Blacklist lookup - search query

I have a blacklist.csv file that looks like the following,

namedescription
*vpn*VPN was found.
*putty*Putty was found.

 

I'm trying this search and it's showing events match, but not outputting the name/description fields from the lookup.

index=os 
| lookup blacklist.csv name OUTPUT description 
| table name description

 

My goal is to search each event for every value in the name column, so the basic query I'm trying to match with the use of a lookup file is,

index=os
| search *vpn* OR *putty*

 

What lookup query do I need to implement this type of search and display the results?

The lookup table files (CSV lookup) doesn't support wildcard match on it's own. YOu've to create a lookup definition that supports wildcard match.  Have a look at this post for more details:
