I have installed logcheck on a test machine and get the daily report.
In it I see messages similar to the following:
Nov 26 07:02:43 <auth.info> vhost04 sshd[28949]: Bad protocol version
identification '\026\003\001' from 77.247.109.57 port 53786
This is basically noise most likely generated by some self-propagating
malware. If wish to eliminate this from the report. I added this to
/usr/local/etc/logcheck/violations.ignore.d/local-sshd:
^\w{3} [ :[:digit:]]{11} <auth.info> .*sshd\[.*\]: Bad protocol
version identification.*
I checked this regexp against the reported string and it matches. Why
then are these still being reported?
