Hi,

Some of the rules in SCAP Security guide can be parametrized using "XCCDF 
Value".
Those values can be set in SCAP Workbench. However that's not the case of this
particular rule, the value is hard-coded in regular expressions across the
file. We use parametrized values for example in rules that specify minimal
length of a password etc.

The fastest way would be to replace the auid in OVAL file manually.
Better way would be to rework the rules so that they're parametrized using
XCCDF Values.

Best regards
