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.

balna001@lezqdndbv273:balna001> cat /etc/profile.d/tmout.sh

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Linux lezqdndbv273.staples.com 4.18.0-425.10.1.el8_7.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Dec 14 16:00:01 EST 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Run scap security scan using ssg-rhel8-xccdf.xml
2.  TMOUT is defined either in one place or two, doesnt seem to matter with ksh.  KCS mentions BASH.

https://access.redhat.com/solutions/53885

Actual results:

it's giving the message "/etc/profile[68]: .: line 273: declare: not found" even though TMOUT value defined in one place or two places.

KSH shell is not liking "Declare" option and OpenScape CIS level Benchmark is insisting that tmout value.

Expected results:
No error

Analysis:

Reproducible with scap-security-guide-0.1.63-5.el8.noarch

# oscap xccdf eval --remediate --rule xccdf_org.ssgproject.content_rule_accounts_tmout --profile '(all)' /usr/share/xml/scap/ssg/content/ssg-rhel8-ds.xml

# useradd -s /bin/ksh joe
# su joe
/home/joe/.kshrc[5]: .[24]: .: line 226: declare: not found

The rule accounts_tmout adds a "declare" keyword to /etc/profile.d/tmout.sh which KSH can't interpret. The rule seems to be working only for Bash shell and doesn't seem to be ready for other shells.

We need to investigate if the rule can be extended to support also KSH or if bash is needed. We also should document supported shells in the profiles.

Switching from openscap to correct component.
