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.

Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
.Fixed Ansible remediations for `scap-security-guide` GNOME `dconf` rules Previously, Ansible remediations for some rules covering the GNOME `dconf` configuration systems were not aligned with the corresponding OVAL checks. Consequently, Ansible incorrectly remediated the following rules, marking them as `failed` in subsequent scans: * `dconf_gnome_screensaver_idle_activation_enabled` * `dconf_gnome_screensaver_idle_delay` * `dconf_gnome_disable_automount_open` With the update released in the link:https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2021:4781[RHBA-2021:4781] advisory, Ansible regular expressions have been fixed. As a result, these rules remediate correctly in the `dconf` configuration.

Description Matus Marhefka 2021-06-25 09:13:21 UTC
Description of problem:
Ansible remediations of the following rules don't work properly:

dconf_gnome_screensaver_idle_activation_enabled
dconf_gnome_screensaver_idle_delay
dconf_gnome_disable_automount_open

Most likely the Ansible remediations are not aligned with the respective OVAL checks.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
scap-security-guide-0.1.54-6.el7_9

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Generate Ansible fix for the 3 mentioned rules.
2. Apply generated Ansible playbook(s).
3. Evaluate these rules using openscap.

Actual results:
The rules are failing after the evaluation with openscap.

Expected results:
The rules are passing after the evaluation with openscap.

Thanks Vojtech for the comment. I adjusted the doc text slightly, but I don't have any more information I could provide. Is there any other info missing?
