The Get Users API also returns users form the restricted realm or built-in users,
as we call them in our docs. One can also change the passwords of built-in
users with the Change Password API
Since 7.3, it's possible to explicitly configure the SAML realm to
be used in Kibana's configuration. This in turn, eliminates the need
of properly setting `xpack.security.public.*` settings in Kibana
and largely simplifies relevant documentation.
This also changes `xpack.security.authProviders` to
`xpack.security.authc.providers` as the former was deprecated in
favor of the latter in 7.3 in Kibana
* Add Snapshot Lifecycle Management (#43934)
* Add SnapshotLifecycleService and related CRUD APIs
This commit adds `SnapshotLifecycleService` as a new service under the ilm
plugin. This service handles snapshot lifecycle policies by scheduling based on
the policies defined schedule.
This also includes the get, put, and delete APIs for these policies

* Make scheduledJobIds return an immutable set
* Use Object.equals for SnapshotLifecyclePolicy
* Remove unneeded TODO
* Implement ToXContentFragment on SnapshotLifecyclePolicyItem
* Copy contents of the scheduledJobIds
* Handle snapshot lifecycle policy updates and deletions (#40062)
(Note this is a PR against the `snapshot-lifecycle-management` feature branch)
This adds logic to `SnapshotLifecycleService` to handle updates and deletes for
snapshot policies. Policies with incremented versions have the old policy
cancelled and the new one scheduled. Deleted policies have their schedules
cancelled when they are no longer present in the cluster state metadata.

* Take a snapshot for the policy when the SLM policy is triggered (#40383)
(This is a PR for the `snapshot-lifecycle-management` branch)
This commit fills in `SnapshotLifecycleTask` to actually perform the
snapshotting when the policy is triggered. Currently there is no handling of the
results (other than logging) as that will be added in subsequent work.
This also adds unit tests and an integration test that schedules a policy and
ensures that a snapshot is correctly taken.
Relates to #38461
* Record most recent snapshot policy success/failure (#40619)
Keeping a record of the results of the successes and failures will aid
troubleshooting of policies and make users more confident that their
snapshots are being taken as expected.
This is the first step toward writing history in a more permanent
fashion.
* Validate snapshot lifecycle policies (#40654)
(This is a PR against the `snapshot-lifecycle-management` branch)
With the commit, we now validate the content of snapshot lifecycle policies when
the policy is being created or updated. This checks for the validity of the id,
name, schedule, and repository. Additionally, cluster state is checked to ensure
that the repository exists prior to the lifecycle being added to the cluster
state.

* Hook SLM into ILM's start and stop APIs (#40871)
(This pull request is for the `snapshot-lifecycle-management` branch)
This change allows the existing `/_ilm/stop` and `/_ilm/start` APIs to also
manage snapshot lifecycle scheduling. When ILM is stopped all scheduled jobs are
cancelled.

* Add tests for SnapshotLifecyclePolicyItem (#40912)
Adds serialization tests for SnapshotLifecyclePolicyItem.
* Fix improper import in build.gradle after master merge
* Add human readable version of modified date for snapshot lifecycle policy (#41035)
* Add human readable version of modified date for snapshot lifecycle policy
This small change changes it from:
```
...
"modified_date": 1554843903242,
...
```
To
```
...
"modified_date" : "2019-04-09T21:05:03.242Z",
"modified_date_millis" : 1554843903242,
...
```
Including the `"modified_date"` field when the `?human` field is used.

* Fix test
* Add API to execute SLM policy on demand (#41038)
This commit adds the ability to perform a snapshot on demand for a policy. This
can be useful to take a snapshot immediately prior to performing some sort of
maintenance.
```json
PUT /_ilm/snapshot/<policy>/_execute
```
And it returns the response with the generated snapshot name:
```json
{
"snapshot_name" : "production-snap-2019.04.09-rfyv3j9qreixkdbnfuw0ug"
}
```
Note that this does not allow waiting for the snapshot, and the snapshot could
still fail. It *does* record this information into the cluster state similar to
a regularly trigged SLM job.

* Add next_execution to SLM policy metadata (#41221)
* Add next_execution to SLM policy metadata
This adds the next time a snapshot lifecycle policy will be executed when
retriving a policy's metadata, for example:
```json

This commit changes the endpoint for snapshot lifecycle management from:
```
GET /_ilm/snapshot/<policy>

to:
```
GET /_slm/policy/<policy>
```
It mimics the ILM path only using `slm` instead of `ilm`.

