Assuria Auditor AutoUpdate #89

Introduction

This update is an Assuria content update suitable for application to all Assuria Auditor agents.

Security Content Updates

 

Security content based on newly published vendor security bulletins (or similar) is included for the agents listed below:

  • HPUX 11.0, 11.11, 11.23, 11.31 (PA-RISC)
  • HPUX 11.23, 11.31 (Itanium)

  • Sun Solaris 10 (SPARC)
     

New XML Extract

 

The update introduces a new customer requested XML export, as part of session based reporting. The new export produces output conforming to a new XML schema. A definition of this schema, in Relax NG format, is available on request. This new export is available by selecting 'New XML' in the session reporting pane. The previous XML format is still available, under the option 'Classic XML'.

The Classic XML format is retained for backwards compatibility with existing consumer applications. Any new applications wishing to consume XML output from Assuria Auditor should use the new format.
 

Optional inclusion of session name in report file name

 

The update introduces a new customer requested option, to include the session name in the file names of session reports. The option is switched off by default, and must be switched on through the Maintenance-Options-Reporting tab.

Selecting this option will cause all session report files, including xml and csv extracts and files exported using the export option, to be named !cardinal-date!_!session_name!.!extension! or, in the case of csv reports, !cardinal-date!_!session_name!_!level!.!extension!. If the option is not selected, all such files will continue to have their previous names.

 

Invoked by information in policy navigators

The policy navigators for all fully supported platforms now include 'invoked by' information for each check, indicating the policies and check groups which invoke the check.
