[Security Solution][Detections] EQL Validation (#77493)
* WIP: Adding new route for EQL Validation

This is mostly boilerplate with some rough parameter definitions; the
actual implementation of the validation is going to live in our
validateEql function.

A few tests are failing as the mocks haven't yet been implemented, I
need to see the shape of the responses first.

* Cherry-pick Marshall's EQL types

* Implements actual EQL validation

* Performs an EQL search
* filters out non-parsing errors, and returns what remains in the
  response
* Adds mocks for empty EQL responses (we don't yet have a need for
  mocked data, but we will when we unit-test validateEql)

* Adds validation calls to the EQL form input

* Adds EQL Validation response schema,mocks,tests
* Adds frontend function to call our validation endpoint
* Adds hook, useEqlValidation, to call the above function and return
  state
* Adds labels/help text for EQL Query bar
* EqlQueryBar consumes useEqlValidation and marks the field as invalid,
  but does not yet report errors.

* Do not call the validation API if query is not present

This causes a broader error that results in a 400 response; we can (and
do) handle the case of a blank query in the form itself.

* Remove EQL Help Text

It doesn't add any information for the user, and it currently looks bad
when combined with validation errors.

* Flesh out and use our popover for displaying validation errors

* Fixes issue where old errors were persisted after the user had made
  modifications

* Include verification_exception errors as validation errors

These include errors related to index fields and mappings.

* Generalize our validation helpers

We're concerned with validation errors; the source of those errors is an
implementation detail of these functions.

* Move error popover and EQL reference link to footer

This more closely resembles the new Eui Markdown editor, which places
errors and doc links in a footer.

* Fix jest tests following additional prop

* Add icon for EQL Rule card

* Fixes existing EqlQueryBar tests

These were broken by our use of useAppToasts and the EUI theme.

* Add unit tests around error rendering on EQL Query Bar

* Add tests for ErrorPopover

* Remove unused schema type

Decode doesn't do any additional processing, so we can use t.TypeOf here
(the default for buildRouteValidation).

* Remove duplicated header

* Use ignore parameter to prevent EQL validations from logging errors

Without `ignore: [400]` the ES client will log errors and then throw
them. We can catch the error, but the log is undesirable.

This updates the query to use the ignore parameter, along with updating
the validation logic to work with the updated response.

Adds some mocks and tests around these responses and helpers, since
these will exist independent of the validation implementation.

* Include mapping_exceptions during EQL query validation

These include errors for inaccessible indexes, which should be useful to
the rule writer in writing their EQL query.

* Display toast messages for non-validation messages

* fix type errors

This type was renamed.

* Do not request data in our validation request

By not having the cluster retrieve/send any data, this should saves us
a few CPU cycles.

* Move EQL validation to an async form validator

Rather than invoking a custom validation hook (useEqlValidation) at custom times (onBlur) in our EqlQueryBar
component, we can instead move this functionality to a form validation
function and have it be invoked automatically by our form when values
change. However, because we still need to handle the validation messages
slightly differently (place them in a popover as opposed to an
EuiFormRow), we also need custom error retrieval in the form of
getValidationResults.

After much pain, it was determined that the default behavior of
_.debounce does not work with async validator functions, as a debounced
call will not "wait" for the eventual invocation but will instead return
the most recently resolved value. This leads to stale validation
results and terrible UX, so I wrote a custom function (debounceAsync)
that behaves like we want/need; see tests for details.

* Invalidate our query field when index patterns change

Since EQL rules actually validate against the relevant indexes, changing
said indexes should invalidate/revalidate the query.

With the form lib, this is beautifully simple :)

* Set a min-height on our EQL textarea

* Remove unused prop from EqlQueryBar

Index corresponds to the value from the index field; now that our EQL
validation is performed by the form we have no need for it here.

* Update EQL overview link to point to elasticsearch docs

Adds an entry in our doclinks service, and uses that.

* Remove unused prop from stale tests

* Update docLinks documentation with new EQL link

* Fix bug where saved query rules had no type selected on Edit

* Wait for kibana requests to complete before moving between rule tabs

With our new async validation, a user can quickly navigate away from the
Definition tab before the validation has completed, resulting in the
form being invalidated. Any subsequent user actions cause the form to
correct itself, but until I can find a better solution here this really
just gives the validation time to complete and sidesteps the issue.

