Can you please confirm whether CIS CAT SSH remote scans are expected to work with RHEL 8 and equivalent hosts which use openssh 8.0+ servers

Solution

CIS-CAT Pro Assessor can use SSH for remote connections with RHEL 8 and equivalent hosts, please review the following information relative to SSH: Setting up ssh keys for remote CIS-CAT assessment

At the moment, we officially support versions of openssh 7. We are in the process of updating our ssh library (jsch) into a more well maintained one which would be compatible with future openssh releases.

While there is not an exact timeline for this update, it is the the R&D phase. Keeping an eye on future CIS-CIS-CAT Pro Assessor Change Logs will let you know when this has been implemented.

In the interim, we have had a successful ssh connections with these libraries:

Code Block
Remote version string: SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_7.4
Local version string: SSH-2.0-JSCH-0.1.54
