Hi



I have reviewed this document as part of the security directorate's ongoing 
effort to review all IETF documents being processed by the IESG.  These 
comments were written primarily for the benefit of the security area directors.

Document editors and WG chairs should treat these comments just like any other 
last call comments.



The entire text of the Security Considerations section is as follows:



   The mapping extensions described in this document do not provide any

   security services beyond those described by EPP [RFC5730], the EPP

   domain name mapping [RFC5731], and protocol layers used by EPP.  The

   security considerations described in these other specifications apply

   to this specification as well.



This is what we like to call "security considerations by reference". I don't 
know what "security services" are in this context, but they are not the only 
thing that needs to be described in a Security Considerations section.



In this case, the draft adds information about fees, customer credit and pay 
schedule. This falls under the category of financial information, which should 
be protected in transit by security mechanisms that protect confidentiality and 
integrity. It is also true that any transport mechanism that complies with RFC

5730 provides those functions. So what I'm missing here is a sentence that 
calls this out specifically. Something along the lines of "This extension adds 
financial information to the EPP protocol, so confidentiality and integrity 
protection must be provided by the transport mechanism.  All transports 
compliant with RFC5730 provide that"



[RDC] We have added the following text to section 7: "This extension passes 
financial information using the EPP protocol, so confidentiality and integrity 
protection must be provided by the transport mechanism.  All transports 
compliant with RFC5730 provide the needed level of confidentiality and 
integrity protections."
