Description of problem:
The rule logind_session_timeout is misaligned with DISA. It passes with ComplianceAsCode but fails with DISA content.
The problem seems to be that the DISA's prose to set the timeout to 10 minutes, which means to set
StopIdleSessionSec
option to 600, and our content sets this to 600 but the DISA's OVAL checks that theStopIdleSessionSec
option is set to 900.We have discovered this problem in upstream productization.
