The downgrade attack is not addressed in the security recommendations.

Regardless of whether the group thinks that the attack is out of scope the 
group must either:

1) Provide a mechanism that allows the attack to be prevented.

2) Understand the problem well enough to write a security considerations 
section.


The first is much easier than the second.
