1 year ago Thank you for the extensive description and suggestion! Sounds sensible to me.
@JSCU-CNI since you initially wrote the auth.log parser, perhaps you can comment on if you agree?

1 year ago This seems like a good improvement of the auth.log parser indeed :+1:

1 year ago @Schamper Yes but how? I'm not a contributer to create a branch? Or should I fork this project?
I write a patch for this plugin. I'ts a suggestion:

2 months ago Hi @JSCU-CNI yes we do. As of now, it is planned to go in Dissect release 3.17.

2 months ago Thanks for the update :)
Preamble
The basic format for syslog messages in the "/var/log/auth.log" file follows the standard syslog format.
The following pattern applies specifically to the auth.log file.
See: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5424#section-6
Test data
Problem with the current config
The config of the regex pattern is declared in:
https://github.com/fox-it/dissect.target/blob/main/dissect/target/plugins/os/unix/log/auth.py#L18
But if acquire or target runs. The jsonl export deliver a pattern/object with:
source
The service and the process id is in this version part of the message.
It would be better if the service (and process id) and the message will be seperated.
Example for this line:
Declared is this standard in: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc3164#section-5.4. Ses also: https://www.loggly.com/ultimate-guide/linux-logging-basics/
Possible Solution
Try this pattern to the auth.log file and you will get the service and the process seperated from the message.
( w{3} s+ d+ s+ d{2}: d{2}: d{2}) s+( S+) s+([0-9A-Za-z -]**)? [?( w**)? ]?: s+(.+)
devided by groups
To access the data use:
Upgrade for the code
Try this example and use named subgroups for the regex.
Output
So I prefer the named subgroups. But this is maybe not necessary for the mapping in the yield part.
