Output Normalization and Compliance IDs Change Summary: In an effort to normalize the output from the compliance plugins, and provide a consistent identifier for the output, we are releasing a patch to many of the compliance plugins that provides fixes for the following: Adds identifiers to many of the results for consistent tracking. Cleans up the end of output whitespace for actual policy values. Fixes to results output in order to identify warnings for errors and use of medium severity in checks more clearly. All compliance plugins have been updated, with the exception of the Windows and SCAP/OVAL plugins. Potential Impacts: Any customers that rely on exact content matches of actual values by using third party tools or custom audit files may have failed results following the update. This would include customers that use the known good functionality from tools that provide baseline or gold image auditing. Target Release Date: 6 April 2020 Additional Notes: In the upcoming quarters we will be releasing more detailed updates to each plugin, which will include updating the Windows plugin. __________________________________ Tenable Research Release Highlights are posted in advance of significant new releases or updates to existing plugins or audit files that are important for early customer notification.
