Fixed In Version: scap-security-guide-0.1.69-1.el8_6
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: Default permissions of uefi files were not accepted and were not possible to be changed via chmod when /boot/efi was using a vfat file system. Consequence: The file_permissions_efi_user_cfg rule was failing and the remediation was ineffective. Fix: Allow the "0700" permission for files in /boot/efi instead of only "0600". "0700" is the default permission and is accepted by CIS, so the assessment and remediation are now better aligned to CIS. Result: The file_permissions_efi_user_cfg rule should no longer fail if /boot/efi is mounted using the default permissions.
