OpenSearch Security Plugin

OpenSearch Security is a plugin for OpenSearch that offers encryption, authentication and authorization. When combined with OpenSearch Security-Advanced Modules, it supports authentication via Active Directory, LDAP, Kerberos, JSON web tokens, SAML, OpenID and more. It includes fine grained role-based access control to indices, documents and fields. It also provides multi-tenancy support in OpenSearch Dashboards.

Features

Encryption

  • Full data in transit encryption
  • Node-to-node encryption
  • Certificate revocation lists
  • Hot Certificate renewal

Authentication

  • Internal user database
  • HTTP basic authentication
  • PKI authentication
  • Proxy authentication
  • User Impersonation
  • Active Directory / LDAP
  • Kerberos / SPNEGO
  • JSON web token (JWT)
  • OpenID Connect (OIDC)
  • SAML

Access control

  • Role-based cluster level access control
  • Role-based index level access control
  • User-, role- and permission management
  • Document-level security

Installation

OpenSearch Security Plugin comes bundled by default as part of the OpenSearch distribution. Please refer to the installation guide and technical documentation for detailed information on installing and configuring the OpenSearch Security Plugin.

You can also see the developer guide which walks through the installation of the plugin for an OpenSearch server that doesn't initially have it.

Test and Build

Run all tests:

./gradlew clean test

Build artifacts (zip, deb, rpm):

./gradlew clean assemble
artifact_zip=`ls $(pwd)/build/distributions/opensearch-security-*.zip | grep -v admin-standalone`
./gradlew buildDeb buildRpm -ParchivePath=$artifact_zip

This produces:

build/releases/opensearch-security-<VERSION>.zip
build/distributions/opensearch-security-<VERSION>.deb
build/distributions/opensearch-security-<VERSION>.rpm

Config hot reloading

The Security Plugin configuration is stored in a dedicated index in OpenSearch itself. Changes to the configuration are pushed to this index via the command line tool. This triggers a reload of the configuration on all nodes automatically. This has several advantages over configuration via opensearch.yml:

  • Configuration is stored in a central place
  • No configuration files on the nodes necessary
  • Configuration changes do not require a restart
  • Configuration changes take effect immediately
