Looking at a pcap of the traffic between the server and client  there was only 1 login attempts in the last 15 
seconds before the trigger, and that login triggered the alert.
 
I read the rule as being tailored to track login attempts per source client IP to the server over the last 5 seconds. 
Correct??
 
Is there a problem with the rule ?
 
alert tcp any any -> $SQL_SERVERS 3306 ( msg:"SQL MySQL/MariaDB client authentication bypass
