This commit updates the default ciphers and TLS protocols that are used
when the runtime JDK supports them. New cipher support has been
introduced in JDK 11 and 12 along with performance fixes for AES GCM.
The ciphers are ordered with PFS ciphers being most preferred, then
AEAD ciphers, and finally those with mainstream hardware support. When
available stronger encryption is preferred for a given cipher.
This is a backport of #41385 and #41808. There are known JDK bugs with
TLSv1.3 that have been fixed in various versions. These are:
1. The JDK's bundled HttpsServer will endless loop under JDK11 and JDK
12.0 (Fixed in 12.0.1) based on the way the Apache HttpClient performs
a close (half close).
2. In all versions of JDK 11 and 12, the HttpsServer will endless loop
when certificates are not trusted or another handshake error occurs. An
email has been sent to the openjdk security-dev list and #38646 is open
to track this.
3. In JDK 11.0.2 and prior there is a race condition with session
resumption that leads to handshake errors when multiple concurrent
handshakes are going on between the same client and server. This bug
does not appear when client authentication is in use. This is
JDK-8213202, which was fixed in 11.0.3 and 12.0.
4. In JDK 11.0.2 and prior there is a bug where resumed TLS sessions do
not retain peer certificate information. This is JDK-8212885.
The way these issues are addressed is that the current java version is
checked and used to determine the supported protocols for tests that
provoke these issues.
By default, in integ tests we wait for the standalone cluster to start
by using the ant Get task to retrieve the cluster health endpoint.
However the ant task has no facilities for customising the trusted
CAs for a https resource, so if the integ test cluster has TLS enabled
on the http interface (using a custom CA) we need a separate utility
for that purpose.
Backport of: #40573
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`).

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.

The java yaml test runner supports sending request headers, yet not all clients support headers. This commit makes sure that we enforce adding a skip section with feature "headers" whenever headers are used in a do section as part of a test. That decreases the chance for new tests to break client builds due to the missing skip section.
Closes#34650
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}"
```
This commit does the following:
- renames index-lifecycle plugin to ilm
- modifies the endpoints to ilm instead of index_lifecycle
- drops _xpack from the endpoints
- drops a few duplicate endpoints
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 removes the RequestBuilder generic type from Action. It was
needed to be used by the newRequest method, which in turn was used by
client.prepareExecute. Both of these methods are now removed, along with
the existing users of prepareExecute constructing the appropriate
builder directly.
This commit makes x-pack a module and adds it to the default
distrubtion. It also creates distributions for zip, tar, deb and rpm
which contain only oss code.
