This is an integration for parsing Common Event Format (CEF) data. It can accept data over syslog or read it from a file.

CEF data is a format like

CEF:0|Elastic|Vaporware|1.0.0-alpha|18|Web request|low|eventId=3457 msg=hello

When syslog is used as the transport the CEF data becomes the message that is contained in the syslog envelope. This integration will parse the syslog timestamp if it is present. Depending on the syslog RFC used the message will have a format like one of these:

<189> Jun 18 10:55:50 host CEF:0|Elastic|Vaporware|1.0.0-alpha|18|Web request|low|eventId=3457 msg=hello

<189>1 2021-06-18T10:55:50.000003Z host app - - - CEF:0|Elastic|Vaporware|1.0.0-alpha|18|Web request|low|eventId=3457 msg=hello

In both cases the integration will use the syslog timestamp as the @timestamp unless the CEF data contains a device receipt timestamp.

The Elastic Agent's decode_cef processor is applied to parse the CEF encoded data. The decoded data is written into a cef object field. Lastly any Elastic Common Schema (ECS) fields that can be populated with the CEF data are populated.

Compatibility

Forcepoint NGFW Security Management Center

This module will process CEF data from Forcepoint NGFW Security Management Center (SMC). In the SMC configure the logs to be forwarded to the address set in var.syslog_host in format CEF and service UDP on var.syslog_port. Instructions can be found in KB 15002 for configuring the SMC.

Testing was done with CEF logs from SMC version 6.6.1 and custom string mappings were taken from 'CEF Connector Configuration Guide' dated December 5, 2011.

Check Point devices

This module will parse CEF data from Check Point devices as documented in Log Exporter CEF Field Mappings.
