This lecture delves into the vulnerabilities of the Moscow Internet Voting System, presented by Karim Kabbani, Matthias Franke, and Pascal Schärli. The presentation covers the encryption scheme, attacks on the system, the use of blockchain, and the shortcomings of the voting scheme. The speakers discuss the challenges faced, such as breaking encryption, leaking information, and the security properties of the system. They also address the fixes implemented after the attacks, including increasing key size and changing the encryption method. The lecture concludes with insights on the importance of proper code documentation and the impact of new technologies like blockchain on voting schemes.
