OSPP checks for vsyscall=none, audit_backlog_limit=8192, and audit=1 fail on EFI servers

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • On EFI servers, the SCAP checks for vsyscall=none, audit_backlog_limit=8192 , and audit=1 are failing.
  • Why does openscap OSPP scan fail my UEFI systems for "Disable vsyscalls", "Enable Auditing for Processes Which Start Prior to the Audit Daemon" , and "Extend Audit Backlog Limit for the Audit Daemon" when /boot/efi/EFI/redhat/grub.cfg has the specified boot options?

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7
  • EFI system
  • SCAP profile applied
