The reconstructed evaluation script behind this rule's OVAL check(s) — every module a compound check combines, with this rule's own concrete values and DISA's SCC tool's real per-module mechanism curated from static teardown of SCC releases.

A standalone Shell script to assess this control automatically. Review before running it in your environment.
Syntax-checked and actually executed in an isolated sandbox (not the real system this checks) — confirmed to run without errors.
