You're writing one more level of sub-select than you actually need.
SELECT inlog.log_id AS signin_id, (SELECT MIN(outlog.log_id)FROM logs outlogWHERE outlog.log_id > inlog.log_idAND
actionIN (3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
) AS signout_id
FROM logs inlog
WHERE inlog.action IN (1, 2);
Assuming you want to match signins and signouts by the same account to
the same service, or whatever, you can add in clauses like
AND outlog.account_id = inlog.account_id
or whatever else you like, to the inner select.
