Section A.4.4.1 says:
This BCB has two targets: the payload block and BIB.
It should say:
This BCB has two targets: the payload block and BIB. NOTE: This example implies using a single Initialization Vector (IV) for two separate encryptions (a BIB and the payload). This violates the requirement in Section 4.3.1 that the "initialization vector ... MUST NOT be reused for multiple encryptions using the same encryption key.". When using the BCB-AES-GCM security context containing a specified Initialization Vector, each BCB should have only one security target.
Notes:
This is listed as "editorial" and not technical because the error appears in a non-normative portion of the document.
