A user has reported that this causes a NullPointerException

POST _analyze?error_trace=true
{
  "tokenizer": "standard",
  "text": "The foo_bar_size's is 5."
}

@eedugon has reproduced but it would not reproduce for me on 6.5.4 without security.
The reported stack trace starts with security performing a filter for index names

...

..note however that this REST call does not target an index which is likely the source of the problem.

@albertzaharovits apparently @eedugon has not reproduced. My bad.
The issue seems like there may be something environmental to it. User has 2 self hosted systems with same setup but one started exhibiting this problem where previously it worked OK.

@markharwood I have reproduced it. You are right with your assumption about the indices request with a null index ;) I will have a fix soon.

@albertzaharovits
Great, thanks! I presume adding any accessible index name into the URL would be a temporary workaround? (Bearing in mind they're testing with core's standard tokenizer)

Yes, that is correct!

The culprit in #38097 is an `IndicesRequest` that has no indices,
but instead of `request.indices()` returning `null` or `String[0]`
it returned `String[] {null}` . This tripped the audit filter.

I have addressed this in two ways:
1. `request.indices()` returning `String[] {null}` is treated as `null`
    or `String[0]`, i.e. no indices
2. `null` values among the roles and indices lists, which are
    unexpected, will never again stumble the audit filter; `null` values
    are treated as special values that will not match any policy,
    i.e. their events will always be printed.

Closes #38097
