Karl, we are preparing the verbose mode in upstream. This will be definitely brought to rhel customer with the next rebase.
In the meantime, please advice the customer to run:
oscap xccdf eval
with
--report ./myreport.html --results-arf ./myfullresults.arf.xml
options. In the detailed information is present in both files. HTML report would be much more easier to comprehend.
The verbose mode has been implemented in upstream. See http://www.jan-cerny.cz/2015/12/09/verbose-mode-in-openscap-1-2-7/ Marek, Yes, that is exactly the type of data they are looking for. The customer has said: "We are evaluting giving these results to the business but currently this would not be fit for that purpose." They really want to provide a report to their internal customer that explains (simply) *why* the test failed, not just *that* it failed. As mentioned in comment2 the HTML report is probably what they will want to provide to the business unit, so if the "Extended details" are in the HTML report, that would suffice. But previously it wasn't there: ~~~ Result for Package Signature Checking is Not Disabled For Any Repos Result: fail Rule ID: rule-1008 Time: 2015-12-01 22:11 To ensure that signature checking is not disabled for any repos, ensure that the following line DOES NOT appear in any repo configuration files in /etc/yum.repos.d or elsewhere: gpgcheck=0 Security identifiers CCE-14813-0 ~~~ Better would be something like: ~~~ Result for Package Signature Checking is Not Disabled For Any Repos Result: fail Rule ID: rule-1008 Time: 2015-12-01 22:11 This test failed because the following repo files disable Package Signature Checking in at least one repo by setting 'gpgcheck = 0': /etc/yum.repos.d/beaker-harness.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/beaker-client.repo.disabled /etc/yum.repos.d/rhel-source.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/beakerlib.repo.disabled /etc/yum.repos.d/beaker.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/rhel.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/qa-tools.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/rhel-debuginfo.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/beaker-tasks.repo Security identifiers CCE-14813-0 ~~~ After discussion with the team, we have decided to make this bug a dupe of bug 1140240. Both bugs basically request more detailed information in the HTML report, that is delivered in the current update. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1140240 *** |
Description of problem: Provide more verbose information from Openscap for why something failed or was excluded. E.g. if I run a scan and get Title Ensure gpgcheck Enabled For All Yum Package Repositories Rule ensure_gpgcheck_never_disabled Ident CCE-26647-8 Result fail Title Ensure Software Patches Installed Rule security_patches_up_to_date Ident CCE-27635-2 Result notchecked How do I know which yum config is invalid? And why was CCE-27635-2 not checked? (in this case it was skipped in the content profile). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): openscap-scanner = 1.0.10-3.el6 Additional info: customer dug into the xccdf and pulled out that it does a patetern check for <ind:pattern operation="pattern match">^\s*gpgcheck\s*=\s*0\s*$</ind:pattern> looking threough yum I can find: > grep gpgcheck=0 /etc/yum.repos.d/* /etc/yum.repos.d/custom.repo:gpgcheck=0 But there should be a way for oscap to display this information.
