Enable checks on scatter-gather (SG) table operations
Scatter-gather tables are mechanism used for high performance I/O on DMA devices. Enable this to turn on checks on scatter-gather tables. The conf...Rule Low Severity -
Configure low address space to protect from user allocation
This is the portion of low virtual memory which should be protected from userspace allocation. This configuration is available from kernel 3.14, bu...Rule Medium Severity -
Disable /dev/kmem virtual device support
Disable support for the /dev/kmem device. The configuration that was used to build kernel is available at <code>/boot/config-*</code>. To chec...Rule Low Severity -
Disable hibernation
Enable the suspend to disk (STD) functionality, which is usually called "hibernation" in user interfaces. STD checkpoints the system and powers it ...Rule Medium Severity -
net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_ra_defrtr
Accept default router in router advertisements?Value -
Disable IA32 emulation
Disables support for legacy 32-bit programs under a 64-bit kernel. The configuration that was used to build kernel is available at <code>/boot/con...Rule Medium Severity -
Disable the IPv6 protocol
Disable support for IP version 6 (IPv6). The configuration that was used to build kernel is available at <code>/boot/config-*</code>. To check...Rule Medium Severity -
Disable kexec system call
<code>kexec</code> is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot b...Rule Low Severity -
Disable legacy (BSD) PTY support
Disable the Linux traditional BSD-like terminal names /dev/ptyxx for masters and /dev/ttyxx for slaves of pseudo terminals, and use only the modern...Rule Medium Severity -
Enable module signature verification
Check modules for valid signatures upon load. Note that this option adds the OpenSSL development packages as a kernel build dependency so that the ...Rule Medium Severity -
Enable automatic signing of all modules
Sign all modules during make modules_install. Without this option, modules must be signed manually, using the scripts/sign-file tool. The configur...Rule Medium Severity -
Require modules to be validly signed
Reject unsigned modules or signed modules with an unknown key. The configuration that was used to build kernel is available at <code>/boot/config-...Rule Medium Severity -
Specify the hash to use when signing modules
This configures the kernel to build and sign modules using <xccdf-1.2:sub idref="xccdf_org.ssgproject.content_value_var_kernel_config_module_sig_ha...Rule Medium Severity -
Specify module signing key to use
Setting this option to something other than its default of <code>certs/signing_key.pem</code> will disable the autogeneration of signing keys and a...Rule Medium Severity -
net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_ra_pinfo
Accept prefix information in router advertisements?Value -
net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter
Enables source route verificationValue -
net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_ra_rtr_pref
Accept router preference in router advertisements?Value -
Sign kernel modules with SHA-512
This configures the kernel to build and sign modules using SHA512 as the hash function. The configuration that was used to build kernel is availab...Rule Medium Severity -
Enable poison without sanity check
Skip the sanity checking on alloc, only fill the pages with poison on free. This reduces some of the overhead of the poisoning feature. This config...Rule Medium Severity -
Use zero for poisoning instead of debugging value
Instead of using the existing poison value, fill the pages with zeros. This makes it harder to detect when errors are occurring due to sanitization...Rule Medium Severity

The content of the drawer really is up to you. It could have form fields, definition lists, text lists, labels, charts, progress bars, etc. Spacing recommendation is 24px margins. You can put tabs in here, and can also make the drawer scrollable.
