LDAP realm).
This is a follow-up to #35144. That commit made the underlying
connection opening process in TcpTransport asynchronous. However the
method still blocked on the process being complete before returning.
This commit moves the blocking to the ConnectionManager level. This is
another step towards the top-level TransportService api being async.
This commit upgrades netty. This will close#35360. Netty started
throwing an IllegalArgumentException if a CompositeByteBuf is
created with < 2 components. Netty4Utils was updated to reflect this
change.
This is related to #34405 and a follow-up to #34753. It makes a number
of changes to our current keepalive pings.
The ping interval configuration is moved to the ConnectionProfile.
The server channel now responds to pings. This makes the keepalive
pings bidirectional.
On the client-side, the pings can now be optimized away. What this
means is that if the channel has received a message or sent a message
since the last pinging round, the ping is not sent for this round.
Today the default for USE_ZEN2 is false and it is overridden in many places. By
defaulting it to true we can be sure that the only places in which Zen2 does
not work are those in which it is explicitly set to false.
In #30241 Realm settings were changed, but the Kerberos realm settings
were not registered correctly. This change fixes the registration of
those Kerberos settings.
Also adds a new integration test that ensures every internal realm can
be configured in a test cluster.
Also fixes the QA test for kerberos.
Resolves: #35942
Right now using the `GET /_tasks/<taskid>` API and causing a task to opt
in to saving its result after being completed requires permissions on
the `.tasks` index. When we built this we thought that that was fine,
but we've since moved towards not leaking details like "persisting task
results after the task is completed is done by saving them into an index
named `.tasks`." A more modern way of doing this would be to save the
tasks into the index "under the hood" and to have APIs to manage the
saved tasks. This is the first step down that road: it drops the
requirement to have permissions to interact with the `.tasks` index when
fetching task statuses and when persisting statuses beyond the lifetime
of the task.
In particular, this moves the concept of the "origin" of an action into
a more prominent place in the Elasticsearch server. The origin of an
action is ignored by the server, but the security plugin uses the origin
to make requests on behalf of a user in such a way that the user need
not have permissions to perform these actions. It *can* be made to be
fairly precise. More specifically, we can create an internal user just
for the tasks API that just has permission to interact with the `.tasks`
index. This change doesn't do that, instead, it uses the ubiquitus
"xpack" user which has most permissions because it is simpler. Adding
the tasks user is something I'd like to get to in a follow up change.
Instead, the majority of this change is about moving the "origin"
concept from the security portion of x-pack into the server. This should
allow any code to use the origin. To keep the change managable I've also
opted to deprecate rather than remove the "origin" helpers in the
security code. Removing them is almost entirely mechanical and I'd like
to that in a follow up as well.

Clients can use the Kerberos V5 security mechanism and when it

- Add the authentication realm and lookup realm name and type in the response for the _authenticate API
- The authentication realm is set as the lookup realm too (instead of setting the lookup realm to null or empty ) when no lookup realm is used.
This commit is related to #32517. It allows an "sni_server_name"
attribute on a DiscoveryNode to be propagated to the server using
the TLS SNI extentsion. Prior to this commit, this functionality
was only support for the netty transport. This commit adds this
functionality to the security nio transport.
This commit adds a test for handling correctly all they possible
`SamlPrepareAuthenticationRequest` parameter combinations that
we might get from Kibana or a custom web application talking to the
SAML APIs.
We can match the correct SAML realm based either on the realm name
or the ACS URL. If both are included in the request then both need to
match the realm configuration.
This generates a synthesized "id" for each incoming request that is
included in the audit logs (file only).
This id can be used to correlate events for the same request (e.g.
authentication success with access granted).
This request.id is specific to the audit logs and is not used for any
other purpose
The request.id is consistent across nodes if a single request requires
execution on multiple nodes (e.g. search acros multiple shards).
When assertions are enabled, a Put User action that have no effect (a
noop update) would trigger an assertion failure and shutdown the node.
This change accepts "noop" as an update result, and adds more
diagnostics to the assertion failure message.
The RestHasPrivilegesAction previously handled its own XContent
generation. This change moves that into HasPrivilegesResponse and
makes the response implement ToXContent.
This allows HasPrivilegesResponseTests to be used to test
compatibility between HLRC and X-Pack internals.
A serialization bug (cluster privs) was also fixed here.
* The port assigned to all loopback interfaces doesn't necessarily have to be the same for ipv4 and ipv6

