Definitely a userspace bug...
[root@localhost eparis]# ausearch -m login
<no matches>
[root@localhost eparis]# cat /var/log/audit/audit.log | grep "type=LOGIN" | wc -l
14
[root@localhost eparis]# uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 3.14.4-200.fc20.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue May 13 13:51:08 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[root@localhost eparis]# rpm -q audit
audit-2.3.7-1.fc20.x86_64
type=LOGIN msg=audit(1402952461.125:37289): pid=30708 uid=0 old-auid=4294967295 new-auid=0 old-ses=4294967295 new-ses=137 res=1
I get it that the parse doesn't know how to handle new-auid and new-ses,
but just dropping the record really seems like a bad idea to me...
