A dedicated function to factorize code can be defined I think.

$sock = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, SOL_UDP);
$msg = "kodi_authd Client authentication failure: {$_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']} ({$_POST['user']})";

The $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'] and $_POST['user'] are defined client(attacker)-side, so it's necessary to add more control / check / sanitization over these variables to prevent log injection attack.

$len = strlen($msg);
socket_sendto($sock, $msg, $len, 0, '127.0.0.1', 514);

If the Syslog server isn't reachable, PHP-error can be triggered. Several control need to be added I think.

Syslog server and port can be defined in the config.php file as constant.

socket_close($sock);
exit;
} else {
echo "<span class='success'>" . AUTHENTICATION_SUCCESS_REDIRECT . "&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><img src='./images/loading-login.gif' />";
echo "<script type='text/javascript'>document.location='./';</script>";

I think this message isn't the right one. It's not a failure in this case, but a success, no ? :)

$len = strlen($msg);
socket_sendto($sock, $msg, $len, 0, '127.0.0.1', 514);
socket_close($sock);
exit;