Zen2 is now feature-complete enough to run most ESIntegTestCase tests. The changes in this PR
are as follows:
- ClusterSettingsIT is adapted to not be Zen1 specific anymore (it was using Zen1 settings).
- Some of the integration tests require persistent storage of the cluster state, which is not fully
implemented yet (see #33958). These tests keep running with Zen1 for now but will be switched
over as soon as that is fully implemented.
- Some very few integration tests are not running yet with Zen2 for other reasons, depending on
some of the other open points in #32006.
The DefaultAuthenticationFailureHandler has a deprecated constructor
that was present to prevent a breaking change to custom realm plugin
authors in 6.x. This commit removes the constructor and its uses.
For some time, the PutUser REST API has supported storing a pre-hashed
password for a user. The change adds validation and tests around that
feature so that it can be documented & officially supported.
It also prevents the request from containing both a "password" and a "password_hash".
Many realm tests were written to use separate setting objects for
"global settings" and "realm settings".
Since #30241 there is no distinction between these settings, so these
tests can be cleaned up to use a single Settings object.
This is related to #34483. It introduces a namespaced setting for
compression that allows users to configure compression on a per remote
cluster basis. The transport.tcp.compress remains as a fallback
setting. If transport.tcp.compress is set to true, then all requests
and responses are compressed. If it is set to false, only requests to
clusters based on the cluster.remote.cluster_name.transport.compress
setting are compressed. However, after this change regardless of any
local settings, responses will be compressed if the request that is
received was compressed.
- Introduces a transport API for bootstrapping a Zen2 cluster
- Introduces a transport API for requesting the set of nodes that a
master-eligible node has discovered and for waiting until this comprises the
expected number of nodes.
- Alters ESIntegTestCase to use these APIs when forming a cluster, rather than
injecting the initial configuration directly.
There is no longer a concept of non-global "realm settings". All realm
settings should be loaded from the node's settings using standard
Setting classes.
This change renames the "globalSettings" field and method to simply be
"settings".
The file realm has not supported custom filenames/locations since at
least 5.0, but this test still tried to configure them.
Remove all configuration of file locations, and cleaned up a few other
warnings and deprecations
With this change, `Version` no longer carries information about the qualifier,
we still need a way to show the "display version" that does have both
qualifier and snapshot. This is now stored by the build and red from `META-INF`.
This is related to #29023. Additionally at other points we have
discussed a preference for removing the need to unnecessarily block
threads for opening new node connections. This commit lays the groudwork
for this by opening connections asynchronously at the transport level.
We still block, however, this work will make it possible to eventually
remove all blocking on new connections out of the TransportService
and Transport.
This moves all Realm settings to an Affix definition.
However, because different realm types define different settings
(potentially conflicting settings) this requires that the realm type
become part of the setting key.
Thus, we now need to define realm settings as:
xpack.security.authc.realms:
file.file1:
order: 0
native.native1:
order: 1
- This is a breaking change to realm config
- This is also a breaking change to custom security realms (SecurityExtension)
Stop passing `Settings` to `AbstractComponent`'s ctor. This allows us to
stop passing around `Settings` in a *ton* of places. While this change
touches many files, it touches them all in fairly small, mechanical
ways, doing a few things per file:
1. Drop the `super(settings);` line on everything that extends
`AbstractComponent`.
2. Drop the `settings` argument to the ctor if it is no longer used.
3. If the file doesn't use `logger` then drop `extends
AbstractComponent` from it.
4. Clean up all compilation failure caused by the `settings` removal
and drop any now unused `settings` isntances and method arguments.
I've intentionally *not* removed the `settings` argument from a few
files:
1. TransportAction
2. AbstractLifecycleComponent
3. BaseRestHandler
These files don't *need* `settings` either, but this change is large
enough as is.
Relates to #34488
Drops the `Settings` member from `AbstractComponent`, moving it from the
base class on to the classes that use it. For the most part this is a
mechanical change that doesn't drop `Settings` accesses. The one
exception to this is naming threads where it switches from an invocation
that passes `Settings` and extracts the node name to one that explicitly
passes the node name.
This change doesn't drop the `Settings` argument from
`AbstractComponent`'s ctor because this change is big enough as is.
We'll do that in a follow up change.
The native roles store previously would issue a search if attempting to
retrieve more than a single role. This is fine when we are attempting
to retrieve all of the roles to list them in the api, but could cause
issues when attempting to find roles for a user. The search is not
prioritized over other search requests, so heavy aggregations/searches
or overloaded nodes could cause roles to be cached as missing if the
search is rejected.
When attempting to load specific roles, we know the document id for the
role that we are trying to load, which allows us to use the multi-get
api for loading these roles. This change makes use of the multi-get api
when attempting to load more than one role by name. This api is also
constrained by a threadpool but the tasks in the GET threadpool should
be quicker than searches.
See #33205
SSLTrustRestrictionsTests.testRestrictionsAreReloaded checks that the
SSL trust configuration is automatically updated reapplied if the
underlying "trust_restrictions.yml" file is modified.
Since the default resource watcher frequency is 5seconds, it could
take 10 second to run that test (as it waits for 2 reloaded).
Previously this test set that frequency to a very low value (3ms) so
that the elapsed time for the test would be reduced. However this
caused other problems, including that the resource watcher would
frequently run while the cluster was shutting down and files were
being cleaned up.
This change resets that watch frequency back to its default (5s) and
then manually calls the "notifyNow" method on the resource watcher
whenever the restrictions file is modified, so that the SSL trust
configuration is reloaded at exactly the right time.

