Luke,
Yes, the no_files_unowned_by_group has been broken since it's inception.
I took a stab at fixing it a while back, but have not been able to get back to 
it.

Also, I have seen that Rui Pedro Bernardino worked on it back on june 2, but I 
have not seen that his worked has been pushed.

Subject: no_files_unowned_by_group rule issue

Hello,

     I have been having an issue with the no_files_unowned_by_group rule. I am 
running scans on both a local system and a remote vm and both systems are 
failing. The OVAL output for the local system suggests that five root-owned 
files are causing the failure. In actuality these files are root:root.  When I 
run a find / -xdev -nogroup -print I receive a slew of files that really do not 
have group ownership. Initially I wrote this off as a simple oval-output error, 
however my vm also fails the check and has no group-unowned files. The oval 
output for that failed-rule indicates that a single root-owned file (/.autofsk) 
is responsible for the failure. Is there a known-issue with this rule?

Failed files on Local System

//console.txt
//.Xauthority
//.autofsk
//rootk
//ansys_inc

Failed Files on VM

//.autofsk
