Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-12120:
------------------------------------
I think there is still some work to do fleshing out the {{AuditEvent}} class to
make it consistent. Right now the AuditType COMPLETED gives an impression that
the request succeeded even if e.g. status=400. Requests that fail should always
have type=ERROR.
Another thing I see is that when you e.g. call the collections API to create a
collection, we get two audit log entries, one for {{/admin/collection}} and
another for {{/admin/cores}} which are sub requests. Should we somehow try to
mask out such sub requests, and if yes, then how?

> Solr needs a well defined plugin point to implement audit logging
> functionality, which is independent from whatever {{AuthenticationPlugin}} or
> {{AuthorizationPlugin}} are in use at the time.
> It seems reasonable to introduce a new plugin type {{AuditLoggerPlugin}}. It
> could be configured in solr.xml or it could be a third type of plugin defined
> in {{security.json}}, i.e.
> {code:java}
> {
> "authentication" : { "class" : ... },
> "authorization" : { "class" : ... },
> "auditlogging" : { "class" : "x.y.MyAuditLogger", ... }
> }
> {code}
> We could then instrument SolrDispatchFilter to the audit plugin with an
> AuditEvent at important points such as successful authentication:
> {code:java}
> auditLoggerPlugin.audit(new SolrAuditEvent(EventType.AUTHENTICATED,
> request));
> {code}
> We will mark the impl as {{@lucene.experimental}} in the first release to
> let it settle as people write their own plugin implementations.