In order to remove Streamable from the codebase, Response objects need
to be read using the Writeable.Reader interface which this change
enables. This change enables the use of Writeable.Reader by adding the
`Action#getResponseReader` method. The default implementation simply
uses the existing `newResponse` method and the readFrom method. As
responses are migrated to the Writeable.Reader interface, Action
classes can be updated to throw an UnsupportedOperationException when
`newResponse` is called and override the `getResponseReader` method.

This is related to #30876. The AbstractSimpleTransportTestCase initiates
many tcp connections. There are normally over 1,000 connections in
TIME_WAIT at the end of the test. This is because every test opens at
least two different transports that connect to each other with 13
channel connection profiles. This commit modifies the default
connection profile used by this test to 6. One connection for each
type, except for REG which gets 2 connections.

This fixes a bug about aliases authorization.
That is, a user might see aliases which he is not authorized to see.
This manifests when the user is not authorized to see any aliases
and the `GetAlias` request is empty which normally is a marking
that all aliases are requested. In this case, no aliases should be
returned, but due to this bug, all aliases will have been returned.
JDK11 introduced some changes with the SSLEngine. A number of error
messages were changed. Additionally, there were some behavior changes
in regard to how the SSLEngine handles closes during the handshake
process. This commit updates our tests and SSLDriver to support these
changes.
The security native stores follow a pattern where
`SecurityIndexManager#prepareIndexIfNeededThenExecute` wraps most calls
made for the security index. The reasoning behind this was to check if
the security index had been upgraded to the latest version in a
consistent manner. However, this has the potential side effect that a
read will trigger the creation of the security index or an updating of
its mappings, which can lead to issues such as failures due to put
mapping requests timing out even though we might have been able to read
from the index and get the data necessary.
This change introduces a new method, `checkIndexVersionThenExecute`,
that provides the consistent checking of the security index to make
sure it has been upgraded. That is the only check that this method
performs prior to running the passed in operation, which removes the
possible triggering of index creation and mapping updates for reads.
Additionally, areas where we do reads now check the availability of the
security index and can short circuit requests. Availability in this
context means that the index exists and all primaries are active.
This is the fixed version of #34246, which was reverted.

For user/_has_privileges and user/_privileges, handle the case where
there is no user in the security context. This is likely to indicate
that the server is running with a basic license, in which case the

we don't throw a NPE).
The implementation here is based on the _authenticate API.
Resolves: #34567
The logfile audit log format is no longer formed by prefix fields followed
by key value fields, it is all formed by key value fields only (JSON format).
Consequently, the following settings, which toggled some of the prefix
fields, have been renamed:
audit.logfile .prefix.emit_node_host_address
audit.logfile .prefix.emit_node_host_name
audit.logfile .prefix.emit_node_name
This API is intended as a companion to the _has_privileges API.
It returns the list of privileges that are held by the current user.
This information is difficult to reason about, and consumers should
avoid making direct security decisions based solely on this data.
For example, each of the following index privileges (as well as many
more) would grant a user access to index a new document into the
"metrics-2018-08-30" index, but clients should not try and deduce
that information from this API.
- "all" on "*"
- "all" on "metrics-*"
- "write" on "metrics-2018-*"
- "write" on "metrics-2018-08-30"
Rather, if a client wished to know if a user had "index" access to
_any_ index, it would be possible to use this API to determine whether
the user has any index privileges, and on which index patterns, and
then feed those index patterns into _has_privileges in order to
determine whether the "index" privilege had been granted.
The result JSON is modelled on the Role API, with a few small changes
to reflect how privileges are modelled when multiple roles are merged
together (multiple DLS queries, multiple FLS grants, multiple global
conditions, etc).
This reverts commit 0b4e8db1d3 as some
issues have been identified with the changed handling of a primary
shard of the security index not being available.
The token service has fairly strict validation and there are a range
of reasons why request may be rejected.
The detail is typically returned in the client exception / json body
but the ES admin can only debug that if they have access to detailed
logs from the client.
This commit adds debug & trace logging to the token service so that it
is possible to perform this debugging from the server side if
necessary.

Security caches the result of role lookups and negative lookups are
cached indefinitely. In the case of transient failures this leads to a
bad experience as the roles could truly exist. The CompositeRolesStore
needs to know if a failure occurred in one of the roles stores in order
to make the appropriate decision as it relates to caching. In order to
provide this information to the CompositeRolesStore, the return type of
methods to retrieve roles has changed to a new class,
RoleRetrievalResult. This class provides the ability to pass back an
exception to the roles store. This exception does not mean that a
request should be failed but instead serves as a signal to the roles
store that missing roles should not be cached and neither should the
combined role if there are missing roles.
As part of this, the negative lookup cache was also changed from an
unbounded cache to a cache with a configurable limit.

