Hello.
I am new to SCAP and trying to determine how to modify a rule. I have downloaded
the source code and have located an OVAL test I would like to change to suite my purposes.
The file is selinux_policytype.xml. I have chosen this file because I am trying to make
the SELinux enforcement rule pass for an MLS enforcement rather than targeted. My
questions are as follows:
The OVAL document references an object, test, state and variable but does not define
them (as far as I can tell) within the OVAL file. Rather, it appears to be calling them
from somewhere else.
In particular I am referring to these lines.
13 test_ref = "test_selinux_policy"
21 object object_ref = obj_selinux_policy
22 state state_ref = state_selinux_policy
Finally I think this is the variable I am going to need to change.
var_ref = var_selinux_policy_name
My question are:
1) where are these objects defined, and if it is possible how can I modify them?
2) Other than the OVAL website are there any other resources anyone can recommend that can
help me learn this material?
