Error description

  • STIG controls report incorrect results with CL/Supersession 3.1.
    
    When running IBM CL/Supersession 3.1, the zSecure rule-based
    compliance evaluation (AU.R) STIG controls (ZCLS*) do not
    recognise that CL/Supersession is running, and do not check the
    correct TLVPARM members, as the member name prefix changed from
    KLV to KLK.

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: Users of zSecure Audit exploiting compliance *
    *                 controls which check IBM CL/SuperSession     *
    *                 settings (zSecure compliance controls in the *
    *                 ZCLS category).                              *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: zSecure Audit might not detect the      *
    *                      activity status of the IBM              *
    *                      CL/SuperSession properly resulting in   *
    *                      incorrect compliance reports in ZCLS    *
    *                      category.                               *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF provided and review the        *
    *                 documentation updates.                       *
    ****************************************************************
    IBM CL/SuperSession V3.1 data is not processed properly by
    zSecure Audit resulting in incorrect compliance reports in ZCLS
    category (no objects are tested) since IBM CL/SuperSession
    Engine elements have been renamed from KLVxxxxx and KLUxxxxx to
    KLKxxxxx and KLJxxxxx.
    

Problem conclusion

  • zSecure Audit has been modified, so that compliance controls in
    the ZCLS category deliver proper results for IBM CL/SuperSession
    V3.1. Please note the documentation updates as provided by the
    APAR tracking comment data.
