Comment (by [email protected]):

 you are correct and there is a later rule which uses a regex already to
 handles ipv6 the problem is the behavior of ssh is to map all ipv4
 addresses as ipv6 in this manner when the user connected using ipv4 it
 also maps this way if ipv6 is used even if the user who connects uses
 standard hex notation to connect. this can confus an operator who is not
 familiar with ipv6.

 though this is probably more of an issue to take up with open ssh
 maybe we change modify the rule so it reports both ipv4 and ipv6 version
 of the address in this case.

 either way rule 1909 needs to be corrected
 it is the existing ipv6 rule for user authentication and the fact that it
 reports all non root users as root is a major bug