PR #34290 made it impossible to use thread-context values to pass
authentication metadata out of a realm. The SAML realm used this
technique to allow the SamlAuthenticateAction to process the parsed
SAML token, and apply them to the access token that was generated.
This new method adds metadata to the AuthenticationResult itself, and
then the authentication service makes this result available on the
thread context.

ListenableFuture may run a listener on the same thread that called the

Since all calls to `ESLoggerFactory` outside of the logging package were
deprecated, it seemed like it'd simplify things to migrate all of the
deprecated calls and declare `ESLoggerFactory` to be package private.
This does that.
The "lookupUser" method on a realm facilitates the "run-as" and
"authorization_realms" features.
This commit allows a realm to be used for "lookup only", in which
case the "authenticate" method (and associated token methods) are
disabled.
It does this through the introduction of a new
"authentication.enabled" setting, which defaults to true.
Building automatons can be costly. For the most part we cache things
that use automatons so the cost is limited.
However:
- We don't (currently) do that everywhere (e.g. we don't cache role
mappings)
- It is sometimes necessary to clear some of those caches which can
cause significant CPU overhead and processing delays.
This commit introduces a new cache in the Automatons class to avoid
unnecesarily recomputing automatons.
There may be values in the thread context that ought to be preseved
for later use, even if one or more realms perform asynchronous
authentication.
This commit changes the AuthenticationService to wrap the potentially
asynchronous calls in a ContextPreservingActionListener that retains
the original thread context for the authentication.
The Security plugin authorizes actions on indices. Authorization
happens on a per index/alias basis. Therefore a request with a
Multi Index Expression (containing wildcards) has to be
first evaluated in the authorization layer, before the request is
handled. For authorization purposes, wildcards in expressions will
only be expanded to indices/aliases that are visible by the authenticated
user. However, this "constrained" evaluation has to be compatible with
the expression evaluation that a cluster without the Security plugin
would do. Therefore any change in the evaluation logic
in any of these sites has to be mirrored in the other site.
This commit mirrors the changes in core from #33518 that allowed
for Multi Index Expression in the Get Alias API, loosely speaking.
When the cluster.routing.allocation.disk.watermark.flood_stage watermark
is breached, DiskThresholdMonitor marks the indices as read-only. This
failed when x-pack security was present as system user does not have the privilege
for update settings action("indices:admin/settings/update").
This commit adds the required privilege for the system user. Also added missing
debug logs when access is denied to help future debugging.
An assert statement is added to catch any missed privileges required for
system user.
Closes#33119
In SessionFactoryLoadBalancingTests#testRoundRobinWithFailures()
we kill ldap servers randomly and immediately bind to that port
connecting to mock server socket. This is done to avoid someone else
listening to this port. As the creation of mock socket and binding to the
port is immediate, sometimes the earlier socket would be in TIME_WAIT state
thereby having problems with either bind or connect.
This commit sets the SO_REUSEADDR explicitly to true and also sets
the linger on time to 0(as we are not writing any data) so as to
allow re-use of the port and close immediately.
Note: I could not find other places where this might be problematic
but looking at test runs and netstat output I do see lot of sockets
in TIME_WAIT. If we find that this needs to be addressed we can
wrap ServerSocketFactory to set these options and use that with in
memory ldap server configuration during tests.

The `DnRoleMapper` class is used to map distinguished names of groups
and users to role names. This mapper builds in an internal map that
maps from a `com.unboundid.ldap.sdk.DN` to a `Set<String>`. In cases
where a lot of distinct DNs are mapped to roles, this can consume quite
a bit of memory. The majority of the memory is consumed by the DN
object. For example, a 94 character DN that has 9 relative DNs (RDN)
will retain 4KB of memory, whereas the String itself consumes less than
250 bytes.
In order to reduce memory usage, we can map from a normalized DN string
to a List of roles. The normalized string is actually how the DN class
determines equality with another DN and we can drop the overhead of
needing to keep all of the other objects in memory. Additionally the
use of a List provides memory savings as each HashSet is backed by a
HashMap, which consumes a great deal more memory than an appropriately
sized ArrayList. The uniqueness we get from a Set is maintained by
first building a set when parsing the file and then converting to a
list upon completion.
Closes#34237
Today we reverse the initial order of the nested documents when we
index them in order to ensure that parents documents appear after
their children. This means that a query will always match nested documents
in the reverse order of their offsets in the source document.
Reversing all documents is not needed so this change ensures that parents
documents appear after their children without modifying the initial order
in each nested level. This allows to match children in the order of their
appearance in the source document which is a requirement to efficiently
implement #33587. Old indices created before this change will continue
to reverse the order of nested documents to ensure backwark compatibility.
In prior versions of Java, we expected to see a SSLHandshakeException
when starting a handshake with a server that we do not trust. In JDK11,
the exception has changed to a SSLException, which
SSLHandshakeException extends. This is most likely a side effect of the
TLS 1.3 changes in JDK11. This change updates the test to catch the
SSLException instead of the SSLHandshakeException and enables the test
to work on JDK8 through JDK11.

