This is a forensics check of the system. A configuration scan should do

cat /etc/audit/audit.rules

The format of the output changed. But the STIG is not right for mixing a 
forensics check with a configuration checks. If you really needed to do a check 
using auditctl, then use this:

auditctl -l | grep chmod

Just grep on the syscall and leave system out of it. You should have never 
needed it unless
