Section A.2.4 says:
SHA-256 sha224WithRSAEncryption ::= {pkcs-1 14}
It should say:
SHA-224 sha224WithRSAEncryption ::= {pkcs-1 14}
Notes:
Good catch. Confirmed.
Background: The addition of SHA224 support to PKCS #1 required a few minor technical updates in PKCS #1 v2.2 compared to v2.1, and to the corresponding RFC8017 compared to RFC3447. PKCS #1 v2.2 got the correct update, but RFC8017 didn't -- presumably a copy-and-paste error. My oversight in reviewing the edits. Thanks, Joost, for pointing it out.
