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.

Comment 2 Martin Preisler 2017-04-13 20:02:45 UTC 
Technically this is some issue in OpenSCAP because even the uncompressed file should work. However let's track when we changed the link in SSG in this ticket to keep it consistent with the opening description.

Fixed upstream in https://github.com/OpenSCAP/scap-security-guide/commit/ff78ff2ab389b8f2f05111e1cabf7158913aee5b

Comment 3 Jan Černý 2017-04-18 13:32:14 UTC 
The issue with XML file parsing is reproducible in OpenSCAP 1.2.10. It has been already fixed in OpenSCAP 1.2.11 by this patch: https://github.com/OpenSCAP/openscap/commit/bc9db8a31a977d8f7a89ff3d98df939d9269007b

Verified fix in version scap-security-guide-0.1.33-4.el7.noarch

[root@localhost ~]$ rpm -qa scap-security-guide

Note: rhel6 content has not been updated. This is OK, as openscap-1.2.13-2.el6.x86_64 can handle these just fine.
