  • The new commit on this PR adds some rule for authentication events on mac that look like this:

Apr 11 02:00:15 localhost com.apple.AccountPolicyHelper[245]: (88.21.2) AuthenticationAllowed completed: record "root", result: Success (0).

  • The even has an output as the further example:
**Phase 1: Completed pre-decoding.
       full event: 'Apr 11 02:00:15 localhost com.apple.AccountPolicyHelper[245]: (88.21.2) AuthenticationAllowed completed: record "root", result: Success (0).'
       timestamp: 'Apr 11 02:00:15'
       hostname: 'localhost'
       program_name: 'com.apple.AccountPolicyHelper'
       log: '(88.21.2) AuthenticationAllowed completed: record "root", result: Success (0).'

**Phase 2: Completed decoding.
       decoder: 'su-mac'

**Phase 3: Completed filtering (rules).
       Rule id: '5307'
       Level: '3'
       Description: 'Authentication Attempt on user: '
**Alert to be generated.

  • Now the rule is able to output which user was the target of the log attempt:

Event log: Apr 11 02:00:15 localhost com.apple.AccountPolicyHelper[245]: (88.21.2) AuthenticationAllowed completed: record "root", result: Success (0).

**Phase 1: Completed pre-decoding.
       full event: 'Apr 11 02:00:15 localhost com.apple.AccountPolicyHelper[245]: (88.21.2) AuthenticationAllowed completed: record "root", result: Success (0).'
       timestamp: 'Apr 11 02:00:15'
       hostname: 'localhost'
       program_name: 'com.apple.AccountPolicyHelper'
       log: '(88.21.2) AuthenticationAllowed completed: record "root", result: Success (0).'

**Phase 2: Completed decoding.
       decoder: 'su-mac'
       dstuser: 'root'

**Phase 3: Completed filtering (rules).
       Rule id: '5307'
       Level: '3'
       Description: 'Authentication Attempt on user: root '
**Alert to be generated.

The event log line has been added on file 0315-su_decoders.xml above the decoder for future testing:
