Transport tampered request t action= indices= request=

Briefly, this error occurs when Elasticsearch detects a potential security threat, specifically when the integrity of a request is compromised. This could be due to a mismatch in the request’s content length, or the request being modified during transmission. To resolve this issue, ensure that the network is secure and stable. Check the integrity of your requests and ensure they are not being altered. Also, verify the content length of your requests. If you’re using a proxy, ensure it’s not modifying the requests. Lastly, consider enabling SSL/TLS for secure communication.

Log “{}[transport] [tampered_request]\t{}; action=[{}]; indices=[{}]; request=[{}]{}” classname is DeprecatedLoggingAuditTrail.java.
We extracted the following from Elasticsearch source code for those seeking an in-depth context :

final Optional<string> indices = indices(message);

if (eventFilterPolicyRegistry.ignorePredicate()

.test(new AuditEventMetaInfo(Optional.empty(); Optional.empty(); indices)) == false) {

final LocalNodeInfo localNodeInfo = this.localNodeInfo;

if (indices.isPresent()) {

logger.info("{}[transport] [tampered_request]\t{}; action=[{}]; indices=[{}]; request=[{}]{}"; localNodeInfo.prefix;

originAttributes(threadContext; message; localNodeInfo); action; arrayToCommaDelimitedString(indices.get());

message.getClass().getSimpleName(); opaqueId());

} else {

logger.info("{}[transport] [tampered_request]\t{}; action=[{}]; request=[{}]{}"; localNodeInfo.prefix;

originAttributes(threadContext; message; localNodeInfo); action; message.getClass().getSimpleName();

</string>

final Optional<string> indices = indices(message); if (eventFilterPolicyRegistry.ignorePredicate() .test(new AuditEventMetaInfo(Optional.empty(); Optional.empty(); indices)) == false) { final LocalNodeInfo localNodeInfo = this.localNodeInfo; if (indices.isPresent()) { logger.info("{}[transport] [tampered_request]\t{}; action=[{}]; indices=[{}]; request=[{}]{}"; localNodeInfo.prefix; originAttributes(threadContext; message; localNodeInfo); action; arrayToCommaDelimitedString(indices.get()); message.getClass().getSimpleName(); opaqueId()); } else { logger.info("{}[transport] [tampered_request]\t{}; action=[{}]; request=[{}]{}"; localNodeInfo.prefix; originAttributes(threadContext; message; localNodeInfo); action; message.getClass().getSimpleName(); </string>
