Proposed commit message
WHAT: Changed
%{USER:user.name}to%{DATA:user.name}in theSHAREDgrok pattern definition inside the QNAP NAS ingest pipeline (default.yml, line 69). The built-inUSERgrok pattern matches only[a-zA-Z0-9._-]+, which excludes the asterisk character (*).WHY: QNAP NAS logs can contain asterisks in the
Usersfield in two real-world scenarios: Active Directory machine account names (e.g.,DOMAIN\PC-TEST-0001*) and obfuscated/masked usernames (e.g.,**test*ldap***). Any such log line caused the grok processor to fail entirely, dropping the event. Switching to%{DATA}captures any character sequence up to the next delimiter, preserving all surrounding pattern structure while correctly handling these username formats.Checklist

Author's Checklist
TESTDOMAIN\PC-TEST-0001*and masked username**test*ldap***testhost-smb-abc123**lower*test**.w.n) are included in expected outputHow to test this PR locally
Verify that all existing fixtures still pass and the two new fixtures parse user.name (and user.domain where applicable) correctly.
