[CCID2]: Bug in reading Ack Vectors
In CCID2 the receiver-history is sorted in ascending order of sequence number, but the processing of received Ack Vectors requires the list traversal in the opposite direction. The current code has a bug in this regard: the list traversal is upwards. As a consequence, only Ack Vectors with a run length of 1 will pass, in all other Ack Vectors the remaining (acked) sequence numbers are missed, and may later falsely be identified as lost. Note: This bug is only visible when Ack Ratio > 1, since otherwise the run lengths of Ack Vectors are 0.
