Abstract
Documentation:
The sid_sid_test is used to check properties associated with the specified sid. It extends the standard TestType as defined in the oval-definitions-schema and one should refer to the TestType description for more information. The required object element references a sid_sid_object and the optional state element specifies the metadata to check. The evaluation of the test is guided by the check attribute that is inherited from the TestType. Note that this sid_sid test was added in version 5.4 as a temporary fix. There is a need within the community to identify things like users and groups by both the name and the sid. For version 6 of OVAL, work is underway for a better solution to the problem, but for now, a second test was added to satisfy the need.