`Settings` is no longer required to get a `Logger` and we went to quite
a bit of effort to pass it to the `Logger` getters. This removes the
`Settings` from all of the logger fetches in security and x-pack:core.
Security previously hardcoded a default scroll keepalive of 10 seconds,
but in some cases this is not enough time as there can be network
issues or overloading of host machines. After this change, security
will now use the default keepalive timeout, which is controllable using
a setting and the default value is 5 minutes.
In order to optimize the use of the role cache, when the roles.yml file
is reloaded we now calculate the names of removed, changed, and added
roles so that they may be passed to any listeners. This allows a
listener to selectively clear cache for only the roles that have been
modified. The CompositeRolesStore has been adapted to do exactly that
so that we limit the need to reload roles from sources such as the

This change cleans up "unused variable" warnings. There are several cases were we
most likely want to suppress the warnings (especially in the client documentation test
where the snippets contain many unused variables). In a lot of cases the unused
variables can just be deleted though.
* TESTS: Stabilize Renegotiation Test
* The second `startHandshake` is not synchronous and a read of only
50ms may fail to trigger it entirely (the failure can be reproduced reliably by setting the socket timeout to `1`)
=> fixed by retrying the read until the handshake finishes (a longer timeout would've worked too,
but retrying seemed more stable)
* Closes#33772
This commit introduces an AbstractSimpleSecurityTransportTestCase for
security transports. This classes provides transport tests that are
specific for security transports. Additionally, it fixes the tests referenced in
#33285.
SearchGroupsResolverInMemoryTests was (rarely) fail in a way that
suggests that the server-side delay (100ms) was not enough to trigger
the client-side timeout (5ms).
The server side delay has been increased to try and overcome this.
Resolves: #32913
This change adds the OneStatementPerLineCheck to our checkstyle precommit
checks. This rule restricts the number of statements per line to one. The
resoning behind this is that it is very difficult to read multiple statements on
one line. People seem to mostly use it in short lambdas and switch statements in
our code base, but just going through the changes already uncovered some actual
problems in randomization in test code, so I think its worth it.
Changes the format of log events in the audit logfile.
It also changes the filename suffix from `_access` to `_audit`.
The new entry format is consistent with Elastic Common Schema.
Entries are formatted as JSON with no nested objects and field
names have a dotted syntax. Moreover, log entries themselves
are not spaced by commas and there is exactly one entry per line.
In addition, entry fields are ordered, unlike a typical JSON doc,
such that a human would not strain his eyes over jumbled
fields from one line to the other; the order is defined in the log4j2
properties file.
The implementation utilizes the log4j2's `StringMapMessage`.
This means that the application builds the log event as a map
and the log4j logic (the appender's layout) handle the format
internally. The layout, such as the set of printed fields and their
order, can be changed at runtime without restarting the node.
We have a Kerberos setting to remove realm part from the user
principal name (remove_realm_name). If this is true then
the realm name is removed to form username but in the process,
the realm name is lost. For scenarios like Kerberos cross-realm
authentication, one could make use of the realm name to determine
role mapping for users coming from different realms.
This commit adds user metadata for kerberos_realm and
kerberos_user_principal_name.
We have a test dependency on Apache Mina when using SimpleKdcServer
for testing Kerberos. When checking for LDAP backend connectivity,
the code checks for deadlocks which require additional security
permissions accessClassInPackage.sun.reflect. As this is only for
test and we do not want to add security permissions to production,
this commit moves these tests and related classes to
x-pack evil-tests where they can run with security manager disabled.
The plan is to handle the security manager exception in the upstream issue
DIRMINA-1093
and then once the release is available to run these tests with security
manager enabled.
Closes#32739
This change removes the wrapping of the created field in the put user
response. The created field was added as a top level field in #32332,
while also still being wrapped within the `user` object of the
response. Since the value is available in both formats in 6.x, we can
remove the wrapped version for 7.0.
Today we use a special unicast hosts provider, the `MockUncasedHostsProvider`,
in many integration tests, to deal with the dynamic nature of the allocation of
ports to nodes. However #33241 allows us to use file-based discovery to achieve
the same goal, so the special test-only `MockUncasedHostsProvider` is no longer
required.
This change removes `MockUncasedHostProvider` and replaces it with file-based
discovery in tests based on `EsIntegTestCase`.
This change addresses some issues regarding thread safety around
updates and method calls on the XPackLicenseState object. There exists
a possibility that there could be a concurrent update to the
XPackLicenseState when there is a scheduled check to see if the license
is expired and a cluster state update. In order to address this, the
update method now has a synchronized block where member variables are
updated. Each method that reads these variables is now also
synchronized.
Along with the above change, there was a consistency issue around
security calls to the license state. The majority of security checks
make two calls to the license state, which could result in incorrect
behavior due to the checks being made against different license states.
The majority of this behavior was introduced for 6.3 with the inclusion
of x-pack in the default distribution. In order to resolve the majority
of these cases, the `isSecurityEnabled` method is no longer public and
the logic is also included in individual methods about security such as
`isAuthAllowed`. There were a few cases where this did not remove
multiple calls on the license state, so a new method has been added
which creates a copy of the current license state that will not change.
Callers can use this copy of the license state to make decisions based
on a consistent view of the license state.
In some cases we want to deprecate a setting, and then automatically
upgrade uses of that setting to a replacement setting. This commit adds
infrastructure for this so that we can upgrade settings when recovering
the cluster state, as well as when such settings are dynamically applied
on cluster update settings requests. This commit only focuses on cluster
settings, index settings can build on this infrastructure in a
follow-up.
This commit ensures that we bootstrap a new history_uuid when force
allocating a stale primary. A stale primary should never be the source
of an operation-based recovery to another shard which exists before the
forced-allocation.
Closes#26712
Today when checking settings dependencies, we do not check if fallback
settings are present. This means, for example, that if
cluster.remote.*.seeds falls back to search.remote.*.seeds, and
cluster.remote.*.skip_unavailable and search.remote.*.skip_unavailable
depend on cluster.remote.*.seeds, and we have set search.remote.*.seeds
and search.remote.*.skip_unavailable, then validation will fail because
it is expected that cluster.ermote.*.seeds is set here. This commit
addresses this by also checking fallback settings when validating
dependencies. To do this, we adjust the settings exist method to also
check for fallback settings, a case that it was not handling previously.
The main benefit of the upgrade for users is the search optimization for top scored documents when the total hit count is not needed. However this optimization is not activated in this change, there is another issue opened to discuss how it should be integrated smoothly.
Some comments about the change:
* Tests that can produce negative scores have been adapted but we need to forbid them completely: #33309Closes#32899
With features like CCR building on the CCS infrastructure, the settings
prefix search.remote makes less sense as the namespace for these remote
cluster settings than does a more general namespace like
cluster.remote. This commit replaces these settings with cluster.remote
with a fallback to the deprecated settings search.remote.
This commit is related to #32517. It allows an "server_name"
attribute on a DiscoveryNode to be propagated to the server using
the TLS SNI extentsion. This functionality is only implemented for
the netty security transport.
This commit adds a security client to the high level rest client, which
includes an implementation for the put user api. As part of these
changes, a new request and response class have been added that are
specific to the high level rest client. One change here is that the response
was previously wrapped inside a user object. The plan is to remove this
wrapping and this PR adds an unwrapped response outside of the user
object so we can remove the user object later on.

