Answer

What is ISO/IEC 18033-7:2022/DAmd 1?

It is a draft amendment to the standard for tweakable block ciphers. ISO records it at stage 40.60, close of voting, eight pages, with no publication date. The amendment body is not public, so its changes cannot yet be stated.

The document in one paragraph

ISO/IEC 18033-7:2022 is the published standard for tweakable block ciphers. It defines five algorithms: Deoxys-TBC-256, Deoxys-TBC-384, Skinny-64/192, Skinny-128/256 and Skinny-128/384. The amendment is a separate document that changes it. ISO records the amendment as under development, edition 1, eight pages, at stage 40.60.

What stage 40.60 means

The ISO stage code 40.60 is Close of voting. In the ISO process a draft amendment at this stage has been through the enquiry ballot and the votes are being closed. The next recorded step is 40.92, when the full report is circulated to the committee. Publication is a later stage, 60.60.

What we can and cannot say

We can state the designation, the committee, the page count, the stage, the price and the fact that the record shows no date. We cannot state a single clause of the amendment, because the body is not public and we do not have it. Any page that describes the amendment s content today is either quoting a leaked draft or inventing one.

Check it yourself

The record is on the publication page. The base text is mapped on the contents page. The free check turns the answer into a dated decision record.
