Add documentation for #31238
- Add documentation for the req_authn_context_class_ref setting
- Add a section in SAML Guide regarding the use of SAML
Authentication Context.
* Add relevant documentation for FIPS 140-2 compliance.
* Introduce `fips_mode` setting.
* Discuss necessary configuration for FIPS 140-2
* Discuss introduced limitations by FIPS 140-2
* [DOCS] Add configurable password hashing docs
Adds documentation about the newly introduced configuration option
for setting the password hashing algorithm to be used for the users
cache and for storing credentials for the native and file realm.
This commit adds troubleshooting section for Kerberos.
Most of the times the problems seen are caused due to invalid
configurations like keytab missing principals or credentials
not up to date. Time synchronization is an important part for
Kerberos infrastructure and the time skew can cause problems.
To debug further documentation explains how to enable JAAS
Kerberos login module debugging and Kerberos/SPNEGO debugging
by setting JVM system properties.
This commit adds documentation for configuring Kerberos realm.
Configuring Kerberos realm documentation highlights important
terminology and requirements before creating Kerberos realm.
Most of the documentation is centered around configuration from
Elasticsearch rather than go deep into Kerberos implementation.
Kerberos realm settings are mentioned in the security settings
for Kerberos realm.
- Missing links to new IndexCaps API
- Incorrect security permissions on IndexCaps API
- GetJobs API must supply a job (or `_all`), omitting throws error
- Link to search/agg limitations from RollupSearch API
- Tweak URLs in quick reference
- Formatting of overview page
Previously, we were using a simple CRC32 for the IDs of rollup documents.
This is a very poor choice however, since 32bit IDs leads to collisions
between documents very quickly.
This commit moves Rollups over to a 128bit ID. The ID is a concatenation
of all the keys in the document (similar to the rolling CRC before),
hashed with 128bit Murmur3, then base64 encoded. Finally, the job
ID and a delimiter (`$`) are prepended to the ID.
This gurantees that there are 128bits per-job. 128bits should
essentially remove all chances of collisions, and the prepended
job ID means that _if_ there is a collision, it stays "within"
the job.
BWC notes:
We can only upgrade the ID scheme after we know there has been a good
checkpoint during indexing. We don't rely on a STARTED/STOPPED
status since we can't guarantee that resulted from a real checkpoint,
or other state. So we only upgrade the ID after we have reached
a checkpoint state during an active index run, and only after the
checkpoint has been confirmed.
Once a job has been upgraded and checkpointed, the version increments
and the new ID is used in the future. All new jobs use the
new ID from the start
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
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.

Remove references to the `platinum` image and add a self-generated trial
licence to the example for TLS on Docker.
Fixeselastic/elasticsearch-docker#176
This introduces a new GetRollupIndexCaps API which allows the user to retrieve rollup capabilities of a specific rollup index (or index pattern). This is distinct from the existing RollupCaps endpoint.
- Multiple jobs can be stored in multiple indices and point to a single target data index pattern (logstash-*). The existing API finds capabilities/config of all jobs matching that data index pattern.
- One rollup index can hold data from multiple jobs, targeting multiple data index patterns. This new API finds the capabilities based on the concrete rollup indices.
There is currently no way to see what user executed a watch. This commit
adds the decrypted username to each execution in the watch history, in a
new field "user".
Closes#31772
We can leverage the composite agg's new `missing_bucket` feature on
terms groupings. This means the aggregation criteria used in the indexer
will now return null buckets for missing keys.
Because all buckets are now returned (even if a key is null),
we can guarantee correct doc counts with
"combined" jobs (where a job rolls up multiple schemas). This was
previously impossible since composite would ignore documents that
didn't have _all_ the keys, meaning non-overlapping schemas would
cause composite to return no buckets.
Note: date_histo does not use `missing_bucket`, since a timestamp is
always required.
The docs have been adjusted to recommend a single, combined job. It
also makes reference to the previous issue to help users that are upgrading
(rather than just deleting the sections).
This change adds stats about forecasts, to the jobstats api as well as xpack/_usage. The following
information is collected:
_xpack/ml/anomaly_detectors/{jobid|_all}/_stats:
- total number of forecasts
- memory statistics (mean/min/max)
- runtime statistics
- record statistics
- counts by status
_xpack/usage
- collected by job status as well as overall (_all):
- total number of forecasts
- number of jobs that have at least 1 forecast
- memory, runtime, record statistics
- counts by status
Fixes#31395
This is related to #31325. There is currently information about the
get-trial-status api on the start-trial api documentation page. It also
has the incorrect route for that api. This commit removes that
information as the start-trial page properly links to a page providing
documenation about get-trial-status.
- All rollup pages should be marked as experimental instead of just
the top page
- While the job config docs state which aggregations are allowed, adding
a section which specifically details this in one place is more convenient
for the user
- Add a clarification that the DeleteJob API does not delete the rollup
data, just the rollup job.
Although elasticsearch-certutil generates PKCS#12
files which are usable as both keystore and truststore
this is uncommon in practice. Settle these expectations
for the users following our security guides.
This commit adds the ability to configure how a docvalue field should be
formatted, so that it would be possible eg. to return a date field
formatted as the number of milliseconds since Epoch.
Closes#27740
diskspace and creates a subfolder for storing data outside of Lucene
indexes, but as part of the ES data paths.
Details:
- tmp storage is managed and does not allow allocation if disk space is
below a threshold (5GB at the moment)
- tmp storage is supposed to be managed by the native component but in
case this fails cleanup is provided:
- on job close
- on process crash
- after node crash, on restart
- available space is re-checked for every forecast call (the native
component has to check again before writing)
Note: The 1st path that has enough space is chosen on job open (job
close/reopen triggers a new search)
This change adds a grok_pattern field to the GET categories API
output in ML. It's calculated using the regex and examples in the
categorization result, and applying a list of candidate Grok
patterns to the bits in between the tokens that are considered to
define the category.
This can currently be considered a prototype, as the Grok patterns
it produces are not optimal. However, enough people have said it
would be useful for it to be worthwhile exposing it as experimental
functionality for interested parties to try out.
This commit removes the unnecessary transport_client cluster permission
from the role that is used as an example in our documentation. This
permission is not needed to use cross cluster search.
This commit removes the http.enabled setting. While all real nodes (started with bin/elasticsearch) will always have an http binding, there are many tests that rely on the quickness of not actually needing to bind to 2 ports. For this case, the MockHttpTransport.TestPlugin provides a dummy http transport implementation which is used by default in ESIntegTestCase.
closes#12792
This is related to #30134. It modifies the start_trial action to require
an acknowledgement parameter in the rest request to actually start the
trial license. There are backwards compatibility issues as prior ES
versions did not support this parameter. To handle this, it is assumed
that a request coming from a node prior to 6.3 is acknowledged. And
attempts to write a non-acknowledged request to a prior to 6.3 node will
throw an exception.
Additionally this PR adds messages about the trial license the user is
generating.