Solves all of the xpack line length suppressions and then merges the
remainder of the xpack checkstyle_suppressions.xml file into the core
checkstyle_suppressions.xml file. At this point that just means the
antlr generated files for sql.
It also adds an exclusion to the line length tests for javadocs that
are just a URL. We have one such javadoc and breaking up the line would
make the link difficult to use.
With the introduction of the default distribution, it means that by
default the query cache is wrapped in the security implementation of the
query cache. This cache does not allow caching if the request does not
carry indices permissions. Yet, this will not happen if authorization is
not allowed, which it is not by default. This means that with the
introduction of the default distribution, query caching was disabled by
default! This commit addresses this by checking if authorization is
allowed and if not, delegating to the default indices query
cache. Otherwise, we proceed as before with security. Additionally, we
clear the cache on license state changes.
* Fixes SecurityIntegTestCase so it always adds at least one alias
`SecurityIntegTestCase.createIndicesWithRandomAliases` could randomly
fail because its not gauranteed that the randomness of which aliases to
add to the `IndicesAliasesRequestBuilder` would always select at least
one alias to add. This change fixes the problem by keeping track of
whether we have added an alias to teh request and forcing the last
alias to be added if no other aliases have been added so far.
Closes#30098
Closes #33123e
* Addresses review comments
Authorization Realms allow an authenticating realm to delegate the task
of constructing a User object (with name, roles, etc) to one or more
other realms.
E.g. A client could authenticate using PKI, but then delegate to an LDAP
realm. The LDAP realm performs a "lookup" by principal, and then does
regular role-mapping from the discovered user.
This commit includes:
- authorization_realm support in the pki, ldap, saml & kerberos realms
- docs for authorization_realms
- checks that there are no "authorization chains"
(whereby "realm-a" delegates to "realm-b", but "realm-b" delegates to "realm-c")
Authorization realms is a platinum feature.
This PR removes the deprecated `Custom` class in `IndexMetaData`, in favor
of a `Map<String, DiffableStringMap>` that is used to store custom index
metadata. As part of this, there is now no way to set this metadata in a
template or create index request (since it's only set by plugins, or dedicated
REST endpoints).
The `Map<String, DiffableStringMap>` is intended to be a namespaced `Map<String,
String>` (`DiffableStringMap` implements `Map<String, String>`, so the signature
is more like `Map<String, Map<String, String>>`). This is so we can do things
like:
``` java
Map<String, String> ccrMeta = indexMetaData.getCustom("ccr");
```
And then have complete control over the metadata. This also means any
plugin/feature that uses this has to manage its own BWC, as the map is just
serialized as a map. It also means that if metadata is put in the map that isn't
used (for instance, if a plugin were removed), it causes no failures the way
an unregistered `Setting` would.
The reason I use a custom `DiffableStringMap` here rather than a plain
`Map<String, String>` is so the map can be diffed with previous cluster state
updates for serialization.

