Hello,
the attached patch modifies auparse not to handle timestamp 0.x
specially by using out-of-band information (parse_state == EVENT_EMPTY)
instead of assuming (au->le.e.sec == 0) has a special meaning. As far
as I can see, this the two conditions are equivalent if no event has a
timestamp 0.x.
The patch also decreases the assumed minimal length of a timestamp.
I have tested this only minimally - I have checked that (make check)
succeeds, and that audit-viewer doesn't crash on startup.
This patch fixes handling of the following Lenny's audit record:
> node=hugo type=AVC msg=audit(0.000:6760): avc: denied { recvfrom }

I'm curious how this audit record could have been created (notabile is
that the previous record has a sequence ID 6758 and a reasonable
timestamp). Lenny, Steve, any ideas?
Thank you,

Steve, Mirek -
This patch didn't make it into the 1.7.9 code?
I have been running with it since its release.
Even if the kernel was patched I thought this was good.
Thx,
LCB.
