Previously multiple extensions could be provided, however, this can lead
to confusion with on-disk scripts (ie, "foo.js" and "foo.javascript")
having different content. Only a single extension is now supported.
The only language currently supporting multiple extensions was the
Javascript engine ("js" and "javascript"). It now only supports the
`.js` extension.
Relates to #10598
This removes all the mentions of the sandbox from the script engine
services and permissions model. This means that the following settings
are no longer supported:
```yaml
script.inline: sandbox
script.stored: sandbox
```
Instead, only a `true` or `false` value can be specified.
Since this would otherwise break the default-allow parameter for
languages like expressions, painless, and mustache, all script engines
have been updated to have individual settings, for instance:
```yaml
script.engine.groovy.inline: true
```
Would enable all inline scripts for groovy. (they can still be
overridden on a per-operation basis).
Expressions, Painless, and Mustache all default to `true` for inline,
file, and stored scripts to preserve the old scripting behavior.
Resolves#17114
This makes all numeric fields including `date`, `ip` and `token_count` use
points instead of the inverted index as a lookup structure. This is expected
to perform worse for exact queries, but faster for range queries. It also
requires less storage.
Notes about how the change works:
- Numeric mappers have been split into a legacy version that is essentially
the current mapper, and a new version that uses points, eg.
LegacyDateFieldMapper and DateFieldMapper.
- Since new and old fields have the same names, the decision about which one
to use is made based on the index creation version.
- If you try to force using a legacy field on a new index or a field that uses
points on an old index, you will get an exception.
- IP addresses now support IPv6 via Lucene's InetAddressPoint and store them
in SORTED_SET doc values using the same encoding (fixed length of 16 bytes
and sortable).
- The internal MappedFieldType that is stored by the new mappers does not have
any of the points-related properties set. Instead, it keeps setting the index
options when parsing the `index` property of mappings and does
`if (fieldType.indexOptions() != IndexOptions.NONE) { // add point field }`
when parsing documents.
Known issues that won't fix:
- You can't use numeric fields in significant terms aggregations anymore since
this requires document frequencies, which points do not record.
- Term queries on numeric fields will now return constant scores instead of
giving better scores to the rare values.
Known issues that we could work around (in follow-up PRs, this one is too large
already):
- Range queries on `ip` addresses only work if both the lower and upper bounds
are inclusive (exclusive bounds are not exposed in Lucene). We could either
decide to implement it, or drop range support entirely and tell users to
query subnets using the CIDR notation instead.
- Since IP addresses now use a different representation for doc values,
aggregations will fail when running a terms aggregation on an ip field on a
list of indices that contains both pre-5.0 and 5.0 indices.
- The ip range aggregation does not work on the new ip field. We need to either
implement range aggs for SORTED_SET doc values or drop support for ip ranges
and tell users to use filters instead. #17700Closes#16751Closes#17007Closes#11513
In both cases, what elasticsearch is really interested in is whether the field
is an analyzed string field. So it can just check `tokenized()` instead.
`text` fields will have fielddata disabled by default. Fielddata can still be
enabled on an existing index by setting `fielddata=true` in the mappings.
This commit enableds strict settings validation on node startup. All settings
passed to elasticsearch either through system properties, yaml files or any other
way to pass settings must be registered and valid. Settings that are unknown ie. due to
typos or due to deprecation or removal will cause the node to NOT start up. Plugins
have to declare all their settings on the `SettingsModule#registerSetting` and settings for
plugins that are not installed must be removed.
This commit also removes the ability to specify the nodes name via `-Des.name` or just `name` in the
configuration files. The node name must be prefixed with the node prexif like `node.name: Boom`. Left over
usage of `name` will also cause startup to fail.
This commit method renames the ScriptEngineService interface methods
types, extensions, and sandboxed to getTypes, getExtensions, and
isSandboxed, respectively.
This commit converts the script mode settings to the new settings
infrastructure. This is a major refactoring of the handling of script
mode settings. This refactoring is necessary because these settings are
determined at runtime based on the registered script engines and the
registered script contexts.
The rest test framework, because it used to be tightly integrated with
ESIntegTestCase, currently expects the addresses for the test cluster to
be passed using the transport protocol port. However, it only uses this
to then find the http address.
This change makes ESRestTestCase extend from ESTestCase instead of
ESIntegTestCase, and changes the sysprop used to tests.rest.cluster,
which now takes the http address.

Site plugins used to be used for things like kibana and marvel, but
there is no longer a need since kibana (and marvel as a kibana plugin)
uses node.js. This change removes site plugins, as well as the flag for
jvm plugins. Now all plugins are jvm plugins.
Since 2.2 we run all scripts with minimal privileges, similar to applets in your browser.
The problem is, they have unrestricted access to other things they can muck with (ES, JDK, whatever).
So they can still easily do tons of bad things
This PR restricts what classes scripts can load via the classloader mechanism, to make life more difficult.
The "standard" list was populated from the old list used for the groovy sandbox: though
a few more were needed for tests to pass (java.lang.String, java.util.Iterator, nothing scary there).
Additionally, each scripting engine typically needs permissions to some runtime stuff.
That is the downside of this "good old classloader" approach, but I like the transparency and simplicity,
and I don't want to waste my time with any feature provided by the engine itself for this, I don't trust them.
This is not perfect and the engines are not perfect but you gotta start somewhere. For expert users that
need to tweak the permissions, we already support that via the standard java security configuration files, the
specification is simple, supports wildcards, etc (though we do not use them ourselves).
