RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
When scanning local machine, not ticking "Fetch remote resources", strange warning is printed in the diagnostics window.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
scap-workbench-1.1.2-1.el7.x86_64
How reproducible:
reliably
Steps to Reproduce:
1. start scap-workbench
2. select for example pci-dss profile
3. scan machine without ticking "Fetch remote resources"
Actual results:
In diagnostics window, warning is printed:
Error when parsing scan progress output from stdout of the 'oscap' process. Newline encountered while reading rule ID, rule result and/or ':' are missing! Read buffer is 'This content points out to the remote resources. Use `--fetch-remote-resources' option to download them.'.
Expected results:
Fetch this expected line, and print out warning with user-friendly explanation, for example 'Remote resources might be necessary for this profile to work properly. Please select "Fetch remote resources" for complete scan.'
Additional info:
Verified fix on version:
[dahaic@localhost ~]$ rpm -qa scap-workbench
scap-workbench-1.1.4-4.el7.x86_64
[dahaic@localhost ~]$ rpm -qa openscap-scanner
openscap-scanner-1.2.14-2.el7.x86_64
When scanning profile with remote resources requirement, diagnosis window now shows no error, and these two warnings:
13:37:50 warning Remote resources might be necessary for this profile to work properly. Please select "Fetch remote resources" for complete scan
13:37:50 warning Skipping https://www.redhat.com/security/data/oval/com.redhat.rhsa-RHEL7.xml.bz2 file which is referenced from XCCDF content
When fetch remote resources is checked, it currently fails, depending on scap-security-guide version. It is a regression, but not due to update of scap-workbench, but because of ssg. So created a new Bug 1456429
