LogSentinel Collector Configuration

Configuration via UI

The LogSentinel Collector exposes a web-based UI on port 8070 that allows you to configure multiple sources quickly. The UI is sycnrhonized with the YAML configuration so you don't have to choose one over the other

Configuration file

Below is a full reference of the configuration options for the LogSentinel Collector.

If you don't specify a data source ID, a new data source is created and the ID is automatically set.

Supported connectors

Supported collector types (all of them except syslog, netflow, honeypot, networkMonitoring and ossec support a list of entries):

  • file - watches one or more files and sends each new line as a separate event
  • database - watches one or more tables using custom queries and sends events based on a comparison column (usually timestmap or sequential ID)
  • mssqlAuditLog - watches MS SQL Server audit log (needs to be properly configured prior to starting the collector)
  • mssqlChangeTracking - watches MS SQL Server change tracking details and sends each change
  • mssqlEventLog - watches the MS SQL Server Windows logs
  • mssqlLogin - watches for MSSQL Server login events
  • windowsEventLog - watches Windows event log and sends each entry
  • exchangeAdminLog - watches the admin log of Microsoft Exchange
  • syslog - used to activate a syslog server that forwards syslog events to LogSentinel
  • sapReadAccessLog - reading SAP's RAL (Read access log)
  • netflow - used to activate a netflow v9 collector (partially compatible with IPFIX)
  • snmp - used to receive SNMP traps
  • oracle - configures auditing and FGA on Oracle DB and watches the DBA_AUDIT_TRAIL and FGA_LOGS tables (extending the database collector)
  • postgre - watches a PostgreSQL database using pgaudit
  • honeypot - acts as a decoy server on pre-defined services, prtocols and ports collecting credentials from malicious attempts
  • networkMonitoring - listens to all packets on a network interfaces, transforms them to flows and sends them to the SIEM
  • vsphere - watches VCenter events and system event logs
  • ossec - receives messages from the OSSEC endpoint agent
  • sshUser - watches remote server user activity using the "w" command
  • directory - watches a given directory for changes (files created, deleted or modified)
  • discovery - scans a given netowkr/cidr for for active IPs and every IP for running services(ssh, mysql...)
  • vaultAuditLog - listens for HashiCorp Vault audit log messages
  • leakedCredentials - watches mail server for email addresses to send for leaked credentials monitoring
  • connectivity - periodically checks if a given host is reachable
  • axonDb - used to interact with AxonDB modifications to turn them into audit trail entries

File connector

The file connector can parse files in multiple formats (Common log format, delimited, JSON, XML, MySQL audit log, etc.) and retrieve them from multiple sources (Local, SSH, FTP, SMB).

file:
  - dataSourceId: ... # override the default dataSourceId to send events to a custom one
    format: DELIMITED # one of PLAIN, DELIMITED, REGEX, GROK, XML, JSON, COMMON_LOG_FORMAT, MYSQL_LOG, SAP_SECURITY_AUDIT_LOG, HADOOP_LOG, MONGODB_AUDIT_LOG, LINUX_AUDIT_LOG, DATABASE_QUERY_LOG, CUSTOM
    sourceProtocol: LOCAL # defines how to retrieve the data, one of LOCAL, SSH, FTP, SMB, POWERSHELL
    watchFilePaths: # list of files to watch
      - /var/logs/system.log
    sendLogsRate: 30000 # how often is data sent to the LogSentinel service
    name: ... # a human-readable name for this config, useful when multiple configurations per type are used
    fileConfig:
      watchIntervalMillis: 30000 # period for checking the files for updates 
      supportRotation: true # whether log rotation is needed
      compressionType: #GLIB or ZLIP - used for reading compressed audit log files   
      fromStart: false # whether watching should start from the end or from the start of the file 
    delimitedConfig: ... # see below
    regexConfig: ... # see below
    grokConfig: ... # see below
    accessLogConfig: ... # see below
    jsonConfig: ... # see below
    xmlConfig: ... # see below
    mysqlConfig: ... # see below

    sshConfig: ... # see below
    ftpConfig: ... # see below
    smbConfig: ... # see below
    powershellConfig: ... # see below

