Thanks.

I guess that you send them in via syslog without any modification and this is from some kind of appliance.

You should switch over to RAW Input and parse the complete message yourself with the processing pipelines for example.

Should this be a Cisco ASA/Nexus you might like to read this article: https://jalogisch.de/2018/working-with-cisco-asa-nexus-on-graylog/
