Type: Editorial
Reported by: Jian Huang <hjian@google.com>

Section: 3.1

Original Text
-------------
alg:  This parameter is used to indicate the algorithm used for the
      security processing.  This parameter MUST be authenticated where
      the ability to do so exists.  This support is provided by AEAD
      algorithms or construction (COSE_Sign, COSE_Sign0, COSE_Mac, and
      COSE_Mac0).

Corrected Text
--------------
alg:  This parameter is used to indicate the algorithm used for the
      security processing.  This parameter MUST be authenticated where
      the ability to do so exists.  This support is provided by AEAD
      algorithms or construction (COSE_Sign, COSE_Sign1, COSE_Mac, and
      COSE_Mac0).

Notes
-----
COSE_Sign0 is only mentioned once. I think it should have been COSE_Sign1
