Section 10.8 says: 

           Gost28147-89-ParamSet
           FROM Gost28147-89-EncryptionSyntax

...

       GostR3410-2001-PublicKeyParameters ::=
           SEQUENCE {
               publicKeyParamSet

               encryptionParamSet Gost28147-89-ParamSet OPTIONAL

It should say:

           id-Gost28147-89-CryptoPro-A-ParamSet, Gost28147-89-ParamSet
           FROM Gost28147-89-EncryptionSyntax

...

       GostR3410-2001-PublicKeyParameters ::=
           SEQUENCE {
               publicKeyParamSet
                   OBJECT IDENTIFIER (
                       id-GostR3410-2001-TestParamSet |

                       id-GostR3410-2001-CryptoPro-A-ParamSet |
                       id-GostR3410-2001-CryptoPro-B-ParamSet |
                       id-GostR3410-2001-CryptoPro-C-ParamSet |
                       id-GostR3410-2001-CryptoPro-XchA-ParamSet |
                       id-GostR3410-2001-CryptoPro-XchB-ParamSet
                   ),
               digestParamSet
                   OBJECT IDENTIFIER (
                       id-GostR3411-94-TestParamSet |
                           -- Only for testing purposes
                       id-GostR3411-94-CryptoProParamSet
                   ),
               encryptionParamSet Gost28147-89-ParamSet DEFAULT
                    id-Gost28147-89-CryptoPro-A-ParamSet
           }

Notes:

The parameters structures of GostR3410-2001-PublicKeyParameters defined in RFC 4357 and RFC 4491 do not match. In RFC4491, a DEFAULT is provided for the 'encryptionParamSet' object identifier, while in RFC 4357, the 'encryptionParamSet' object identifier is OPTIONAL.

---Verifier Notes:---
Paul Wouters (AD): Closed as Verified. There won't be any updates for RFC 4357 as the algorithms are not used anymore.
The current GOST algorithms are defined in RFC 6986, RFC 7801 and RFC 7836.
