I am executing from my java application the following code using elasticsearch java api 5.6.10, I am execute an update using and use the groovy script inline

```auto
bulkRequest.add(
                        transportClient
                                .prepareUpdate(indexName, ResultType.RESULT.toString(), (String) obj.get("id"))
                                .setScript(new Script(ScriptType.INLINE,"groovy",script,params))
                                .setScriptedUpsert(true)
                                .setRetryOnConflict(configuration.db().saveMaxRetry())
                                .setUpsert(obj));
            }

        BulkResponse response = bulkRequest.execute().actionGet();

```

I am receiving the following error in elasticsearch cluster log:

This problem was fixed adding the followings lines:

```auto
  permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "accessDeclaredMembers";
  permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "setFactory";
  permission java.lang.reflect.ReflectPermission "suppressAccessChecks";

```

in /usr/share/elasticsearch/modules/lang-groovy/plugin-security.policy
