So, the default at present in the case of no year is the default for SDF,
which is 1970. Probably not what we're after. I'll fix that to present year. In
the case of no timezone, I would trend to prefer we assumed UTC (I would
actually prefer it if all dates anywhere in Metron were assumed to be UTC
targeted, but that's a bigger debate). At present it would assume TZ for the
locale, which is not passed, ergo defaults to UTC. This feels like an easy
option, though there is an argument for pulling TZ fields out of CEF. Of course
the spec doesn't specify anything on TZ, or indeed any fields that would
indicate the local TZ of the log source, which means we can't really do
anything but assume UTC.
Please let me know if you're aware of anything that might make this
clearer, or if you have anything from HPE on this.
> Create CEF Parser

> Key: METRON-157
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-157
> Project: Metron
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Domenic Puzio
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: platform
>
> Create a parser for CEF (Common Event Format). CEF is a very common
> formatting for security data sources; it is used by FireEye, Adallom, Imperva
> WAF, CyberArk, and others. The parser should be flexible enough to work for
> any of these data sources. CEF uses shorthand field names, so field names
> should be changed to human-readable and Metron-friendly equivalents. CEF
> custom labels (cs1Label, flexString1Label, etc.) should be converted
> appropriately.
> Below are sample messages and their expected parsed output.
