2 weeks ago winevent_nic parser was released with a fault for parsing command line as per device parser content releases need more transparency
I was hoping the content team have at least some of their 'things' together but alas:
1) on 1st Nov the content team has released (incl via live) v210 winevent_nic envision parser with the same fault (not parsing command line )
2) from Oct 16th to now - the faulty 209 parser has not been pulled from Live.
this was reported to RSA as a case and escalated 17-18th
anyone subscribing to the parser directly - note cmdline parsing isn't working correctly. e.g. powershell/cscript for win7.
needless to say we're delighted to see a complete lack of mmm....RSA having their things together with regards to the content release process vs logged defects for the parsers and testing .

had a chat to support who had a look at the parser change on 1st Nov:
Basically a breaking change without customer comms (unless table-map custom should get updated with envision winevent_nic update automatically)
Content team decided to do a breaking change and remap event id 4688 (process creation) commandline via table-map to a new envision name (from info envision name to fld_cmdline), while keeping the target NwName the same :
old:
<mapping envisionName="info" nwName="cmdline" flags="None" envisionDisplayName="CommandLine"/>
new:
<mapping envisionName="fld_cmdline" nwName="cmdline" flags="None" envisionDisplayName="CommandLine"/>
essentially if your table-map doesn't have this you no longer get cmdline despite the same.
without any pre-comms.
this still doesn't address the faulty parser from 2 weeks ago staying on live. before this breaking change