Supported file formats

  • Delimited files
  • Regex
  • Grok
  • Common log format
  • JSON
  • XML
  • MySQL
  • Custom (execute custom python script to parse the input)
  • SAP Security Audit Log
  • Hadoop log
  • Linux audit log
  • Database query log (with one logged query per line)
  • MongoDB audit log

The first fix formats above support additional configuration, it can be specified as follows:

Delimited config

Parses text files that are delimtied with a delimiter (comma, tab, semicolon, space, pipe, etc.)

delimitedConfig:
    separator: # if the file has columns, specify the column separator (;,\t)  
    csv: #true or false, whether the CSV syntax should be observed, e.g. escaping quotes;
    actionIdx: #0-based index of the action column
    actorIdx: #0-based index of the actor column
    entityTypeIdx: #0-based index of the entityType column
    entityIdIdx: #0-based index of the entityId column

Regex config

With the regex parser fields can be extracted by specifying (optional) regex patterns. The value obtained is the one from the first capturing group.

regexConfig:
    actorIdRegex: regex
    actionRegex: regex
    entityTypeRegex: regex
    entityIdRegex: regex
    timestampRegex: regex
    paramRegexes:
      paramName1: regex
      paramName2: regex

Grok config

Grok is a superset of regex (see here) that can be used for extracting structured data. In order to extract data via grok patterns, multiple patterns can be configured and the first one that matches the input line handles the extraction

grokConfig:
    grokPatterns:
      - pattern1
      - pattern2

Example grok patterns for parsing linux auth.log:

%{SYSLOGTIMESTAMP:timestamp} %{SYSLOGHOST:host} sshd(?:\[%{POSINT:pid}\])?: (?<action>\w+ \w+) for (invalid user )?%{DATA:actorId} from %{IPORHOST:ip} port %{NUMBER:port} ssh2(: %{GREEDYDATA:signature})?

%{SYSLOGTIMESTAMP:timestamp} %{SYSLOGHOST:host} sshd(?:\[%{POSINT:pid}\])?: (?<action>\w+ \w+) user %{DATA:actorId} from %{IPORHOST:ip}

%{SYSLOGTIMESTAMP:timestamp} %{SYSLOGHOST:host} sshd(?:\[%{POSINT:pid}\])?: pam_unix\(sshd:auth\): %{GREEDYDATA:action}; %{GREEDYDATA:auth_params} rhost=%{IPORHOST:ip}\s+user=%{GREEDYDATA:actorId}

Common Log Format (Access log) config

Access log (e.g. NginX and Apache) based on the Common Log Format If no accessLogconfig and accessLogFormat are specified, the default one is used: %h %l %u %t "%r" %>s %b "%{Referer}i" "%{User-agent}i"

accessLogConfig:
    # the access log format in Common Log Format
    accessLogFormat: format 
    accessLogIgnoredPaths: # option to ignore requests to a list of URIs 
      - path1
      - path2

MySQL Audit Log config

MySQL Audit Log in both the new and old format is supported. The database credentials are needed for initialization purposes:

mysqlConfig:
  - connectionString: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/ - database connection string
    username: root database user
    password: pass database password

JSON config

Parse JSON-based log files where each line is a seprate JSON object. In addition to extracting data with JSONPath, regex can be used to further narrow down the required value within the values returned by the JSONPath.

jsonConfig:
  actorIdPath: ... # JSONPath for actorId
  actorIdRegex: ... # regex for actorId
  actorDisplayNamePath: ... # JSONPath for actorDisplayName
  actorDisplayNameRegex: ... # regex for actorDisplayName
  actionPath: ... # JSONPath for action
  actionRegex: ... # regex for action
  entityTypePath: ... # JSONPath for entityType
  entityTypeRegex: ... # regex for entityType
  entityIdPath: ... # JSONPath for entityId
  entityIdRegex: ... # regex for entityId

XML config

Parse XML-based log files where a log element is repeated. In addition to extracting data with XPath, regex can be used to further narrow down the required value within the values returned by the XPath.

