Section 13.1.3. says:
mL = intended length in octets of the encoded message, at least tLen + 11, where tLen is the octet length of the DER encoding T of a certain value computed during the encoding operation
It should say:
emLen = intended length in octets of the encoded message, at least tLen + 11, where tLen is the octet length of the DER encoding T of a certain value computed during the encoding operation
Notes:
In the following text it is called emLen.
Changed to editorial.
