You might want to have a peek at 
https://www.ietf.org/about/groups/iesg/statements/processing-rfc-errata/

Errors that the AD determines "could cause implementation or deployment 
problems or significant confusion" are marked as Verified, but "changes 
that modify the working of a protocol to something that might be 
different from the intended consensus when the document was approved 
should be either Hold for Document Update or Rejected." It is up to the 
AD to determine whether the text aligns with the intention of the WG 
that produced the document. There is no further processing of errata 
beyond this.
