We can now announce the next release of Search Guard.
Search Guard 50 brings this:
Support for Elasticsearch 7.11.x
Search Guard now supports the newest incarnation of Elasticsearch. Please note due to the ES license change, we no longer can offers downloads of the sgadmin-standalone tool. However, we still provide downloads built for ES 7.10.2, which can be used without problems with newer versions of Search Guard and Elasticsearch.
Note: Due to issues with ES 7.11.0, we cannot offer Search Guard for ES 7.11.0.
Support for User Attributes in Tenant Patterns
Often requested, now available: You can now use user attributes to configure dynamic tenant patterns in sg_config:
sg_tenant_user_attrs:
tenant_permissions:
- tenant_patterns:
- "dept_${user.attrs.dept_no}"
allowed_actions:
- "SGS_KIBANA_ALL_WRITE"
Audit Logging: Logging the Authentication Domain
Audit Logging now also logs information about the ways a user used for logging in at Search Guard. For example, users logging in via basic auth and an LDAP authentication backend get now the additional audit log attribute basic/ldap.
Signals Stability and Footprint Improvements
Search Guard 50 brings significant improvements regarding stability and the resource footprint of Signals Alerting.
