Fix issue where --insecure didn't propogate to Fleet Server ES connection by blakerouse · Pull Request #27969 · elastic/beats

blakerouse · 2021-09-16T12:31:30Z

What does this PR do?

Propogates the --insecure flag to the Fleet Server process, so it can communicate with elasticsearch insecurely.

Why is it important?

Previously it was not possible to instruct Fleet Server to communicate insecurely with elasticsearch. Now if you are bootstrapping a Fleet Server and using --insecure it will also make communication with elasticsearch insecure.

Hi Eric

We have regressed this issue on 7.16 BC3 on Stack Environment in lieu of #27956 under merged PR at #27969. Following is our observation:

Pre-conditions:

Kibana is running and up.
CA certs are available.

Steps followed:

Downloaded Elastic agent and extracted it.
To make CA certs as expired, we manually updated machines time and date setting to Future date.
We ran the Fleet server install command with CA certs.

Observations: Agent installed successfully.

After waiting for few mins and resetting the time to current zone, we navigated back to Kibana and Observed agent was available with Last activity value as " in 2 years".

Further, No logs were available on UI side.

Please find further details in below screenshots:

Updated machine time to expire ca cert
On access Kibana agent showed yp last activity as "in 2years"
Integrations under agent policy:
No Logs recorded on UI
Data streams generated:

I spoke with Diksha and Michal and we are synced up on the best way to test this, the above isn't quite right. We'll post back and expect (and hope) the issue remains fixed as intended, and we can document steps to validate it moving forwards.
