 ignore.d.server rules won't filter out security events. I guess it's
matched as such because of the contained /failure/ in the line. I'm not
completely sure if this should be filtered out, but a matching rule for
that has to live below violations.ignore.d - and there is the
logcheck-smartd file in there which as far as I can see should match ...

 Can you egrep -v -f /etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/smartd instead and
see if the Prefailure Attribute line does show up for you? From what I
can see it shouldn't ...

 Thanks,
