fix(rapid7-insightidr): map both ends of a connection (v1.7.0)
An "RDP connection to DC" investigation arrived with device {}, process {} and
two indexed entities, both of them false — the 32-hex tails of its own alert
RRNs, which the IOC regex cannot tell from an MD5. Its four real values were
sitting in the payload, unmapped:
source_account vbalbakakis
destination_account vassilisadmin
source_asset_address sgazswvdip-01.toto.priv
destination_asset_address scazsvpdc01.toto.priv
The mappings assumed an alert has one host and one user, which holds for a
process_start_event and not for an auth rule: a connection names both ends and
neither is "the host". So source and destination now land on src_endpoint and
dst_endpoint, the acting account on actor.user and the account acted upon on
user — the distinction that lets a lateral move be read in one line.
That choice is also what makes the fields placeable. The layout builder's field
picker is a closed <select> over the OCSF catalogue in web/src/lib/ocsf.ts;
a path absent from it cannot be put on a layout at all. All four targets are in
that catalogue. `detection`, the open-vocabulary catch-all, is not and cannot
be — it keeps its value in the Context tab, which renders the whole tree, but a
layout cannot reference it, so anything meant for a layout has to be mapped to a
real OCSF field first.
evidences[] is flattened at the same time. It emitted "device": {}, "process":
{} and "attacks": {"technique": {}} whenever those keys were absent — three
empty objects per alert, filling the context and hiding what was populated.
Verified against the RDP investigation: four entities where there were none,
two hosts and two accounts, and no false hash once the incident type's
extraction policy is set to selected/host,ip,user.

changelog: "1.6.0 — Surface region_failures: the Alert Triage API answers HTTP 200 with a partial result when it cannot reach a region, and that list was being dropped. Also report the regions seen in the RRNs against the configured one. | 1.5.0 — Flatten the whole of rule_keys_of_interest into the context. It is an open vocabulary — a process rule and an authentication rule share no keys — so the hardcoded list only covered rules already seen and left every other alert empty. | 1.4.1 — Read the alert RRN from `rrn` before `id` and drop anything not RRN-shaped: the investigation alert list also returns bare UUIDs, and one of those rejects the entire /alerts/ops/rrns batch (HTTP 400), losing every alert in the run. | 1.4.0 — Add get_investigations_full: the investigation with its alerts inlined, so it stays the unit that becomes an incident. Drop-in for list_investigations (results_path data, dedup rrn). | 1.3.0 — Add search_investigation_alerts: ingest only the alerts that belong to an investigation, with their full detection content, in 1+N+1 calls. Filtering search_alerts on investigation_rrn does not work — the term is accepted and silently matches nothing. | 1.2.1 — search_alerts: report a malformed terms_json with the input named and echoed, instead of json's bare \"Expecting value: line 1 column 1\". | 1.2.0 — Add the search_alerts OCSF mapper: rule_keys_of_interest carries the host, the process, its command line, its parent and the file hashes, so an alert-based feed indexes entities where the investigation feed indexed none. Validated against a live ABA alert. | 1.1.1 — list_alert_fields: default path_depth to 1 and expose the search filter. The V2 fields endpoint refuses an unbounded walk of the tree (\"root path with path depth greater than 1 is not supported for V2 without a search filter\"), so the bare call returned HTTP 400. | 1.1.0 — Add the Alert Triage API (/idr/at): search alerts, get an alert, its evidence, its actors and its process trees, plus the tenant's alert field catalogue. These carry the detection content the investigation endpoints do not — MITRE T-codes, matched rule keys, assets and accounts, command lines. MDR-gated. | 1.0.0 — Initial release: investigation ingestion (list_investigations) with an exhaustive OCSF mapper, 18 commands across investigations, alerts, custom threats, logs/LEQL search and users. API v1/v2 selectable per instance and per command."
