The Directory access permissions for audit logs related rules(/var/log/oauth-audit, /var/log/ocp-audit, /var/log/kube-audit) fail after auto remediation applied on a RHCOS10 based cluster. Through detailed scanner logs, the rules failed due to both audit_rules_augenrules and audit_rules_auditctl disabled on the master nodes.
