Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>SCAP XML documents validated by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) are provided from several possible sources such as DISA, NIST, and other nongovernment entities. These documents are used as the basis of compliance definitions leveraged to automate compliance auditing of systems. These documents are updated on different frequencies and must be downloaded manually at regular intervals and imported in order to be current. Nonapproved SCAP definitions lead to a false sense of security when evaluating an enterprise environment.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
