This errata report looks correct and should be verified IMHO.

The following errata report has been submitted for RFC6274, "Security Assessment of the Internet Protocol Version 4". -------------------------------------- You may review the report below and at: https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid7887 -------------------------------------- Type: Editorial Reported by: Niklas Baerveldt <[email protected]> Section: 3.8.4 Original Text ------------- The attacker is: o Four hops away from A. o Four hops away from B. o Four hops away from C. o Four hops away from D. In the network setup of Figure 3, the only system that satisfies all these conditions is the one marked as the "F". Corrected Text -------------- The attacker is: o Four hops away from A. o Four hops away from B. o Four hops away from C. o Three hops away from D. In the network setup of Figure 6, the only system that satisfies all these conditions is the one marked as the "F". Notes ----- Since the packets that D gets has a TTL of 62 while A,B and C gets packets with TTL of 61, it should be that D is one less hop away than the others. This also seems to be illustrated in Figure 6. Text that seems to refer to the network setup of Figure 6 references to incorrect figure number 3. Instructions: ------------- This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". (If it is spam, it will be removed shortly by the RFC Production Center.) Please use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party will log in to change the status and edit the report, if necessary. -------------------------------------- RFC6274 (draft-ietf-opsec-ip-security-07) -------------------------------------- Title : Security Assessment of the Internet Protocol Version 4 Publication Date : July 2011 Author(s) : F.
