Hello,

      I noticed that the majority of the rule definitions now have
NIST 800-53 identifiers or an empty set of quotes where an identifier
will be added. Is there a way to get the already-added identifiers to
show-up on the .html scan results? At the moment all I can see is the
CCE number.

Thanks,

(cross posting to open-scap-list since this is of interest to both
communities, and the OpenSCAP guys are in the position to affect change)

This comes up frequently. From a content perspective the NIST 800-53
(+STIG) identifiers are handled in the <ref> tags. It's a matter of
having the tool (e.g. OpenSCAP) place them into the results file. I
recall a thread about this, however couldn't easily find it.

So, for the OpenSCAP guys: within SSG we utilize the <ref> tag to map
additional policy regimes to XCCDF rules. Is there a way to get this
information exposed within result files?


Hello,

We can add these identifiers to the HTML report. How should it look like?

For example Rule named "umask_for_daemons" contains reference to AC-6. The output now looks:

"""
    Security identifiers
       * CCE-27031-4
"""

Once we include 800-53 references it could look like:

"""
    Security identifiers
       * Security Control ID (NIST SP 800-53): AC-6
       * CCE-27031-4
"""

Does that look reasonable to you? Do you have better suggestions?

Thanks!
