Ldap authorization in kibana via x-pack

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

i configured elasticsearch and kibana to login with ldap username, i can login succesfully but after i login kibana gives authorization errors like:
Config: Error 403 Forbidden: [security_exception] action [indices:data/write/update] is unauthorized for user [ihsan]

i gave superuser role to user ihsan which takes authorization error. my elasticsearch.yml is:
xpack: security: authc: realms: ldap1: type: ldap order: 0 url: "ldap://x.x.x.x:389" bind_dn: "uid=xxx,ou=xxx,o=xxx" bind_password: "xxx" user_search: base_dn: "o=xxx" files: role_mapping: "role_mapping.yml" unmapped_groups_as_roles: false cluster.name: jira node.name: node1

rolemapping.yml(in elasticsearch):`superuser:

  • "cn=xxx,ou=xxx,o=xxx"`

roles.yml in elasticsearch is empty because i user superuser role which is a builtin role.

i installed x-pack in both elastichsearch and kibana. kibana xpack login page exists, i even login with ldap user ihsan but the role configuration in rolemapping.yml in elasticsearch is not working. do you have any idea?

hi

Do you see any errors in your elasticsearch logs about invalid roles?Can you turn up the log level to DEBUG and post the full stacktrace? Also do check this to see if you can gather more info:

Thanks

Note:Because of character limitation i replied in several replies.
I set log level to debug, while elasticsearch starting, it gives this error(my system is windows) :

as you see my realm name in ldap config in elasticsearch.yml is ldap1:xpack: security: authc: realms: ldap1: type: ldap order: 0 url: "xxx" bind_dn: "uid=xxx,ou=xxx,o=xxx" bind_password: "xxx." user_search: base_dn: "o=xxx" files: role_mapping: "role_mapping.yml" unmapped_groups_as_roles: false

@Ihsan_Kocak, It looks like you turned on DEBUG for the whole server. That generates a lot of logging - far more than you really need.

For future reference, when debugging authentication issues, you only need to turn on DEBUG for the authentication modules within X-Pack. You do that as follows:

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -XPUT -uelastic 'http://localhost:9200/_cluster/settings' -d'
{
    "transient" : {
        "logger.org.elasticsearch.xpack.security.authc" : "DEBUG"
    }
}'

The key part of your log that explains what is happening is here:

[2017-05-26T09:27:34,001][DEBUG][o.e.x.s.a.s.DnRoleMapper ] [node1] the roles [[]], are mapped from these [ldap] groups [[]] for realm [ldap/ldap1]
[2017-05-26T09:27:34,002][DEBUG][o.e.x.s.a.s.DnRoleMapper ] [node1] the roles [[]], are mapped from the user [uid=NETIKOCAK,ou=danisman,o=thy] for realm [ldap/ldap1]

This tells us:

  • Your user has no groups
  • Your user has the DN uid=NETIKOCAK,ou=danisman,o=thy
  • But there no roles are mapped for that user.

In your first post you gave the contents of your role_mapping.yml file as:

superuser: 
  - "cn=IHSAN,ou=xxx,o=xxx"

From what you've supplied, it appears that you are logging in as NETIKOCAK, but you've only configured roles for IHSAN.

Actually cn=IHSAN and uid=NETIKOCAK are same ldap account. i also tried

superuser:  - "uid=xxx,ou=xxx,o=xxx"

but it also did not work.

They might be the same account, but they are not the same DN. The values you enter into the role-mapping file are textual DNs, they have to match precisely with whatever the LDAP server uses as the DN when ES authenticates.

You're going to have to provide more information than that. I can't guess what the problem is, you need to provide the exact details including logs.

uid,ou,o combination worked. Thank you.
