The following errata report has been verified for RFC6672,
"DNAME Redirection in the DNS". 

--------------------------------------
You may review the report below and at:
http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid5297

--------------------------------------
Status: Verified
Type: Editorial

Reported by: Pieter Lexis <pieter.lexis@powerdns.com>
Date Reported: 2018-03-23
Verified by: Warren Kumari (Ops AD) (IESG)

Section: 5.3.4.1

Original Text
-------------
   ;; Header: QR AA RCODE=3(NXDOMAIN)
   ;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION:
   ; EDNS: version: 0, flags: do; udp: 4096

   ;; Question
   foo.bar.example.com. IN A
   ;; Authority
   bar.example.com. NSEC dub.example.com. A DNAME 
   bar.example.com. RRSIG NSEC [valid signature]

Corrected Text
--------------
   ;; Header: QR AA RCODE=3(NXDOMAIN)
   ;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION:
   ; EDNS: version: 0, flags: do; udp: 4096

   ;; Question
   foo.bar.example.com. IN A
   ;; Authority
   bar.example.com. NSEC dub.example.com. A DNAME RRSIG NSEC
   bar.example.com. RRSIG NSEC [valid signature]

Notes
-----
The NSEC record in the original text would in no case be valid as it denies it's own existence and the existence of the RRSIG, while the text indicates that " the validator can see that it is a  BOGUS reply from an attacker that collated existing records from the DNS to create a confusing reply". This indicates that NSEC and RRSIG should be set in the NSEC bitmap.
