even though there is a permission mentioned for action " indices:data/read/search ", I am getting this error while trying to create an indices. Could you help me with this issue and guide me to the part where I am making a mistake.
@pablo We were trying with kibana user first, but we got the error then we tried with Admin. So with the default Admin role also we got the same error so we added more permissions to Admin. That’s the reason extra permissions were added to Admin.
The error we are getting is same for Kibana user and Admin, so if you can help us with Kibana User also, its totally fine. But the reason for the modifying the Admin is as mentioned above.
@rizwan_kn One more question, did you lose any functionality in your environment?
The messages regarding kibanaserver and admin users are just INFO level.

# This is the main Open Distro Security configuration file where authentication
# and authorization is defined.
#
# You need to configure at least one authentication domain in the authc of this file.
# An authentication domain is responsible for extracting the user credentials from
# the request and for validating them against an authentication backend like Active Directory for example.
#
# If more than one authentication domain is configured the first one which succeeds wins.
# If all authentication domains fail then the request is unauthenticated.
# In this case an exception is thrown and/or the HTTP status is set to 401.
#
# After authentication authorization (authz) will be applied. There can be zero or more authorizers which collect
# the roles from a given backend for the authenticated user.
#
# Both, authc and auth can be enabled/disabled separately for REST and TRANSPORT layer. Default is true for both.
# http_enabled: true
# transport_enabled: true
#
# For HTTP it is possible to allow anonymous authentication. If that is the case then the HTTP authenticators try to
# find user credentials in the HTTP request. If credentials are found then the user gets regularly authenticated.
# If none can be found the user will be authenticated as an "anonymous" user. This user has always the username "anonymous"
# and one role named "anonymous_backendrole".
# If you enable anonymous authentication all HTTP authenticators will not challenge.
#
#
# Note: If you define more than one HTTP authenticators make sure to put non-challenging authenticators like "proxy" or "clientcert"
# first and the challenging one last.
# Because it's not possible to challenge a client with two different authentication methods (for example
# Kerberos and Basic) only one can have the challenge flag set to true. You can cope with this situation
# by using pre-authentication, e.g. sending a HTTP Basic authentication header in the request.
#
# Default value of the challenge flag is true.
#
#
# HTTP
# basic (challenging)
# proxy (not challenging, needs xff)
# kerberos (challenging)
# clientcert (not challenging, needs https)
# jwt (not challenging)
# host (not challenging) #DEPRECATED, will be removed in a future version.
# host based authentication is configurable in roles_mapping
# Authc
# internal
# noop

Based on your initial message, it would seem that the admin user is not being mapped to all_access role, but only to own_index, which explains why there is no permission for creating index.
To verify this, can you run the below command and post the result here:
@rizwan_kn I presumed you were running opensearch, if you are still on opendistro, try calling below endpoint with same parameters:
_opendistro/_security/authinfo?pretty
We also install opendistroforelasticsearch-kibana-1.9.0 from the same yum repository.
The issue is the opendistroforelasticsearch-1.13.3 is not available in the Yum repository. What would be the best way to upgrade to the latest opendistroforelasticsearch and opendistroforelasticsearch-kibana ?
