|
[float]
|
|
==== Cluster
|
|
|
|
[horizontal]
|
|
`all`:: All cluster administration operations, like snapshotting, node shutdown/restart, settings update or rerouting
|
|
`monitor`:: All cluster read-ony operations, like cluster health & state, hot threads, node info, node & cluster
|
|
stats, snapshot/restore status, pending cluster tasks
|
|
`manage_shield`:: All Shield related operations (currently only exposing an API for clearing the realm caches)
|
|
|
|
[[privileges-list-indices]]
|
|
|
|
[float]
|
|
==== Indices
|
|
|
|
[horizontal]
|
|
`all`:: Any action on an index
|
|
`manage`:: All `monitor` privileges plus index administration (aliases, analyze, cache clear, close, delete, exists,
|
|
flush, mapping, open, optimize, refresh, settings, search shards, templates, validate, warmers)
|
|
`monitor`": All actions, that are required for monitoring and read-only (recovery, segments info, index stats & status)
|
|
`data_access`:: A shortcut of all of the below privileges
|
|
`crud`:: A shortcut of `read` and `write` privileges
|
|
`read`:: Read only access to actions (count, explain, get, exists, mget, get indexed scripts, more like this, multi
|
|
percolate/search/termvector), percolate, scroll, clear_scroll, search, suggest, tv)
|
|
`search`:: All of `suggest` and executing an arbitrary search request (including multi-search API)
|
|
`get`:: Allow to execute a GET request for a single document or multiple documents via the multi-get API
|
|
`suggest`:: Allow to execute the `_suggest` API
|
|
`index`:: Privilege to index and update documents
|
|
`create_index`:: Privilege to create an index. A create index request may contain aliases to be added to the index once
|
|
created. In that case the request requires `manage_aliases` privilege as well, on both the index and the aliases names.
|
|
`manage_aliases`:: Privilege to add and remove aliases, as well as retrieve aliases information. Note that in order
|
|
to add an alias to an existing index, the `manage_aliases` privilege is required on the existing index as well as on the
|
|
alias name
|
|
`delete`:: Privilege to delete documents (includes delete by query)
|
|
`write`:: Privilege to index, update, delete, delete by query and bulk operations on documents, in addition to delete
|
|
and put indexed scripts

==== Action level privileges
|
|
|
|
Although rarely needed, it is also possible to define privileges on specific actions that are available in
|
|
Elasticsearch. This only applies to publicly available indices and cluster actions.

| `shield.ssl.ciphers` | `TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256`, `TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA`, `TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA` | Supported cipher suites can be found in Oracle's http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/security/SunProviders.html[Java Cryptography Architecture documentation]. Cipher suites using key lengths greater than 128 bits require the <<ciphers,JCE Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files>>.
|
|
| `shield.ssl.hostname_verification` | `true` | Performs hostname verification on transport connections. This is enabled by default to protect against man in the middle attacks.
|
|
| `shield.ssl.hostname_verification.resolve_name` | `true` | A reverse DNS lookup is necessary to find the hostname when connecting to a node via an IP Address. If this is disabled and IP addresses are used to connect to a node, the IP address must be specified as a `SubjectAlternativeName` when <<private-key,creating the certificate>> or hostname verification will fail. IP addresses will be used to connect to a node if they are used in following settings: `network.host`, `network.publish_host`, `transport.publish_host`, `transport.profiles.$PROFILE.publish_host`, `discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts`
|
|
| `shield.ssl.session.cache_size` | `1000` | Number of SSL Sessions to cache in order to support session resumption. Setting the value to `0` means there is no size limit.
|
|
| `shield.ssl.session.cache_timeout` | `24h` | The time after the creation of a SSL session before it times out. (uses the standard Elasticsearch {ref}/common-options.html#time-units[time units]).
|
|
| `shield.transport.ssl` | `false` | Set this parameter to `true` to enable SSL/TLS
|
|
| `shield.transport.ssl.client.auth` | `required` | Require client side certificates for transport protocol. Valid values are `required`, `optional`, and `no`. `required` forces a client to present a certificate, while `optional` requests a client certificate but the client is not required to present one.
|
|
| `shield.transport.filter.allow` | None | List of IP addresses to allow
|
|
| `shield.transport.filter.deny` | None | List of IP addresses to deny
|
|
| `shield.http.ssl` | `false` | Set this parameter to `true` to enable SSL/TLS
|
|
| `shield.http.ssl.client.auth` | `no` | Require client side certificates for HTTP. Valid values are `required`, `optional`, and `no`. `required` forces a client to present a certificate, while `optional` requests a client certificate but the client is not required to present one.
|
|
| `shield.http.filter.allow` | None | List of IP addresses to allow just for HTTP
|
|
| `shield.http.filter.deny` | None | List of IP addresses to deny just for HTTP

