Error description
zSecure Audit might overwrite the existing configuration members in the CKACUST libraries during compliance rule configuration.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of zSecure Audit saving subsets of * * compliancy evaluation rules. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: zSecure Audit saves evaluation rule * * subsets in the CKACUST libraries, * * possibly over writing whitelist members * * or local customization members. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF provided. * **************************************************************** zSecure Audit allows saving subsets of standard evaluation rules in AU.R with any valid data set member name in a user or site CKACUST library. There is no checking if the name given to the subset does not already exists as a local customization or white list member, allowing for inadvertently overwriting them.
Problem conclusion
zSecure Audit has been modified so that subsets of standard evaluation rules are now stored into a single table in the CKACUST libraries, instead of as separate data set members. Upon the first update, save, or delete of a saved subset in a CKACUST library, zSecure Audit will now convert all previously existing saved subsets in that CKACUST library into a single ISPF table that also resides in that CKACUST library.
