Description Marek Haicman 2016-02-29 10:48:29 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1312824 +++

Description of problem:
I am not able to reference oval file via absolute path.

xccdf / check / check-content-ref / href is of type anyURI, which is defined in RFC 2396 ( https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2396.txt ). Thus it should support file://<abs-path>

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
openscap-1.2.5-3.el7

How reproducible:
reliably

Steps to Reproduce:
1. reference oval file with absolute path
2. oscap xccdf eval $xccdf

Actual results:
WARNING: Skipping /tmp/tmp.oBlqLIiXmD/file://tmp/tmp.oBlqLIiXmD/oval.xml file which is referenced from XCCDF content

Expected results:
/tmp/tmp.oBlqLIiXmD/oval.xml is used properly
