SEDCMD not working for credit masking

msmapper

When trying to use the SEDCMD in props.conf to mask credit card numbers that are URL encoded and which can possibly have commas or no dashes to separate the numbers. Below is what I currently have in my props.conf file. I have used a PCRE regex tester and the regex works well.

[index::main]
SEDCMD-ccmask= s/((\%20|\%2C)?(6\d{3}|5\d{3}|4\d{3})(\-|\%20|\%2C)?\d{4}(\-|\%20|\%2C)?\d{4}(\-| \%20|\%2C)?\d{4}(\%20|\%2C))|((\%20|\%2C)+3\d{3}(\-|\%20|\%2C)?\d{6}(\-|\%20|\%2C)?\d{4,5}(\%20|\%2C))/####CC-SCRUBBED###\1/g

any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

I was able to figure out how to make it work. here is my final version for props.conf

[reporting_test]
SEDCMD-ccmask= s/(((\%20|\%2C)?(6\d{3}|5\d{3}|4\d{3})(\-|\%20|\%2C)?\d{4}(\-|\%20|\%2C)?\d{4}(\-|\%20|\%2C)?\d{4}(\%20|\%2C))|((\%20|\%2C)+3\d{3}(\-|\%20|\%2C)?\d{6}(\-|\%20|\%2C)?\d{4,5}(\%20|\%2C)))/####CC-SCRUBBED###/g

thanks

Turk,

here is an example, the fake cc number in the example is near the end but in our logs it can be anywhere after "notes="

Hi Msmapper - Can you provide a few example events (obviously changing the CC numbers 🙂
