Fix Recommendation

Configure all software repositories defined in "/etc/yum.repos.d/" to have "gpgcheck" enabled:

$ sed -i 's/gpgcheck\s*=.*/gpgcheck=1/g' /etc/yum.repos.d/*

Check Contents

Verify that all software repositories defined in "/etc/yum.repos.d/" have been configured with "gpgcheck" enabled:

$ grep gpgcheck /etc/yum.repos.d/*.repo

/etc/yum.repos.d/tuxcare-fips.repo:gpgcheck=1

If "gpgcheck" is not set to "1" for all returned lines, this is a finding.
