Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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:
The Ansible Playbook generated from the shipped profile and Ansible Playbook generated
from customized profile differ in more values than were actually customized.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
scap-workbench-1.2.1-13.el9.x86_64
openscap-1.3.8-1.el9.x86_64
scap-security-guide-0.1.66-1.el9_1.noarch
How reproducible:
deterministically
Steps to reproduce:
1. Run scap-workbench from the terminal.
2. On the "Open SCAP Security Guide" screen, select RHEL 9 and click on Load Content.
3. Choose "CIS RHEL 9 Benchmark for Level 2 - Server" profile in the Profile dropdown.
4. Click on "Generate Remediation Role", generate an Ansible playbook and save it to a file eg. "cis.yml".
5. Click on Customize, choose custom profile ID, change the value of var_accounts_tmout value and confirm "OK".
6. Click on "Generate Remediation Role", generate an Ansible playbook and save it to a file eg. "cis_customized.yml".
7. Run a diff of the 2 playbooks in the terminal: diff -u cis.yml cis_customized.yml
Actual results:
A lot of values differ in the generated Playbook. But only a single value was changed in the Customization Window.

Expected results:
The Playbooks will differ only in the variable value that has been changed in the Customization UI and other values stay the same.
Additional info:
This bug is also reproducible on Fedora 38 with these RPM versions:
scap-workbench-1.2.1-12.fc37.x86_64
openscap-1.3.8-1.fc38.x86_64
scap-security-guide-0.1.68-1.fc38.noarch
Next to RHEL 9.3 and Fedora 38, I have successfully reproduced this bug also on RHEL 9.2, RHEL 8.8, RHEL 8.4. I have used these versions of packages:
RHEL 9.2:
scap-workbench-1.2.1-13.el9.x86_64
scap-security-guide-0.1.66-1.el9_1.noarch
openscap-1.3.7-1.el9.x86_64
RHEL 8.8:
scap-workbench-1.2.0-8.el8.x86_64
scap-security-guide-0.1.66-2.el8.noarch
openscap-1.3.7-1.el8.x86_64
RHEL 8.4:
scap-workbench-1.2.0-8.el8.x86_64
scap-security-guide-0.1.54-5.el8.noarch
openscap-1.3.4-5.el8.x86_64
Therefore I think that this bug is a longstanding problem.
The bug can be worked around by generating the Playbooks on the command line using the `oscap` tool instead of SCAP Workbench.
First, save the tailoring file to a file and then run:
oscap xccdf generate fix --fix-type ansible --profile cis_customized --tailoring-file tailoring.xml /usr/share/xml/scap/ssg/content/ssg-rhel9-ds.xml > custom.yml
