The accounts_password_last_change_is_in_past rule also satisfies the CIS requirements for RHEL7, RHEL8 and RHEL9.
The OVAL check returns "unknown" when there is no password defined in the /etc/shadow file. It is necessary to include a test scenario for this case since it is relatively common to happen.

The previous check was reporting "unknown" when there is no password defined in the /etc/shadow file of the checked system. Before, it was not clear the reason for the unknown result. Therefore, a new test was included to check if passwords are inexistent in the system. The rule is no longer reporting "unknown" and the generated reports are more clearly informing which checks passed or not.
