Hi Stewart, I was asked to review the document (draft-ietf-karp-routing-tcp-analysis-06). The document provides an analysis of various routing and signaling protocols, including BGP, LDP, PCEP and MSDP, and highlights issues according to the KARP design guide (RFC6518).
My review focused on the PCEP sections. In general there are no specific PCEP (PCE WG) actions, the document simply outlines some areas for PCEP security improvement via cryptographic mechanisms. Please find my general comments: - The opening paragraph Section 2.4. (PCEP) is ambiguous. The text refers to LDP, whereas PCE applicability is firmly targeting towards TE (RSVP-TE) LSPs. - Inter-domain security is discussed but does not mention existing methods developed by the PCE WG to minimise security issues and network/service confidentiality (including PCE ID, PATH-KEY, etc.). - Using TCP encryption, like IPsec, can also provide PCEP privacy. - The document would benefit from referencing the MPLS/GMPLS Security Framework (RFC5920).

It has been through IETF LC, but we realize that it would be useful for the IDR, MPLS, PCE and PIM working groups to pay special attention to the draft review the sections of this draft that are relevant to their (your) work. I would appreciate feedback from anyone in the WG, but it would be helpful if the WG Chairs could nominate at least one person to review the draft on behalf of the WG.
