Building SCAP Security Guide

From source

  1. On Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Fedora make sure the packages cmake, openscap-utils, and their dependencies are installed. We require version 1.0.8 or later of openscap-utils (available in Red Hat Enterprise Linux) as well as git.

# yum -y install cmake openscap-utils git

On Ubuntu make sure the packages expat, libopenscap8, libxml2-utils, xsltproc, and their dependencies are installed as well as git.

$ sudo apt -y install cmake expat libopenscap8 libxml2-utils xsltproc git

Optional: Install the ShellCheck package.

# dnf -y install ShellCheck

Optional: If you want to use the Ninja build system install the ninja-build package

# dnf -y install ninja-build

  1. Download the source code

$ git clone https://github.com/OpenSCAP/scap-security-guide.git

  1. Build the source code

  • To build all the content:

    $ cd scap-security-guide/ $ cd build/ $ cmake ../ $ make -j4

  • To build everything only for one specific product:

    $ cd scap-security-guide/ $ cd build/ $ cmake ../ $ make -j4 rhel6

  • Other targets only for one specific product:

    $ cd scap-security-guide/ $ cd build/ $ cmake ../ $ make -j4 rhel6-content # SCAP XML files for RHEL6 $ make -j4 rhel6-guides # HTML guides for RHEL6 $ make -j4 rhel6-tables # HTML tables for RHEL6 $ make -j4 rhel6 # everything above for RHEL6

  • Configure options before building

    $ cd scap-security-guide/ $ cd build/ $ cmake-gui ../ $ make -j4

  • Using the ninja-build system (requires ninja-build on the system) $ cd scap-security-guide/ $ cd build/ $ cmake -G Ninja ../ $ ninja-build

When the build has completed, the output will be in the build folder. That can be any folder you choose but if you followed the examples above it will be the scap-security-guide/build folder.

The SCAP XML files will be called ssg-${PRODUCT}-${TYPE}.xml. For example ssg-rhel7-ds.xml is the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 source datastream.

The human readable HTML guide index files will be called ssg-${PRODUCT}-guide-index.html. For example ssg-rhel7-guide-index.html.

  1. Discover the following:
  • A pretty prose guide in rhel6-guide.html containing practical, actionable information for administrators
  • A concise spreadsheet representation (potentially useful as the basis for an SRTM document) in rhel6-table-nistrefs-server.html
  • Files that can be ingested by SCAP-compatible scanning tools, to enable automated checking:
    • ssg-rhel6-xccdf.xml
    • ssg-rhel6-oval.xml
    • ssg-rhel6-ds.xml
  1. Install

  • Custom location $ cd scap-security-guide/ $ cd build/ $ cmake ../ $ make -j4 $ make DESTDIR=/opt/absolute/path/to/ssg/ install

  • System-wide installation $ cd scap-security-guide/ $ cd build/ $ cmake ../ $ make -j4 $ make install

  • System-wide installation using ninja $ cd scap-security-guide/ $ cd build/ $ cmake -G Ninja ../ $ ninja-build $ ninja-build install

Building tarball, package and archive zipfile

  1. To build a tarball with all the source code.

make package_source

  1. To build a package with testing purposes.

  • Disable any product you would not like to bundle in the package. For example:

    cmake -DSSG_PRODUCT_JBOSS_EAP5:BOOL=OFF../

  • Build the package.

    make package

Currently, RPM and DEB packages are built.

  1. To build a zip file with all generated source data streams and kickstarts.

make zipfile

Using Docker

Use the Dockerfile present in the top directory and build the image.

$ docker build --no-cache --file Dockerfile --tag oscap:$(date -u +%Y%m%d%H%M) --tag oscap:latest .

To build all the content, run a container without any flags.

$ docker run --cap-drop=all --name scap-security-guide oscap:latest

To build content only for a specific distribution, add the relevant name as a flag:

$ docker run --cap-drop=all --name scap-security-guide oscap:latest firefox

Using docker cp to copy all the generated content to the your host:

$ docker cp scap-security-guide:/home/oscap/scap-security-guide/build $(pwd)/container_build
