What do you mean by "known attribute" and a "known codec"? 

Any defined attribute/codec is "known".

I mean the latter.  The intended parsing is:

    (non-DES) C5  SBCs generally pass through attributes that they do not...

That is, the possible requirements "Use only known attributes." and "Use only known codecs." are not requirements.