In #29623 we added `Request` object flavored requests to the low level
REST client and in #30315 we deprecated the old `performRequest`s. In a
long series of PRs I've changed all of the old style requests that I
could find with `grep`. In this PR I change all requests that I could
find by *removing* the deprecated methods. Since this is a non-trivial
change I do not include actually removing the deprecated requests. I'll
do that in a follow up. But this should be the last set of usage
removals before the actual deprecated method removal. Yay!
This commit removes the unused User class from the protocol project.
This class was originally moved into protocol in preparation for moving
more request and response classes, but given the change in direction
for the HLRC this is no longer needed. Additionally, this change also
changes the package name for the User object in x-pack/plugin/core to
its original name.
The new implementation is functional equivalent with the old, ant based one.
It parses task standard error to get the missing classes and violations in the same way.
I considered re-using ForbiddenApisCliTask but Gradle makes it hard to build inheritance with tasks that have task actions , since the order of the task actions can't be controlled.
This inheritance isn't dully desired either as the third party audit task is much more opinionated and we don't want to expose some of the configuration.
We could probably extract a common base class without any task actions, but probably more trouble than it's worth.
Closes#31715
This change adds support for the client credentials grant type to the
token api. The client credentials grant allows for a client to
authenticate with the authorization server and obtain a token to access
as itself. Per RFC 6749, a refresh token should not be included with
the access token and as such a refresh token is not issued when the
client credentials grant is used.
The addition of the client credentials grant will allow users
authenticated with mechanisms such as kerberos or PKI to obtain a token
that can be used for subsequent access.

Refactors the logic of authentication and lookup caching in

the single-inflight-request or positive caching.
This adds support for connecting to a remote cluster through
a tcp proxy. A remote cluster can configured with an additional
`search.remote.$clustername.proxy` setting. This proxy will be used
to connect to remote nodes for every node connection established.
We still try to sniff the remote clsuter and connect to nodes directly
through the proxy which has to support some kind of routing to these nodes.
Yet, this routing mechanism requires the handshake request to include some
kind of information where to route to which is not yet implemented. The effort
to use the hostname and an optional node attribute for routing is tracked
in #32517Closes#31840
Changes to split tests for keytab file test cases instead of
randomized testing for testing branches in the code in the
same test.
On windows platform, for keytab file permission test, we
required additional security permissions for the test
framework. As this was the only test that required those
permissions, skipping that test on windows platform.
The same scenario gets tested in *nix environments.
Closes#32768
This reworks how we configure the `shadow` plugin in the build. The major
change is that we no longer bundle dependencies in the `compile` configuration,
instead we bundle dependencies in the new `bundle` configuration. This feels
more right because it is a little more "opt in" rather than "opt out" and the
name of the `bundle` configuration is a little more obvious.
As an neat side effect of this, the `runtimeElements` configuration used when
one project depends on another now contains exactly the dependencies needed
to run the project so you no longer need to reference projects that use the
shadow plugin like this:
```
testCompile project(path: ':client:rest-high-level', configuration: 'shadow')
```
You can instead use the much more normal:
```
testCompile "org.elasticsearch.client:elasticsearch-rest-high-level-client:${version}"
```
When the application privileges feature was backported to 6.x/6.4 the
BWC version checks on the backport were updated to 6.4.0, but master
was not updated.
This commit updates all relevant version checks, and adds tests.
This is a followup to #31886. After that commit the
TransportConnectionListener had to be propogated to both the
Transport and the ConnectionManager. This commit moves that listener
to completely live in the ConnectionManager. The request and response
related methods are moved to a TransportMessageListener. That listener
continues to live in the Transport class.