Elastic License Functionality

This directory tree contains files subject to the Elastic License. The files subject to the Elastic License are grouped in this directory to clearly separate them from files licensed under the Apache License 2.0.

Development

By default, Kibana will run with X-Pack installed as mentioned in the contributing guide.

Elasticsearch will run with a basic license. To run with a trial license, including security, you can specifying that with the yarn es command.

Example: yarn es snapshot --license trial --password changeme

By default, this will also set the password for native realm accounts to the password provided (changeme by default). This includes that of the kibana_system user which elasticsearch.username defaults to in development. If you wish to specify a password for a given native realm account, you can do that like so: --password.kibana_system=notsecure

Testing

Running specific tests

Test runner Test location Runner command (working directory is kibana/x-pack)
Jest x-pack/**/*.test.js
x-pack/**/*.test.ts
cd x-pack && node scripts/jest -t regexp [test path]
Functional x-pack/test/*integration/**/config.js
x-pack/test/*functional/config.js
x-pack/test/accessibility/config.js
node scripts/functional_tests_server --config x-pack/test/[directory]/config.js
node scripts/functional_test_runner --config x-pack/test/[directory]/config.js --grep=regexp

Examples:

  • Run the jest test case whose description matches 'filtering should skip values of null': cd x-pack && yarn test:jest -t 'filtering should skip values of null' plugins/ml/public/application/explorer/explorer_charts/explorer_charts_container_service.test.js
  • Run the x-pack api integration test case whose description matches the given string: node scripts/functional_tests_server --config x-pack/test/api_integration/config.ts node scripts/functional_test_runner --config x-pack/test/api_integration/config.ts --grep='apis Monitoring Beats list with restarted beat instance should load multiple clusters'

In addition to to providing a regular expression argument, specific tests can also be run by appeding .only to an it or describe function block. E.g. describe( to describe.only(.

Running all tests

You can run unit tests by running:

yarn test

If you want to run tests only for a specific plugin (to save some time), you can run:

yarn test --plugins <plugin>[,<plugin>]*    # where <plugin> is "reporting", etc.

Running server unit tests

You can run mocha unit tests by running:

yarn test:mocha

Running functional tests

For more info, see the Elastic functional test development guide.

The functional UI tests, the API integration tests, and the SAML API integration tests are all run against a live browser, Kibana, and Elasticsearch install. Each set of tests is specified with a unique config that describes how to start the Elasticsearch server, the Kibana server, and what tests to run against them. The sets of tests that exist today are functional UI tests (specified by this config), API integration tests (specified by this config), and SAML API integration tests (specified by this config).

The script runs all sets of tests sequentially like so:

  • builds Elasticsearch and X-Pack
  • runs Elasticsearch with X-Pack
  • starts up the Kibana server with X-Pack
  • runs the functional UI tests against those servers
  • tears down the servers
  • repeats the same process for the API and SAML API integration test configs.

To do all of this in a single command run:

node scripts/functional_tests

Developing functional UI tests

If you are developing functional tests then you probably don't want to rebuild Elasticsearch and wait for all that setup on every test run, so instead use this command to build and start just the Elasticsearch and Kibana servers:

node scripts/functional_tests_server

After the servers are started, open a new terminal and run this command to run just the tests (without tearing down Elasticsearch or Kibana):

node scripts/functional_test_runner

For both of the above commands, it's crucial that you pass in --config to specify the same config file to both commands. This makes sure that the right tests will run against the right servers. Typically a set of tests and server configuration go together.

Read more about how the scripts work here.

For a deeper dive, read more about the way functional tests and servers work here.

Running API integration tests

API integration tests are run with a unique setup usually without UI assets built for the Kibana server.

API integration tests are intended to test only programmatic API exposed by Kibana. There is no need to run browser and simulate user actions, which significantly reduces execution time. In addition, the configuration for API integration tests typically sets optimize.enabled=false for Kibana because UI assets are usually not needed for these tests.

To run only the API integration tests:

node scripts/functional_tests --config test/api_integration/config

Running SAML API integration tests

We also have SAML API integration tests which set up Elasticsearch and Kibana with SAML support. Run only API integration tests with SAML enabled like so:

node scripts/functional_tests --config test/saml_api_integration/config

Running Jest integration tests

Jest integration tests can be used to test behavior with Elasticsearch and the Kibana server.

node scripts/jest_integration

An example test exists at test_utils/jest/integration_tests/example_integration.test.ts
