It should say:

   Within EnvelopedData, the encryptedContentInfo identifies the
   content type carried within the ciphertext.  In this case, the
   contentType field of encryptedContentInfo MUST contain id-ct-
   attrCertEncAttrs, which has the following value:

Notes:

The EnvelopedData structure has no "EncapsulatedContentInfo". It has a "EncryptedContentInfo":

EnvelopedData ::= SEQUENCE {
version CMSVersion,
originatorInfo [0] IMPLICIT OriginatorInfo OPTIONAL,
recipientInfos RecipientInfos,
encryptedContentInfo EncryptedContentInfo,
unprotectedAttrs [1] IMPLICIT UnprotectedAttributes OPTIONAL }

CMS objects that carry a "EncapsulatedContentInfo" are of type "SignedData":

SignedData ::= SEQUENCE {
version CMSVersion,
digestAlgorithms DigestAlgorithmIdentifiers,
encapContentInfo EncapsulatedContentInfo,
certificates [0] IMPLICIT CertificateSet OPTIONAL,
crls [1] IMPLICIT RevocationInfoChoices OPTIONAL,
signerInfos SignerInfos }
