PAE: Towards More Efficient and BBB-Secure AE from a Single Public Permutation

Four recent trends have emerged in the evolution of authenticated encryption schemes: (1) Regarding simplicity, the adoption of public permutations as primitives allows for sparing a key schedule and the need for storing round keys; (2) using the sums of p ...

BBB security for 5-round even-Mansour-based key-alternating Feistel ciphers

Ritam Bhaumik

In this paper, we study the security of the Key-Alternating Feistel (KAF) ciphers, a class of key alternating ciphers with the Feistel structure, where each round of the cipher is instantiated with n-bit public round permutation Pi\documentclass[12pt]{mini ...

Attacks on some post-quantum cryptographic protocols: The case of the Legendre PRF and SIKE

Novak Kaluderovic

Post-quantum cryptography is a branch of cryptography which deals with cryptographic algorithms whose hardness assumptions are not based on problems known to be solvable by a quantum computer, such as the RSA problem, factoring or discrete logarithms. This ...

Optimal Symmetric Ratcheting for Secure Communication

Serge Vaudenay, Andrea Felice Caforio, Daniel Patrick Collins, Hailun Yan

To mitigate state exposure threats to long-lived instant messaging sessions, ratcheting was introduced, which is used in practice in protocols like Signal. However, existing ratcheting protocols generally come with a high cost. Recently, Caforio et al. pro ...

Full key recovery side-channel attack against ephemeral SIKE on the Cortex-M4

Aymeric Genet, Natacha Yolande Emmanuel Marie Linard de Guertechin, Novak Kaluderovic

This paper describes the first practical single-trace side-channel power analysis of SIKE. While SIKE is a post-quantum key exchange, the scheme still relies on a secret elliptic curve scalar multiplication which involves a loop of a double-and-add procedu ...

Secrecy by Design With Applications to Privacy and Compression

Yanina Yurina Shkel

Secrecy by design is examined as an approach to information-theoretic secrecy. The main idea behind this approach is to design an information processing system from the ground up to be perfectly secure with respect to an explicit secrecy constraint. The pr ...

A Simpler and Faster NIC Driver Model for Network Functions

George Candea, Solal Vincenzo Pirelli

The advent of software network functions calls for stronger correctness guarantees and higher performance at every level of the stack. Current network stacks trade simplicity for performance and flexibility, especially in their driver model. We show that p ...

Classical Misuse Attacks on NIST Round 2 PQC: The Power of Rank-Based Schemes

Serge Vaudenay, Loïs Evan Huguenin-Dumittan

The US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) recently announced the public-key cryptosystems (PKC) that have passed to the second round of the post-quantum standardization process. Most of these PKC come in two flavours: a weak IND-CPA vers ...

SMoTherSpectre: Exploiting Speculative Execution through Port Contention

Babak Falsafi, Mathias Josef Payer, Atri Bhattacharyya

Spectre, Meltdown, and related attacks have demonstrated that kernels, hypervisors, trusted execution environments, and browsers are prone to information disclosure through micro-architectural weaknesses. However, it remains unclear as to what extent other ...

Misuse Attacks on Post-quantum Cryptosystems

Serge Vaudenay, Loïs Evan Huguenin-Dumittan, Abdullah Talayhan, Fatma Betül Durak, Ciprian Baetu

Many post-quantum cryptosystems which have been proposed in the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NISI) standardization process follow the same meta-algorithm, but in different algebras or different encoding methods. They usually propose two ...
