I am puzzled by the classification of this rule (pam rule set) which gets triggered by a login failure to ssh.  This isn't a credential change it is remote login failure as signified by the rhost.

# LOG:Dec 21 21:18:46 share2 sshd(pam_unix)[15525]: authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=NODEVssh ruser= rhost=a.b.c.d  user=root
#
regex=authentication failure\; logname=([^ ]*)[ ]*uid=([^ ]*)[ ]*euid=.* tty=([^ ]*)[ ]*ruser=([^ ]*)[ ]*rhost=([^ ]*)[ ]*user=([^ ]*); \
 classification.text=Credentials Change; optgoto=4; \
