v0.4: WEF/WEC subscription generation and reference baseline presets - #6
Merged
Conversation
…ADME catch-up - New-WefSubscription.ps1: source-initiated WEF subscription XML from the settings table or any baseline CSV (one query per selected channel), UTF-8 no BOM, with collector (wecutil) and source (GPO SubscriptionManager, Event Log Readers for Security) setup printed. Pipeline boundary documented: generate (kit) -> transport (WEF/WEC) -> ingest (SIEM, out of scope). - presets/: ASD, Microsoft_Client, Microsoft_Server as selection CSVs, faithful to Yamato's EventLog-Baseline-Guide bat scripts, with documented faithfulness limits (kit flags/sizes superset the references; five ASD subcategories not representable). tools/New-PresetBaselines.ps1 regenerates them; CI drift-checks committed presets. - Self-checks extended: preset drift and WEF XML validation. - README reflects the v0.3.0 feature set plus new sections for presets and WEF/WEC; ROADMAP restructured (v0.4 in progress); CHANGELOG v0.4.0 drafted; .gitignore covers generated WEF/ and Intune/ output.

Inline comments:
In `@CHANGELOG.md`:
- Around line 9-19: Add direct, traceable Microsoft Learn references for the
source-initiated WEF, wecutil, and GPO SubscriptionManager claims in the WEF/WEC
changelog entry, and add exact Yamato Security documentation or source-file
references supporting the baseline fidelity claim. Keep the existing
descriptions unchanged apart from adding these citations.
In `@New-WefSubscription.ps1`:
- Around line 145-150: Update the subscription XML generation around the
Description and generated comments to XML-escape the baseline/source description
before inserting it into element text, and normalize or remove variable data in
XML comments so values such as “--” cannot invalidate the document. Preserve the
existing subscription fields and generated-file behavior.
- Around line 80-82: Move the WEF defaults for ContentFormat, MaxLatencySeconds,
HeartbeatSeconds, and AllowedSourceDomainComputersSddl out of
New-WefSubscription.ps1 into the settings table in LoggingBaseline.Settings.ps1,
adding a plain-language Purpose and applicable volume or stability Risk metadata
for each. Update New-WefSubscription to consume those centralized settings while
preserving the current default behavior.
- Line 183: Update the collector setup output near the existing wecutil qc /q
message to print winrm qc -q first, ensuring WinRM configuration precedes
Windows Event Collector configuration for new collectors.
- Line 156: Add a configurable MaxItems setting to LoggingBaseline.Settings.ps1,
then update the Custom delivery-mode XML generation in New-WefSubscription.ps1
to emit MaxItems alongside MaxLatencyTime within Delivery/Batching, using the
configured value.
In `@tools/New-PresetBaselines.ps1`:
- Line 96: Update the output reporting around the preset selection message and
the line 101 message to construct actual paths from $OutDir and $kitRoot instead
of hardcoded or working-directory-relative paths, while preserving the existing
counts and message content.

…tified CodeRabbit (all six confirmed and fixed): - WEF transport defaults moved into the settings table ($BaselineWefDefaults) per the single-source-of-truth rule; script parameters override per run - MaxItems added to Custom-mode Delivery batching (wecutil can reject a Custom subscription without it) - winrm qc printed before wecutil qc in collector setup - Subscription Description XML-escaped; '--' neutralised in XML comments so user-supplied baseline names cannot break the file - Preset generator messages report actual output paths - CHANGELOG claims linked to Microsoft WEF guidance and EventLog-Baseline-Guide DevSkim (suppressed with reasons): - The WS-Eventing Uri element is a fixed protocol identifier, not a network endpoint - The http://collector:5985 SubscriptionManager example is Microsoft's documented WinRM default; WEF payloads are Kerberos message-level encrypted over HTTP, and the HTTPS:5986 option is now documented Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

What
New-WefSubscription.ps1generates a source-initiated Windows Event Forwarding subscription XML from the settings table or any baseline selection CSV (one<Query>per selected channel), and prints collector (wecutil qc/wecutil cs) and source (GPO SubscriptionManager; Event Log Readers for the Security log) setup. Pipeline boundary documented in the README: generate (kit) -> transport (WEF/WEC) -> ingest (SIEM, out of scope by design).presets/ASD.csv,presets/Microsoft_Client.csv,presets/Microsoft_Server.csv- published baselines expressed as selections of the kit's items, faithful to the bat scripts in Yamato's EventLog-Baseline-Guide, usable with every-BaselineFileparameter (Enable, Test, Intune pack, WEF,-Show). Faithfulness limits documented.tools/New-PresetBaselines.ps1regenerates them; CI fails on drift.Verification
