The BIB is missing a security target length #42

The Streamlined Bundle Security Protocol (SBSP) 734x5r1 specifies the security target as a compound which consists of three numbers - type, length, value. The red book specification is ambiguous as to the exact application of these three numbers, but offline discussions with the authors clarified that all three are to be present in the security target and that only the length is an sdnv.
