How to write a regex to match two types of password in logs?

[Hemnaath]

Hi Team,

How to write a regex to capture this two password from the logs ?

Eg:  😧 [20200527-144244] login login: cf_db_password=weblogic

        😧 [20200527-144244] login login: password=weblogic_test

        😧 [20200527-134842] login login: cf.db.password.hms=test_weblogic

password\.?\=([^\s]+) --> Using this regex I was able to capture the first two logs pattern.  

password\.?\w+?\=([^\s]+)  --> Using this regex I was able to capture "D: [20200527-134842] login login: cf.db.password.hms=test_weblogic" 

Question is how to write a regex pattern to capture all the password pattern from the above example.

Hi Hemnaath,

Little improvisation to satisfy your requirement. You can use following in props.conf using SEDCMD .

s/password(|\.?\w+?)\=([^\s]+)/password\1=XXXXX/g

Output:

[20200527-144244] login login: cf_db_password=XXXXX
[20200527-144244] login login: password=XXXXX
[20200527-134842] login login: cf.db.password.hms=XXXXX

password(|\.?\w+?)\=([^\s]+)

[Hemnaath]

when I use this regex password(|\.?\w+?)\=([^\s]+)  it is capturing the password details but in the Group1 it is capturing the part of the password. 

password=weblogic

Fullmatch=password=weblogic

Group1= emty space

Group2=weblogic

cf_db_password=weblogic_test

Fullmatch=password=weblogic_test

Group1= empty space

Group2=weblogic_test

cf.db.password.hms=hms_weblogic

Fullmatch=password.hms=hms_weblogic

Group1 = hms

Group2=hms_weblogic

I need to capture only the password=hms_weblogic, password=weblogic so that I can mask  the password using SEDCMD in props.conf file.

so i need a regex which can capture the password=xxxx.
