.New SCAP rule for idle session termination New SCAP rule `logind_session_timeout` has been added to the `scap-security-guide` package in ANSSI-BP-028 profiles for Enhanced and High levels. This rule uses a new feature of the `systemd` service manager and terminates idle user sessions after a certain time. This rule provides automatic configuration of a robust idle session termination mechanism which is required by multiple security policies. As a result, OpenSCAP can automatically check the security requirement related to terminating idle user sessions and, if necessary, remediate it.

Description Marek Haicman 2022-08-29 19:18:13 UTC 
Description of problem:
New option is introduced in SystemD (See Bug 2100464). This option allows to set timeout for idle sessions globally, which can replace no longer available sshd session timeout mechanism using ClientAliveCountMax.

For the reason, we need the rule covering it.

Usage seems to be configuration of logind.conf in a form:
[Login]
StopIdleSessionSec=<time>

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
scap-security-guide-0.1.63-5.el9


How reproducible:
reliably

Steps to Reproduce:
1. look at the list of rules
2.
3.

Actual results:
rule does not exist

Expected results:
rule exists

Same story as with RHEL-8, I don't want to update EUS releases before I have remaining issues ironed out.
