Non-existent ARIA attribute
WCAG 4.1.2 (A) · EN 301 549 9.4.1.2
An element has the attribute {attr}, which is not part of the specification.
Why it matters
Same as an invented role: the browser discards it silently. These are usually typos (aria-labl, aria-describe) that leave the element without the name or description it was meant to have.
How to fix it
Check the attribute spelling against the WAI-ARIA specification.