* Changed `InetAddress` type to `String` for that higher up the stack
* Passed down `Supplier<DiscoveryNode>` instead of outright `DiscoveryNode` from `RemoteClusterAware#buildRemoteClustersSeeds` on to lazy resolve DNS when the `DiscoveryNode` is actually used (could've also passed down the value of `clusterName = REMOTE_CLUSTERS_SEEDS.getNamespace(concreteSetting)` together with the `List<String>` of hosts, but this route seemed to introduce less duplication and resulted in a significantly smaller changeset).

This commit removes the put privilege API in favor of having a single API to
create and update privileges. If we see the need to have an API like this in
the future we can always add it back.
This change cleans up some methods in the CharArrays class from x-pack, which
includes the unification of char[] to utf8 and utf8 to char[] conversions that
intentionally do not use strings. There was previously an implementation in
x-pack and in the reloading of secure settings. The method from the reloading
of secure settings was adopted as it handled more scenarios related to the
backing byte and char buffers that were used to perform the conversions. The
cleaned up class is moved into libs/core to allow it to be used by requests
that will be migrated to the high level rest client.

This removes custom Response classes that extend `AcknowledgedResponse` and do nothing, these classes are not needed and we can directly use the non-abstract super-class instead.
While this appears to be a large PR, no code has actually changed, only class names have been changed and entire classes removed.
This change removes the PasswordHashingBootstrapCheck and replaces it
with validation on the setting itself. This ensures we always get a
valid value from the setting when it is used.
This change moves the validation for values of usernames and passwords
from the request to the transport action. This is done to prevent
the need to move more classes into protocol once we add this API to the
high level rest client. Additionally, this resolves an issue where
validation depends on settings and we always pass empty settings
instead of the actual settings.

All Unit tests in this module are muted in FIPS 140 JVMs and
as such the CI run fails. This commit disables test task for the
module in a FIPS JVM and reverts adding a dummy test in
4cbcc1.
This commit adds missing debug log statements for exceptions
that occur during ticket validation. I thought these
get logged somewhere else in authentication chain
but even after enabling trace logs I could not see them
logged. As the Kerberos exception messages are cryptic
adding full stack trace would help debugging faster.
This commit modifies the test to handle file permission
tests in windows/dos environments. The test requires access
to UserPrincipal and so have modified the plugin-security policy
to access user information.

The User class has been moved to the protocol project for upcoming work
to add more security APIs to the high level rest client. As part of
this change, the toString method no longer uses a custom output method
from MetadataUtils and instead just relies on Java's toString
implementation.
This commit adds licensing enforcement for FIPS mode through the use of
a bootstrap check, a node join validator, and a check in the license
service. The work done here is based on the current implementation of
the TLS enforcement with a production license.
The bootstrap check is always enforced since we need to enforce the
licensing and this is the best option to do so at the present time.
First, some background: we have 15 different methods to get a logger in
Elasticsearch but they can be broken down into three broad categories
based on what information is provided when building the logger.
Just a class like:
```
private static final Logger logger = ESLoggerFactory.getLogger(ActionModule.class);
```
or:
```
protected final Logger logger = Loggers.getLogger(getClass());
```
The class and settings:
```
this.logger = Loggers.getLogger(getClass(), settings);
```
Or more information like:
```
Loggers.getLogger("index.store.deletes", settings, shardId)
```
The goal of the "class and settings" variant is to attach the node name
to the logger. Because we don't always have the settings available, we
often use the "just a class" variant and get loggers without node names
attached. There isn't any real consistency here. Some loggers get the
node name because it is convenient and some do not.
This change makes the node name available to all loggers all the time.
Almost. There are some caveats are testing that I'll get to. But in
*production* code the node name is node available to all loggers. This
means we can stop using the "class and settings" variants to fetch
loggers which was the real goal here, but a pleasant side effect is that
the ndoe name is now consitent on every log line and optional by editing
the logging pattern. This is all powered by setting the node name
statically on a logging formatter very early in initialization.
Now to tests: tests can't set the node name statically because
subclasses of `ESIntegTestCase` run many nodes in the same jvm, even in
the same class loader. Also, lots of tests don't run with a real node so
they don't *have* a node name at all. To support multiple nodes in the
same JVM tests suss out the node name from the thread name which works
surprisingly well and easy to test in a nice way. For those threads
that are not part of an `ESIntegTestCase` node we stick whatever useful
information we can get form the thread name in the place of the node
name. This allows us to keep the logger format consistent.
This commit adds an assumption to two test methods in
SSLTrustRestrictionsTests that we are not on JDK 11 as the tests
currently fail there.
Relates #29989
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.
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.
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
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
Closes#29820Closes#31559
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.
Closes#30243
* 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.
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.
This is related to #32122. A number of things changed related to adding
TLS 1.3 support in JDK11. Some exception messages and other SSLEngine
behavior changed. This commit fixes assertions on exception messages.
Additionally it identifies two bugs related to how the SSLDriver behaves
in regards to JDK11 changes. Finally, it mutes a tests until correct
behavior can be identified. There is another open issue for that muted
test (#32144).
