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.

Fixed In Version: scap-security-guide-0.1.66-1.el8_7
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
.SCAP Security Guide rule `file_permissions_sshd_private_key` is aligned with STIG configuration RHEL-08-010490 Previously, the implementation of rule `file_permissions_sshd_private_key` allowed private SSH keys to be readable by the `ssh_keys` group with mode `0644`, while DISA STIG version RHEL-08-010490 required private SSH keys to have mode `0600`. As a consequence, evaluation with DISA’s automated STIG benchmark failed for configuration RHEL-08-010490. For this update, we worked with DISA to align the expected permissions for private SSH keys, and now private keys are expected to have mode `0644` or less permissive. As a result, the rule `file_permissions_sshd_private_key` and configuration RHEL-08-010490 are now aligned.
