Methods for efficient certificate revocation list compression

Serge Vaudenay, Imad Aad, Valtteri Niemi, Rafik Chaabouni, Atefeh Mashatan

A method for providing efficient management of certificate revocation may comprise storing a list of identifiers of digital certificates including a revocation list defining a list of revoked certificates in an accumulator, storing a witness value in assoc ...

Optimal Revocations in Ephemeral Networks: A Game-Theoretic Framework

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Maxime Raya, Igor Bilogrevic

Revocation of public-key certificates is an important security primitive. In this paper, we design a fully distributed local certificate revocation scheme for ephemeral networks - a class of extremely volatile wireless networks with short-duration and shor ...

Revocation Games in Ephemeral Networks

Igor Bilogrevic

An ephemeral network is usually defined by the very short-lived and heterogeneous nature of interactions among self-organizing wireless devices. The wide penetration in everyday gadgets of radio technologies operating in unlicensed frequency spectrum, such ...

Certificate Revocation List Distribution in Vehicular Communication Systems

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Ghita Mezzour

The need to evict compromised, faulty, or illegitimate nodes is well understood in prominent projects designing security architectures for Vehicular Communication (VC) systems. The basic approach envisioned to achieve this is via distri- bution of Certific ...

Chosen-prefix collisions for MD5 and colliding X.509 certificates for different identities

Arjen Lenstra

We present a novel, automated way to find differential paths for MD5. As an application we have shown how, at an approximate expected cost of 2 50 calls to the MD5 compression function, for any two chosen message prefixes P and P′, suffixe ...

DICTATE: DIstributed CerTification Authority with probabilisTic frEshness for Ad Hoc Networks

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Jun Luo, Patrick Eugster

Securing ad hoc networks is notoriously challenging, notably due to the lack of an on-line infrastructure. In particular, key management is a problem that has been addressed by many researchers but with limited results. In this paper, we consider the case ...

Self-organized public-key management for mobile ad hoc networks

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Levente Buttyan, Srdan Capkun

In contrast with conventional networks, mobile ad hoc networks usually do not provide on-line access to trusted authorities or to centralized servers and they exhibit frequent partitioning due to link and node failures and to node mobility. For these reaso ...

Small Worlds in Security Systems: an Analysis of the PGP Certificate Graph

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Levente Buttyan, Srdan Capkun

We propose a new approach to securing computer networks. With this approach, we achieve security in a fully self-organized manner; by this we mean that to secure a computer network, a security system does not require any kind of certification authority or ...

User impersonation in key certification schemes

Arjen Lenstra

In this note we exhibit some weakness in two key certification schemes. We show how a legitimate user can impersonate any other user in an ElGamal-based certification scheme, even if hashing is applied first. Furthermore, we show how anybody can impersonat ...