* Add `manage_slm` and `read_slm` roles (#41607)
* Add `manage_slm` and `read_slm` roles
This adds two more built in roles -
`manage_slm` which has permission to perform any of the SLM actions, as well as
stopping, starting, and retrieving the operation status of ILM.
`read_slm` which has permission to retrieve snapshot lifecycle policies as well
as retrieving the operation status of ILM.
Relates to #38461
* Add execute to the test
* Fix ilm -> slm typo in test
* Record SLM history into an index (#41707)
It is useful to have a record of the actions that Snapshot Lifecycle
Management takes, especially for the purposes of alerting when a
snapshot fails or has not been taken successfully for a certain amount of
time.
This adds the infrastructure to record SLM actions into an index that
can be queried at leisure, along with a lifecycle policy so that this
history does not grow without bound.
Additionally,
SLM automatically setting up an index + lifecycle policy leads to
`index_lifecycle` custom metadata in the cluster state, which some of
the ML tests don't know how to deal with due to setting up custom
`NamedXContentRegistry`s. Watcher would cause the same problem, but it
is already disabled (for the same reason).

This change makes the process of verifying the signature of
official plugins FIPS 140 compliant by defaulting to use the
BouncyCastle FIPS provider and adding a dependency to bcpg-fips
that implement parts of openPGP in a FIPS compliant manner.
In already FIPS 140 enabled environments that use the
BouncyCastle FIPS provider, the bcfips dependency is redundant
but doesn't cause an issue as it will be added only in the classpath
of the cli-tools
This is a backport of #44224
This commit documents the backup and restore of a cluster's
security configuration.
It is not possible to only backup (or only restore) security
configuration, independent to the rest of the cluster's conf,
so this describes how a full configuration backup&restore
will include security as well. Moreover, it explains how part
of the security conf data resides on the special .security
index and how to backup that using regular data snapshot API.

This adds the ability to execute an action for each element that occurs
in an array, for example you could sent a dedicated slack action for
each search hit returned from a search.
There is also a limit for the number of actions executed, which is
hardcoded to 100 right now, to prevent having watches run forever.
The watch history logs each action result and the total number of actions
the were executed.

Add the "Authorization" section to the API key API docs.
These APIs require The new manage_api_key cluster privilege.
Relates: #43865
Backport of: #43811
This commit changes the `role_descriptors` field from required
to optional when creating API key. The default behavior in .NET ES
client is to omit properties with `null` value requiring additional
workarounds. The behavior for the API does not change.
Field names (`id`, `name`) in the invalidate api keys API documentation have been
corrected where they were wrong.
Closes#42053
Kibana wants to create access_token/refresh_token pair using Token
management APIs in exchange for kerberos tickets. `client_credentials`
grant_type requires every user to have `cluster:admin/xpack/security/token/create`
cluster privilege.
This commit introduces `_kerberos` grant_type for generating `access_token`
and `refresh_token` in exchange for a valid base64 encoded kerberos ticket.
In addition, `kibana_user` role now has cluster privilege to create tokens.
This allows Kibana to create access_token/refresh_token pair in exchange for
kerberos tickets.
Note:
The lifetime from the kerberos ticket is not used in ES and so even after it expires
the access_token/refresh_token pair will be valid. Care must be taken to invalidate
such tokens using token management APIs if required.
Closes#41943
This commit adds a configuration guide for the newly introduced

Backport of #41423 and #42555
The Has Privileges API allows to tap into the authorization process, to validate
privileges without actually running the operations to be authorized. This commit
fixes a bug, in which the Has Privilege API returned spurious results when checking
for index privileges over restricted indices (currently .security, .security-6,
.security-7). The actual authorization process is not affected by the bug.
This adds a new `role_templates` field to role mappings that is an
alternative to the existing roles field.
These templates are evaluated at runtime to determine which roles should be
granted to a user.
For example, it is possible to specify:
"role_templates": [
{ "template":{ "source": "_user_{{username}}" } }
]
which would mean that every user is assigned to their own role based on
their username.
You may not specify both roles and role_templates in the same role
mapping.
This commit adds support for templates to the role mapping API, the role
mapping engine, the Java high level rest client, and Elasticsearch
documentation.
Due to the lack of caching in our role mapping store, it is currently
inefficient to use a large number of templated role mappings. This will be
addressed in a future change.
