Precedence: list

The following errata report has been submitted for RFC5990,
"Use of the RSA-KEM Key Transport Algorithm in the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS)".

--------------------------------------
You may review the report below and at:
http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=5990&eid=2529

--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: Alfred Hoenes <ah@TR-Sys.de>

Section: 4, pg.9

Original Text
-------------
Within the CMS, algorithms are identified by object identifiers
| (OIDs). With one exception, all of the OIDs used in this document
were assigned in other IETF documents, in ISO/IEC standards
documents, by the National Institute of Standards and Technology
(NIST), and in Public-Key Cryptography Standards (PKCS) documents.
The two exceptions are the ASN.1 module's identifier (see Appendix
| B.3) and id-rsa-kem that are both assigned in this document. The
| module object identifiers are defined in an arc delegated by the
former company RSA Data Security Inc. to the S/MIME Working Group.
When the S/MIME Working Group closes, this arc and its registration
procedures will be transferred to IANA.

Alignment with Appendix B: _two_ exceptions, both from same arc.