xmlConfig:
  logElementName: ... # the name of the opening log element, e.g. logrecord for <logrecord>
  actorIdPath: ... # XPath for actorId
  actorIdRegex: ... # regex for actorId
  actorDisplayNamePath: ... # XPath for actorDisplayName
  actorDisplayNameRegex: ... # regex for actorDisplayName
  actionPath: ... # XPath for action
  actionRegex: ... # regex for action
  entityTypePath: ... # XPath for entityType
  entityTypeRegex: ... # regex for entityType
  entityIdPath: ... # XPath for entityId
  entityIdRegex: ... # regex for entityId

Custom config

Execute a custom python script to parse each line. The script gets each line as an input and should write URL-encoded key-value pairs with parameters to the standard output (e.g. key1=value1&key2=value2). The following ones are reserved for the built-in fields: actorId, action, entityId, entityType, actorDisplayName, originalEventTimestamp. Other key-value pairs are added as params.

customConfig:
   pythonScriptFilePath: ... # absolute path to python script

The scripts can be easily tested in two ways:

  • using a test collector installation
  • using a bash script that feeds each line of the target file to the python script (example)

Pythn scripts can be generated using a visual editor within the collector, based on Blockly.

SSH Source

Fetching remote files by executing tail -f over SSH

sshConfig:
    host: ... # the host (ip or hostname) to connect to
    port: 22 # port to connect to, specify only if non-default is used
    username: ... # ssh username
    password: ... # ssh password
    privateKey: ... # path the a private key (if needed)

Syslog connector

There is only one syslog connector that listens to both TCP and UDP and is capable of parsing any syslog message. In order to designate a source to a data source in the SIEM, a mapping between IP/host should be provided in the sourceConfigurations property. The IP address or hostname should be the one provided in the syslog header, or if the host header is missing, the IP of the sender. The "default" key can be used for a fallback datasource. Alternatively, the hostToDataSourceId map can be used for simpler mapping. It doesnt' support additional configuration options per source.

syslog:
  sourceConfigurations: # a map of source IP(s) or hostnames to data source id(s). Use "default" to match "any IP/host"
    - host: "172.10.2.12"
      dataSourceId: <data-source-id>
    - host: "device-hostname"
      dataSourceId: <data-source-id>
      excludeRegexes:
        - regexToExclude
    - host: "default"
      dataSourceId: <fallback-data-source-id>
  hostToDataSourceId: # simpler and less flexible way to configure mappings
    "172.10.2.12": <data-source-id>
    "device-hostname": <data-source-id>
    "default": <fallback-data-source-id>
  tcpPort: # TCP port to listen on, defaults to 2514
  tcpRfc6587Port: # TCP port to listen on for RFC6587 messages, defaults to 2515
  udpPort: # UDP port to listen to, defaults to 2516
  queueSize: # the number of threads to queue incoming requests
  sendLogsRate: # rate at which data is batched to the server (defaults to 0="immediate")
  name: # human-readable name of the source

NetFlow/IPFIX connector

The collector can be configured to act as a NetFlow v9 and IPFIX collector

netFlow:              # configuration for the NetFlow (v9) connector
  name: ...           # a human-readable name for this config, useful when multiple configurations per type are used
  port: 2055          # the port at which the NetFlow v9 collector listens (default port for NetFlow is 2055)
  hostToDataSourceId:   # a map of source IP(s) or hostnames to data source id(s). Use "default" to match "any IP/host"
    "172.10.2.12": <data-source-id>
    "device-hostname": <data-source-id>
    "default": <fallback-data-source-id>

sFlow connector

The collector can be configured to act as an sFlow collector

sFlow:              # configuration for the sFlow connector
  name: ...           # a human-readable name for this config, useful when multiple configurations per type are used
  port: 6343          # the port at which the sFlow collector listens (default port for sFlow is 6343)

    "127.0.0.1": <some-data-source-id>
    "default": <other-data-source-id>

SNMP connector

LogSentinel Collector can receive SNMP traps and forward them to the server

snmp:
  hostToDataSourceId: # a map of source IP(s) to data source id(s). Use "default" to match "any IP"
    "172.10.2.12": <some-data-source-id>

