     * Maintenance, bug fixes

       - A lot of memory leaks have been plugged
       - Refactored rpmverifyfile probe and fixed memory leak
       - Fixed SEGFAULT caused by recursive and circular dependencies between
         OVAL definitions

       - Test suit: better portability, more granularity in results,
         inclusion of memory-related tests
       - Compatibility with uClibc
       - Local and remote file system detection method was improved
       - Make the report a valid HTML5 document

       you, Matěj Týč);
     - timezone for XCCDF TestResult start and end time (thank you, Jan
       Černý);
     - new yamlfilecontent independent probe (draft implementation), see the

   There are other changes as well, here is the list:

     - Introduced `urn:xccdf:fix:script:kubernetes` fix type in XCCDF;
