Configure SSL

edit

You can specify SSL options when you configure:

Example output config with SSL enabled:

output.elasticsearch.hosts: ["https://192.168.1.42:9200"]
output.elasticsearch.ssl.certificate_authorities: ["/etc/pki/root/ca.pem"]
output.elasticsearch.ssl.certificate: "/etc/pki/client/cert.pem"
output.elasticsearch.ssl.key: "/etc/pki/client/cert.key"

Also see Secure communication with Logstash.

Example Kibana endpoint config with SSL enabled:

setup.kibana.host: "https://192.0.2.255:5601"
setup.kibana.ssl.enabled: true
setup.kibana.ssl.certificate_authorities: ["/etc/pki/root/ca.pem"]
setup.kibana.ssl.certificate: "/etc/pki/client/cert.pem"
setup.kibana.ssl.key: "/etc/pki/client/cert.key"

There are a number of SSL configuration options available to you:

Common configuration options

edit

Common SSL configuration options can be used in both client and server configurations. You can specify the following options in the ssl section of each subsystem that supports SSL.

enabled

edit

To disable SSL configuration, set the value to false. The default value is true.

SSL settings are disabled if either enabled is set to false or the ssl section is missing.

supported_protocols

edit

List of allowed SSL/TLS versions. If SSL/TLS server decides for protocol versions not configured, the connection will be dropped during or after the handshake. The setting is a list of allowed protocol versions: SSLv3, TLSv1 for TLS version 1.0, TLSv1.0, TLSv1.1, TLSv1.2, and TLSv1.3.

The default value is [TLSv1.1, TLSv1.2, TLSv1.3].

cipher_suites

edit

The list of cipher suites to use. The first entry has the highest priority. If this option is omitted, the Go crypto library’s default suites are used (recommended). Note that TLS 1.3 cipher suites are not individually configurable in Go, so they are not included in this list.

The following cipher suites are available:

Cypher Notes

ECDHE-ECDSA-AES-128-CBC-SHA

ECDHE-ECDSA-AES-128-CBC-SHA256

TLS 1.2 only.

RSA-RC4-128-SHA

Disabled by default. RC4 not recommended.

Here is a list of acronyms used in defining the cipher suites:

  • 3DES: Cipher suites using triple DES
  • AES-128/256: Cipher suites using AES with 128/256-bit keys.
  • CBC: Cipher using Cipher Block Chaining as block cipher mode.
  • ECDHE: Cipher suites using Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (DH) ephemeral key exchange.
  • ECDSA: Cipher suites using Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm for authentication.
  • GCM: Galois/Counter mode is used for symmetric key cryptography.
  • RC4: Cipher suites using RC4.
  • RSA: Cipher suites using RSA.
  • SHA, SHA256, SHA384: Cipher suites using SHA-1, SHA-256 or SHA-384.

curve_types

edit

The list of curve types for ECDHE (Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman ephemeral key exchange).

The following elliptic curve types are available:

  • P-256
  • P-384
  • P-521
  • X25519

ca_sha256

edit

This configures a certificate pin that you can use to ensure that a specific certificate is part of the verified chain.

The pin is a base64 encoded string of the SHA-256 of the certificate.

This check is not a replacement for the normal SSL validation, but it adds additional validation. If this option is used with verification_mode set to none, the check will always fail because it will not receive any verified chains.

Client configuration options

edit

You can specify the following options in the ssl section of each subsystem that supports SSL.

certificate_authorities

edit

The list of root certificates for verifications is required. If certificate_authorities is empty or not set, the system keystore is used. If certificate_authorities is self-signed, the host system needs to trust that CA cert as well.

By default you can specify a list of files that filebeat will read, but you can also embed a certificate directly in the YAML configuration:

certificate: "/etc/pki/client/cert.pem"

edit

The path to the certificate for SSL client authentication is only required if client_authentication is specified. If the certificate is not specified, client authentication is not available. The connection might fail if the server requests client authentication. If the SSL server does not require client authentication, the certificate will be loaded, but not requested or used by the server.

When this option is configured, the key option is also required. The certificate option support embedding of the certificate:

key_passphrase

edit

The passphrase used to decrypt an encrypted key stored in the configured key file.

verification_mode

edit

Controls the verification of server certificates. Valid values are:

full
Verifies that the provided certificate is signed by a trusted authority (CA) and also verifies that the server’s hostname (or IP address) matches the names identified within the certificate.
strict
Verifies that the provided certificate is signed by a trusted authority (CA) and also verifies that the server’s hostname (or IP address) matches the names identified within the certificate. If the Subject Alternative Name is empty, it returns an error.
certificate
Verifies that the provided certificate is signed by a trusted authority (CA), but does not perform any hostname verification.
none

Performs no verification of the server’s certificate. This mode disables many of the security benefits of SSL/TLS and should only be used after cautious consideration. It is primarily intended as a temporary diagnostic mechanism when attempting to resolve TLS errors; its use in production environments is strongly discouraged.

The default value is full.

Server configuration options

edit

You can specify the following options in the ssl section of each subsystem that supports SSL.

certificate_authorities

edit

The list of root certificates for client verifications is only required if client_authentication is configured. If certificate_authorities is empty or not set, and client_authentication is configured, the system keystore is used.

If certificate_authorities is self-signed, the host system needs to trust that CA cert as well. By default you can specify a list of files that filebeat will read, but you can also embed a certificate directly in the YAML configuration:
