Active wire fences for multitenant FPGAs

Mirjana Stojilovic, Stasa Kostic, Ognjen Glamocanin, Andela Kostic

When spatially shared among multiple tenants, field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are vulnerable to remote power side-channel analysis attacks. Using carefully crafted on-chip voltage sensors, adversaries can extract secrets (e.g., encryption keys or th ...

Midas: Systematic Kernel TOCTTOU Protection

Mathias Josef Payer, Atri Bhattacharyya, Uros Tesic

Double-fetch bugs are a plague across all major operating system kernels. They occur when data is fetched twice across the user/kernel trust boundary while allowing concurrent modification. Such bugs enable an attacker to illegally access memory, cause den ...

Are Cloud FPGAs Really Vulnerable to Power Analysis Attacks?

Francesco Regazzoni, Mirjana Stojilovic, Louis Coulon, Ognjen Glamocanin

Recent works have demonstrated the possibility of extracting secrets from a cryptographic core running on an FPGA by means of remote power analysis attacks. To mount these attacks, an adversary implements a voltage fluctuation sensor in the FPGA logic, rec ...

Exploring Lightweight Efficiency of Forkaes

Subhadeep Banik, Muhammed Fatih Balli

Recently the ForkAES construction was proposed by Andreeva et al. for efficiently performing authenticated encryption of very short messages on next generation IoT devices. The ForkAES tweakable block cipher uses around one and a half AES encryption calls ...

Compact Circuits for Combined AES Encryption/Decryption

Subhadeep Banik

The implementation of the AES encryption core by Moradi et al. at Eurocrypt 2011 is one of the smallest in terms of gate area. The circuit takes around 2400 gates and operates on an 8 bit datapath. However this is an encryption only core and unable to cate ...

Beyond Conventional Security in Sponge-Based Authenticated Encryption Modes

Philipp Svetolik Jovanovic

The Sponge function is known to achieve 2c/2 security, where c is its capacity. This bound was carried over to its keyed variants, such as SpongeWrap, to achieve a min{2c/2,2 kappa} security bound, with kappa the key length. Similarly, many CAESAR competit ...

A Study of Persistent Fault Analysis

Subhadeep Banik, Andrea Felice Caforio

Persistent faults mark a new class of injections that perturb lookup tables within block ciphers with the overall goal of recovering the encryption key. Unlike earlier fault types persistent faults remain intact over many encryptions until the affected dev ...

On Design of Robust Lightweight Stream Cipher with Short Internal State

Subhadeep Banik

The stream cipher Sprout with a short internal state was proposed in FSE 2015. Although the construction guaranteed resistance to generic Time Memory Data Tradeoff attacks, there were some weaknesses in the design and the cipher was completely broken. In t ...

Some Cryptanalytic Results on Lizard

Subhadeep Banik

Lizard is a lightweight stream cipher proposed by Hamann, Krause and Meier in IACR ToSC 2017. It has a Grain-like structure with two state registers of size 90 and 31 bits. The cipher uses a 120 bit secret key and a 64 bit IV. The authors claim that Lizard ...

Dynamic NoC buffer allocation for MPSoC timing side channel attack protection

Mathias Soeken

Multi-Processors Systems-on-Chip (MPSoCs), as a key technology enabler of the new computation paradigm Internet-of-Things (IoT), are exposed to attacks. Malicious applications can be downloaded at runtime to the MPSoC, infect IPs and open doors to perform ...
