CCR user permission issue. [indices:admin/seq_no/renew_retention_lease] is unauthorized for user [ccr_user]

Yes it is a bug and it is not fixed yet. For now you can work around this by either grant manage privilege or explicitly add the action name for the remote index, e.g.:

ccr_leader:
    cluster:
      - read_ccr
      - monitor
    indices:
      - names: '*'
        privileges:
          - read
          - manage