|
| `transport.profiles.$PROFILE.shield.truststore.path` | None | Absolute path to the truststore of this profile
|
|
| `transport.profiles.$PROFILE.shield.truststore.password` | None | Password to the truststore
|
|
| `transport.profiles.$PROFILE.shield.truststore.algorithm` | SunX509 | Format for the truststore
|
|
| `transport.profiles.$PROFILE.shield.keystore.path` | None | Absolute path to the keystore of this profile
|
|
| `transport.profiles.$PROFILE.shield.keystore.password` | None | Password to the keystore
|
|
| `transport.profiles.$PROFILE.shield.keystore.key_password` | Same value as `transport.profiles.$PROFILE.shield.keystore.password` | Password for the private key in the keystore
|
|
| `transport.profiles.$PROFILE.shield.keystore.algorithm` | SunX509 | Format for the keystore
|
|
| `transport.profiles.$PROFILE.shield.session.cache_size` | `1000` | Number of SSL Sessions to cache in order to support session resumption. Setting the value to `0` means there is no size limit.
|

|
|
| `transport.profiles.$PROFILE.shield.ssl.client.auth` | `required` | Require client side certificates. Valid values are `required`, `optional`, and `no`. `required` forces a client to present a certificate, while `optional` requests a client certificate but the client is not required to present one.

=== Files used by Shield
|
|
|
|
The Shield security plugin uses the following files:
|
|
|
|
* `CONFIG_DIR/shield/roles.yml` defines the roles in use on the cluster (read more <<defining-roles,here>>).
|
|
* `CONFIG_DIR/shield/users` defines the hashed passwords for users on the cluster (read more <<users-file,here>>).
|
|
* `CONFIG_DIR/shield/users_roles` defines the role assignments for users on the cluster (read more <<users_defining-roles,here>>).
|
|
* `CONFIG_DIR/shield/role_mapping.yml` defines the role assignments for a Distinguished Name (DN) to a role. This allows for
|
|
LDAP and Active Directory groups and users and PKI users to be mapped to roles (read more <<ldap-role-mapping,here>>).
|
|
* `CONFIG_DIR/shield/logging.yml` contains audit information (read more <<logging-file,here>>).
|
|
* `CONFIG_DIR/shield/system_key` holds a cluster secret key used for message authentication. For more information, see <<enable-message-authentication,Enabling Message Authentication>>.
|
|
|
|
[[ref-shield-files-location]]
|
|
IMPORTANT: Any files that Shield uses must be stored in the Elasticsearch {ref}/setup-dir-layout.html#setup-dir-layout[configuration directory].
|
|
Elasticsearch runs with restricted permissions and is only permitted to read from the locations configured in the directory
|
|
layout for enhanced security.
|
|
|
|
Several of these files are in the YAML format. When you edit these files, be aware that YAML is indentation-level
|
|
sensitive and indentation errors can lead to configuration errors. Avoid the tab character to set indentation levels,
|
|
or use an editor that automatically expands tabs to spaces.
|
|
|
|
Be careful to properly escape YAML constructs such as `:` or leading exclamation points within quoted strings. Using
|
|
the `|` or `>` characters to define block literals instead of escaping the problematic characters can help avoid
|
|
problems.
