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:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Remediation of RHEL7 with stig-rhel7-disa profile using scap-security-guide-0.1.43 duplicates audit rules and causes "augenrules --load" to fail.

The duplication of audit rules occurs when remediation in online mode (with --remediate) and with generated bash fix (with generate fix).


How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. oscap xccdf eval --remediate --profile stig-rhel7-disa --report report.html --oval-results --results results.xml ssg-rhel7-ds.xml
Or

2. oscap xccdf generate fix --output stig.sh --profile stig-rhel7-disa ./ssg-rhel7-ds.xml
3. ./stig.sh

Actual results:
Rules are duplicated with each remediation run.

Expected results:
No duplication of rules occur

Additional info:
It seems that rules "audit_rules_privileged_commands" and its individual rules "audit_rules_privileged_commands" are working fine. As test scenarios are passing.
Very likely some other rule remediation is breaking the audit rules, and causing them to be duplicated.
