Change 499596 had a related patch set uploaded (by DCausse; owner: DCausse):
[operations/mediawiki-config@master] [cirrus] only activate wikibase entitySearch with Cirrus in WikibaseSearchSettings.php
The reason seems to be that Commons has Wikibase search enabled, but indexes are not set up for Wikibase search. Since ES6 upgrade, Elastic is more strict about fields used in indexes, so unknown Wikibase fields used against Commons index cause an error.

Mentioned in SAL (#wikimedia-operations) [2019-03-27T21:25:55Z] <dcausse@deploy1001> Synchronized wmf-config/Wikibase.php: T219448 (duration: 00m 55s)
Root cause looks to be this one:
16:55 jforrester@deploy1001: Synchronized wmf-config/InitialiseSettings.php: T214075 SDC: Enable Wikidata federation on Commons (duration: 00m 57s)
We knew that federation on commons would break search, T218954 needed to be merged and deployed before federation can be deployed
Oh, damn. I had a vague (false) memory that that had been fixed. Sorry. Thanks for the fix.

Searching on commons is back to fixed today. T218954 is currently delayed on issues getting it through CI, there are some interactions between multiple extensions that are proving difficult to get right. No exact date, but working on it.
This bit was Resolved with https://tools.wmflabs.org/sal/log/AWnBC5MIA1BDhGjCfAWA at 2019-03-27 Z 21:25. The Advanced Search breakage is T219455 and the underlying proper fix is T218954; let's track those there.
