Hi @kz21,

using a subsearch to filter a main search you have to use the same fieldnames:

index=fw sourcetype="ids" cve="*" [search index=va sourcetype="vascanner" | rename dst as target | fields cve target ]
| table src cve target service

but remember that there's the limit of 50,000 results for subsearches.

So if you can have more than 50,000 results in the subsearch you have to use a different approach:

(index=fw sourcetype="ids" cve="*") OR (index=va sourcetype="vascanner")
| rename dst as target 
| stats values(src) AS src values(service) AS service dc(index) AS dc_index BY  cve target
| where dc_index=2

Ciao.

Giuseppe
