Syslog miner fields

weden — Wed, 28 Jun 2017 19:00:56 GMT

Looking for some information on the fields to use for the syslog miners...

This document explains the fields and lables but it doesn't appear that minemeld follows it exactly from other examples I have seen, here and here.

I am trying to pick indicators from a certain direction, sourced from a certain zone, and according to the log description document linked above it is the "from" or "to" field though I am unable to find any other documention on what is available with this minemeld syslog miner.

I was trying this:

conditions:
  - type == 'THREAT'
  - severity == 'high'
  - from == 'Internet'
fields: null
indicators:
  - src_ip

It doesn't seem to be working.

Hi @weden,

you can find a list of fields here: https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/MineMeld-Articles/Using-the-syslog-Miner/ta-p/77262

Could you try this:

conditions:
  - type == 'THREAT'
  - severity == 'high'
  - src_zone == 'Internet'
fields: null
indicators:
  - src_ip
