Grok parse failure syslog

heskez · September 26, 2018, 9:17am

Hi there, I've setup syslog forwarding on my firewall. And I'm getting this error:

fortigate_subtype:%{subtype} host:192.168.100.100 logTimestamp:%{date} %{time} @version:1 syslog5424_pri:188 fortigate_type:syslog message:%COPY-W-TRAP: The mirror-config file is illegal due to failure of previous copy operation/s to mirror-config. tags:_dateparsefailure syslog_index:<188> @timestamp:September 26th 2018, 03:36:21.257 loglevel:%{level} _id:AySFE2Y

I tried to filter as much as possible with tools like herokuapp and such but I got stuck and is now is driving me crazy

guyboertje · September 26, 2018, 12:12pm

I presume "/etc/logstash/patterns" holds custom patterns, if so what are they?

heskez · September 26, 2018, 1:01pm

dir is empty..

guyboertje · September 26, 2018, 3:03pm

Then the pattern you are using SYSLOG5424PRI will only pull out the syslog5424_pri field.

None of the fields like date time level subtype are not grokked out.

heskez · September 26, 2018, 4:45pm

Yes, hmmm do how do I get these then? Adding the patterns? What
should be the syntax?

guyboertje · September 26, 2018, 5:52pm

Try using SYSLOG5424LINE as in:
match => ["message", "%{SYSLOG5424LINE}"]

It is defined as:
SYSLOG5424LINE %{SYSLOG5424BASE} +%{GREEDYDATA:syslog5424_msg}

You can see all the patterns via the vendor folder in your LS installation... vendor/bundle/jruby/2.3.0/gems/logstash-patterns-core-4.1.2/patterns/linux-syslog

heskez · September 26, 2018, 7:55pm

Thanks, I modified this line:

match => ["message", "%{SYSLOG5424PRI:syslog_index}%{GREEDYDATA:message}"]

Into :

  `match => ["message", "%{SYSLOG5424LINE}"]`

Next I copied the patterns "linux-syslog" "firewalls" files from vendor/bundle/jruby/2.3.0/gems/logstash-patterns-core-4.1.2/patterns/ to

/etc/logstash/conf.d/logstash.syslog.conf file and restarted the logstash service.

Now I'm getting this error message in logstash-plain.log:

[2018-09-26T21:47:54,525][INFO ][logstash.outputs.elasticsearch] retrying failed action with response code: 403 ({"type"=>"cluster_block_exception", "reason"=>"blocked by: [FORBIDDEN/12/index read-only / allow delete (api)];"})

and in Kibana:

Fixed the logstash problem, was storage. And got the msg! :

    poluuid:b474b1b8-fbcd-51e7-eda8-2ea24b836fcd dstintf:internal3 tranip:192.168.100.150 tranport:8000 sentpkt:6 fortigate_type:traffic srcport:64130 logTimestamp:%{date} 13:18:08 loglevel:notice devid:FGT400C12345678

Many thanks!
Now ok, this is almost readable, how can I tidy up the date and timestamp?

guyboertje · September 27, 2018, 10:12am

You don't need to copy the patterns - the grok filter knows how to find them as they are the standard pattern set.

guyboertje · September 27, 2018, 10:23am

That grok pattern SYSLOG5424LINE is expecting a TIMESTAMP_ISO8601 timestamp format which is defined as:
TIMESTAMP_ISO8601 %{YEAR}-%{MONTHNUM}-%{MONTHDAY}[T ]%{HOUR}:?%{MINUTE}(?::?%{SECOND})?%{ISO8601_TIMEZONE}?

This should appear as the field syslog5424_ts.
Please post a scrubbed example of your incoming data.