  # regexes to extract actor, action, entityId and entityType from stringified data provided by debezium
  - actorRegex: .*
    actionRegex: .*
    entityIdRegex: .*
    entityTypeRegex: .*
    name: ... # a human-readable name for this config, useful when multiple configurations per type are used

    # supported databases are MYSQL, ORACLE, POSTGRES, MSSQL
    database: MYSQL
    offsetFilename: offset.txt #path to file that stores current processed state
    databaseHost: localhost
    databasePort: 3306
    databaseDbname: test # database name
    databaseUser: user
    databasePassword: password
    databaseServerName: serverName # logical name, used to distingush different debezium instances (if any)
    databaseHistoryFilename: history.txt # file where the connector will write and recover DDL statements
    tableWhiteList: table1 # tables that will be monitored (only for some databases)

    # Additional properties supported by debezium can be placed here. Not supported keys are ignored
    # Can override existing hardcoded values of properties offset.flush.interval.ms and server.id

Honeypot

Enable a honeypot on various ports

honeypot:
  dataSourceId: ... # override the default dataSourceId to send events to a custom one
  testMode: false # testMode disables fetching scanner IPs(mainly for performance) and doesn't add firewall blocking rules
  ignoredCIDR: ... # list of CIDR which wont be blocked if attempted a connection
  protocols:
    - SSH
    - HTTPS
    - HTTP
    - RDP
    - SMB
    - FTP

OSSEC connector

The OSSEC connector serves as an OSSEC manager which receives messages from all the installed OSSEC/Wazuh agents.

ossec:
  hostToDataSourceId: # a map of source IP(s) to data source id(s). Use "default" to match "any IP"
    "172.10.2.12": <some-data-source-id>
    "default": <other-data-source-id>
  sendLogsRate: 30000
  queueSize: 5 
  udpPort: 1514
  agentKeys:
    agentId: key

Vault Audit Log connector

Serving as HasiCorp Vault audit device

vaultAuditLog:
  - port: 9090 # port to listen to
    name: vault-logs # human-readable name
    dataSourceId: ... # the id of the data source to send data for

Email connector

The email connector listens to incoming email and parses the messages as logs:

email:
  #imap url - replace <username> and <password> with real ones. Replace imap.gmail.com for other providers
  # Make sure Imap server accepts requests from outside (gmail does not by default)
  imapInboxUrl: imap://<username>:<password>@imap.gmail.com/INBOX
  actionRegex: .*  # regex extracting action from subject or body
  actionRegexSubject: true # search action in subject or body
  entityIdRegex: .* # regex extracting entityId from subject or body
  entityIdRegexSubject: false # search entityId in subject or body
  entityTypeRegex: .* # regex extracting entityType from subject or body
  entityTypeRegexSubject: false # search entityType in subject or body
  name: ... # a human-readable name for this config, useful when multiple configurations per type are used

Connectivity connector

Connectivity connector periodically pings a given host(configured with host, port and protocol) to check if it is reachable, and sends logs to a configured datasource

connectivity:
    dataSourceId: #Override the default dataSourceId to send events to a custom one
    targets: #A list of objects, which consist of host, port and protocol(TCP/UDP)
      - host: 127.0.0.1
        port: 80
        protocol: TCP
    scanInterval: 2000 #Interval in ms at which the targets are pinged

AxonDB connector

LogSentinel Collector can plug into the AxonDB log

axonDB:
  - trackingToken: 0 # AxonDB tracking token
    action: LOG_AXON # Hardcoded action value
    batchEnabled: false # Use batch queries
    batchInterval: 10000 # Batch interval in case batch queries are enabled
    dataSourceId: ... # override the default dataSourceId to send events to a custom one
    name: ... # a human-readable name for this config, useful when multiple configurations per type are used

HTTPS Configuration

If the collector needs to be accessed via HTTPS (rather than plain HTTP), the following configuration options need to be set:

server.ssl.key-store=/path/to/keystore.jks
server.ssl.key-store-password=password
server.ssl.key-password=password
server.ssl.keyStoreType=JKS
server.ssl.keyAlias=cert
server.ssl.enabled-protocols=TLSv1.2
server.ssl.enabled=true
