Descriptions

It was identified that if a cross-cluster API key https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/8.14/security-api-create-cross-cluster-api-key.html#security-api-create-cross-cluster-api-key-request-body  restricts search for a given index using the query or the field_security parameter, and the same cross-cluster API key also grants replication for the same index, the search restrictions are not enforced during cross cluster search operations and search results may include documents and terms that should not be returned.

This issue only affects the API key based security model for remote clusters https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/8.14/remote-clusters.html#remote-clusters-security-models  that was previously a beta feature and is released as GA with 8.14.0

Se identificó que si se utiliza una clave API entre clústeres https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/8.14/security-api-create-cross-cluster-api-key.html#security-api -create-cross-cluster-api-key-request-body restringe la búsqueda de un índice determinado utilizando la consulta o el parámetro field_security, y la misma clave API entre clústeres también otorga replicación para el mismo índice, las restricciones de búsqueda no se aplican durante las operaciones de búsqueda entre grupos y los resultados de la búsqueda pueden incluir documentos y términos que no deben devolverse. Este problema solo afecta el modelo de seguridad basado en clave API para clústeres remotos https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/8.14/remote-clusters.html#remote-clusters-security-models que anteriormente era un función beta y se lanza como GA con 8.14.0
