RFC 7748, "Elliptic Curves for Security", January 2016

Source of RFC: IRTF

Errata ID: 7095
Status: Reported
Type: Editorial
Publication Format(s) : TEXT

Reported By: James Muir
Date Reported: 2022-08-18

Section Appendix A says:

This section specifies the procedure that was used to generate the
above curves; specifically, it defines how to generate the parameter
A of the Montgomery curve y^2 = x^3 + A*x^2 + x.

It should say:

This section specifies the procedure that was used to generate the
above curves; specifically, it defines how to generate the parameter
A of the Montgomery curve v^2 = u^3 + A*u^2 + u.

Notes:

For consistency with the other parts of the document (e.g. Section 3), use the variables u and v in the Montgomery curve equation.
