Description Matus Marhefka 2020-07-08 11:19:58 UTC
Description of problem:
The following rules contain older link to documentation for "Protecting GRUB 2 with a Password":
* grub2_password
* grub2_admin_username
* grub2_uefi_admin_username
* grub2_uefi_password

The link recently changed from https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/System_Administrators_Guide/sec-Protecting_GRUB_2_with_a_Password.html to https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/system_administrators_guide/ch-working_with_the_grub_2_boot_loader#sec-Protecting_GRUB_2_with_a_Password


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
scap-security-guide-0.1.50-6.el8.noarch


How reproducible:
always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. The links can be found in generated HTML guides.


Actual results:
Mentioned rules refer to link which is not working - https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/System_Administrators_Guide/sec-Protecting_GRUB_2_with_a_Password.html


Expected results:
Mentioned rules refer to a new working link - https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/system_administrators_guide/ch-working_with_the_grub_2_boot_loader#sec-Protecting_GRUB_2_with_a_Password

Comment 1 Gabriel Gaspar Becker 2020-07-08 12:23:21 UTC
This has been fixed upstream already: https://github.com/ComplianceAsCode/content/pull/5890

Comment 3 Matěj Týč 2020-08-21 09:33:37 UTC
There is one more PR to fix it for good: https://github.com/ComplianceAsCode/content/pull/5851

Comment 14 Matěj Týč 2020-08-25 15:36:20 UTC
The test result indicates that the original issue has been fixed, and a new one appeared:

https://beaker-archive.host.prod.eng.bos.redhat.com/beaker-logs/2020/08/45206/4520624/8725865/114729746/taskout.log

In this case, the defective link seems to be a false positive.
