[PATCH 0/2] Fix for matching Banner Text in /etc/issue
by Maura Dailey 18 May '13

18 May '13

The existing values for <Value id="login_banner_text"> would never match anything because special characters were not escaped properly. I added backslashes where appropriate and added information to the description tag to inform future users. I also replaced line breaks and existing newlines in "dod_default" and "usgcb_default" with a regex class that would allow for multiple spaces, tabs, and newlines to increase the chances that imperfect copying and pasting from existing guidance will work correctly. More can be done to improve this even further, but it would be at the risk of severely impairing readability. It's worth pointing out that a tool like HTML tidy could potentially break these kinds of Regex checks in the future by adding line breaks in inappropriate places. Maura Dailey (2): Fixing indenting for external variable line. Added backslash escapes to the warning texts to fix the RegEx, replaced line breaks with newlines, and added some more flexible regex to handle variable spacing and newlines.

For various reasons, these OVAL checks are no longer needed. The reasons include: * changes from RHEL 5 to RHEL 6 * handling the same check in different ways in newer OVAL * handling the same check in smarter ways * not really relevant for compliance to begin with Jeffrey Blank (1): deletion of unused OVAL checks RHEL6/input/checks/banner_gui_gdm.xml | 30 ------ RHEL6/input/checks/file_permissions_etc_skel.xml | 54 ---------- .../checks/file_permissions_samba_password.xml | 36 ------- RHEL6/input/checks/package_acpid_removed.xml | 25 ----- RHEL6/input/checks/package_rsh_removed.xml | 25 ----- RHEL6/input/checks/package_vlock_installed.xml | 25 ----- RHEL6/input/checks/package_vlock_removed.xml | 25 ----- ...mail_relay_smtp_auth_for_untrusted_networks.xml | 107 -------------------- RHEL6/input/checks/selinux_enabled.xml | 20 ---- RHEL6/input/checks/service_sssd_disabled.xml | 96 ------------------ .../sysctl_net_ipv6_conf_all_disable_ipv6.xml | 29 ------ .../input/checks/templates/packages_installed.csv | 1 - RHEL6/input/checks/templates/packages_removed.csv | 3 - RHEL6/input/checks/templates/services_disabled.csv | 1 - 14 files changed, 0 insertions(+), 477 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 RHEL6/input/checks/banner_gui_gdm.xml delete mode 100644 RHEL6/input/checks/file_permissions_etc_skel.xml delete mode 100644 RHEL6/input/checks/file_permissions_samba_password.xml delete mode 100644 RHEL6/input/checks/package_acpid_removed.xml delete mode 100644 RHEL6/input/checks/package_rsh_removed.xml delete mode 100644 RHEL6/input/checks/package_vlock_installed.xml delete mode 100644 RHEL6/input/checks/package_vlock_removed.xml delete mode 100644 RHEL6/input/checks/postfix_server_mail_relay_smtp_auth_for_untrusted_networks.xml delete mode 100644 RHEL6/input/checks/selinux_enabled.xml delete mode 100644 RHEL6/input/checks/service_sssd_disabled.xml delete mode 100644 RHEL6/input/checks/sysctl_net_ipv6_conf_all_disable_ipv6.xml

Video preview of the OSCAP Anaconda addon
by Shawn Wells 16 May '13

16 May '13

For those following the SCAP enablement of Anaconda, a new video. This was originally posted to open-scap-list, but thought there would be interest here. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [Open-scap] Video preview of the OSCAP Anaconda addon Date: Tue, 14 May 2013 11:26:04 +0200 From: Vratislav Podzimek <vpodzime(a)redhat.com> To: open-scap-list(a)redhat.com Hello again, I've recorded another video [1] showing the current state of the addon's UI and functionality. The addon now handles not only data stream collections but also various archives (ZIPs and tarballs) containing separate files with the XCCDF benchmark with OVAL checks etc. In the UI it is now possible to switch between profiles and in case of a data stream collection content, it is also possible to switch between data streams and checklists. [1] http://vimeo.com/66085973 Enjoy the video and let me know, what you think about it! -- Vratislav Podzimek Anaconda Rider | Red Hat, Inc. | Brno - Czech Republic _______________________________________________ Open-scap-list mailing list Open-scap-list(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/open-scap-list

disable_telnet_service
by Brian Peake 14 May '13

14 May '13

Shawn & Crew. First, wish to thank all for your efforts. It was very helpful for me, as I used the SSG to help me ensure I was ready and also as a sanity check after updates are done. We just went through our IV&V and my RHEL6 box did very well. Wanted to give some feedback after latest scan regarding the disable_telnet_service check. It is now failing with the latest SSG content w/ openscap 0.9.3 from RH. telnet is not even installed on this box (removing telnet is another STIG). I know I can ignore this, but would think a check would be done to see if it is even installed first, and only do the disable check if telnet is in fact installed. Regards, Brian
