--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: Johannes Görlich <johannes.goerl...@siemens.com>

Section: 9

Original Text
-------------
In the absence of an application profile standard specifying otherwise, a 
TLS-compliant application MUST implement the cipher suite 
TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA (see Appendix A.5 for the definition).

Corrected Text
--------------
In the absence of an application profile standard specifying otherwise, a 
TLS-compliant application MUST implement the cipher suite 
TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 (see Appendix A.5 for the definition).

Notes
-----
A must-be-implement cipher suite should not relay on a bulk encryption 
algorithm which is vulnerable to plain-text attacks or on a secure hash 
algorithm which has been proven to be insecure.
