analyzing-web-server-logs-for-intrusion
Parse Apache and Nginx access logs to detect SQL injection attempts, local file inclusion, directory traversal, web scanner fingerprints, and brute-force patterns. Uses regex-based pattern matching against OWASP attack signatures, GeoIP enrichment for source attribution, and statistical anomaly detection for request frequency and response size outliers.

Analyzing Web Server Logs for Intrusion
When to Use
- When investigating security incidents that require analyzing web server logs for intrusion
- When building detection rules or threat hunting queries for this domain
- When SOC analysts need structured procedures for this analysis type
- When validating security monitoring coverage for related attack techniques
Prerequisites
- Familiarity with security operations concepts and tools
- Access to a test or lab environment for safe execution
- Python 3.8+ with required dependencies installed
- Appropriate authorization for any testing activities
Instructions
- Install dependencies:
pip install geoip2 user-agents - Collect web server access logs in Combined Log Format (Apache) or Nginx default format.
- Parse each log entry extracting: IP, timestamp, method, URI, status code, response size, user-agent, referer.
- Apply detection rules:
- SQL injection:
UNION SELECT,OR 1=1,' OR ', hex encoding patterns - LFI/Path traversal:
../,/etc/passwd,/proc/self,php://filter - XSS:
<script>,javascript:,onerror=,onload= - Scanner signatures: nikto, sqlmap, dirbuster, gobuster, wfuzz user-agents
- Brute force: >50 POST requests to login endpoints from same IP in 5 minutes
- SQL injection:
- Enrich with GeoIP data and generate a prioritized findings report.
python scripts/agent.py --log-file /var/log/nginx/access.log --geoip-db GeoLite2-City.mmdb --output web_intrusion_report.json
