Open Source Python Logging Software for Linux

ssl_logger is a Python-based tool that decrypts and logs a target process’s SSL/TLS traffic on Linux and macOS. It attaches to a running process by name or PID and hooks SSL_read and SSL_write calls to capture plaintext data flowing through encrypted connections. Output can be streamed to the console with verbose metadata or written to a PCAP file for later analysis in standard tooling. The utility is powered by dynamic instrumentation using the Frida framework, allowing it to intercept function calls without recompiling or modifying the target binary. Typical workflows include debugging custom clients, validating protocol implementations, or inspecting troubleshooting traces when only an encrypted channel is available. While focused on libssl-based traffic, the project outlines future enhancements for broader TLS library coverage and process-launch capture flows.

Fail2Ban monitors log files like /var/log/pwdfail or /var/log/apache/error_log and bans failure-prone addresses. It updates firewall rules to reject the IP address or executes user defined commands.

A simple keylogger written in python. It is primarily designed for backup purposes, but can be used as a stealth keylogger, too. It does not raise any trust issues, since it is a set of [relatively] short python scripts that you can easily examine.

Please note that OWFS source code, and all Issue/Tickets/merge requests have now been moved to https://github.com/owfs/owfs/. Developer mailing lists will still be kept at Sourceforge. ---- OWFS -- 1-Wire file system. Use the Dallas 1-Wire and iButton chips with standard filesystem commands. Create temperature loggers. Monitor everything. OWHTTPD -- same system, only used as a light weight web server. OWFS is also ported to embedded routers, Mac OSX and Windows. Basically you can use these inexpensive little sensors and other chips with very simple wiring to sense and control the physical environment. The interface is very flexible -- everything from a web browser, to read and writing directly to the chip's "file" to integrating with your programs -- even over the internet. There is a growing number of 1-wire sensors: temperature, voltage, humidity, light, ultraviolet, pressure, thermisters, thermocouples, programmable microcontrollers, relays, lights, LCD panels, etc

justniffer is a TCP sniffer. It reassembles and reorders packets and displays the tcp flow in a customizable way. It can log network traffic in web server log format. It can also log network services performances (e.g. web server response times) and extract http content (images, html, scripts, etc)

Cinemagoer is a Python package useful to retrieve and manage the data of the IMDb movie database about movies, people, characters and companies. Platform-independent, it can retrieve data from both the IMDb's web server and a local copy of the whole db.

Automatic rotation of chunked audio logs, with log retrieval facilities.

VScan is a small, text-based, platform independent port scanner written in python, which supports multithreading and banner grabbing.

BlueLogger is built using the Python programming language in order to monitor for Bluetooth devices nearby. The application can log the "Time", "Device Name" and "Device Address" of each discovered device.

Kojoney is an easy of use, secure, robust and powerfull Honeypot for the SSH Service written in Python. With the kojoney daemon are distributeds other tools such as kip2country (IP to Country) and kojreport, a tool to generate reports from the log fi

py-rrdtool is a Python module provides an interface to RRDTool, the well known graphing/logging tool.

privacyIDEA is a management and authentication system for two factor authentication. You can use OTP tokens, OTP cards, SMS, Smartphone Apps to incorparte the second factor. It can even manage SSH keys and supports Offline OTP. The latest version can manage and enroll user certificates. Its modular design makes it easily enhancable. It runs on Linux. Applications and workflows can be connected to privacyIDEA hence enabling two factor authentication in your system logon, web applications, SSL VPNs, firewalls and many more. A detailed audit log gives you full control of what happens when, where (why? ;-) and by whom. A demo site is available at demo.privacyidea.org.

Adminlog provides the command line tool "i" which permits administrators to read, write, and share first person notes about their administrative actions on a server.

A simple log analysis and botnet detection tool

This project offers a client/server tool to analyze the /var/log/auth.log in order to gather information about the login attempts. The information is sent to a server side where the datas are stored in a sqlite database.

Auto Migrator is a collection of python scripts that perform automated migrating(syncing) of files and folders.

Autologging eliminates boilerplate logging setup code and tracing code, and provides a means to separate application logging from program flow and data tracing. Autologging provides two decorators and a custom log level: "autologging.logged" decorates a class to create a __log member. By default, the logger is named for the class's containing module and name (e.g. "my.module.ClassName"). "autologging.traced" decorates a class to provide automatic CALL/RETURN tracing for all class, static, and instance methods, as well as the special __init__ method (by default) "autologging.TRACE" is a custom log level (lower than logging.DEBUG) that is registered with the Python logging module when autologging is imported

Band Saw is a syslog monitoring program for GNOME. It allows the user to setup filters that define which messages should generate alerts. Combined with syslog's remote logging functionality it provides a scalable and easily deployed monitoring solution.

Battery Life Tool Kit is a set of scripts and programs to monitor and log power consumption of Linux laptops/notebooks under different workloads. Set of reference workloads is included in the Tool Kit

Codes debug print statements to reduce size of debug builds, hides debug information from 3rd party people and decreases the effect of longer print lines by printing minimum number of characters to console.

DPytHOS is a means for administrators of large networks to both monitor and manage the servers under their control. DPytHOS is implemented in python and uses a generic database back-end (with MySQL supported and MS-SQL 2000 supported via XML)

EasyLog wraps logging and logging.handlers from the standard python library. EasyLog requires less glue code for configuration or normal usage.
