Miss in the Middle
Miss in the middle By: Gal Leonard Keret Miss in the Middle Attacks on IDEA, Khufu and Khafre • Written by: – Prof. Eli Biham. – Prof. Alex Biryukov. – Prof. Adi Shamir. Introduction • So far we used traditional differential which predict and detect statistical events of highest possible probability. Introduction • A new approach is to search for events with probability one, whose condition cannot be met together (events that never happen). Impossible Differential • Random permutation: 휎 푀0 = 푎푛푦 퐶 표푓 푠푖푧푒 푀0. • Cipher (not perfect): 퐸 푀0 = 푠표푚푒 퐶 표푓 푠푖푧푒 푀0. • Events (푚 ↛ 푐) that never happen distinguish a cipher from a random permutation. Impossible Differential • Impossible events (푚 ↛ 푐) can help performing key elimination. • All the keys that lead to impossibility are obviously wrong. • This way we can filter wrong key guesses and leaving the correct key. Enigma – for example • Some of the attacks on Enigma were based on the observation that letters can not be encrypted to themselves. 퐸푛푖푔푚푎(푀0) ≠ 푀0 In General • (푀0, 퐶1) is a pair. If 푀0 푀0 → 퐶1. • 푀 ↛ 퐶 . 0 0 Some rounds For any key • ∀ 푘푒푦| 퐶1 → 퐶0 ↛ is an impossible key. Cannot lead to 퐶0. Some rounds Find each keys Decrypt 퐶1back to 퐶0. IDEA • International Data Encryption Algorithm. • First described in 1991. • Block cipher. • Symmetric. • Key sizes: 128 bits. • Block sizes: 64 bits. ⊕ - XOR. ⊞ - Addition modulo 216 ⊙ - Multiplication modulo 216+1 Encryption security • Combination of different mathematical groups. • Creation of "incompatibility“: ∗ • 푍216+1 → 푍216 ∗ • 푍216 → 푍216+1 ∗ ∗ Remark: 푍216+1 doesn’t contain 0 like 푍216 , so in 푍216+1 0 will be converted to 216 since 0 ≡ 216(푚표푑 216). -

BIP Note 18 Binding Implementation Practice (BIP) Note
Superannuation Transaction Network BIP Note 18 Binding Implementation Practice (BIP) Note Title: TLS Configuration and Cryptography Date: 10 Nov 201 5 Standards Version: 1.0 Scope [ x ] transport layer Status: [ ] Draft [ ] message payload [x ] Ratified [ x ] security Live Date: 25 February 2016 On this date this BIP note will be binding on all participants 1. Change This document sets requirements for SSL/TLS configuration within the STN. 2. Reason for Change Secure message exchange within the STN is fully dependent on HTTPS protocol (HTTP over TLS). SSL 3.0 has existed for at least 15 years. It was superseded by TLS 1.0 which was in turn replaced by TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2. Cryptography standards used in SSL and early versions of TLS are now deprecated and do not provide sufficient level of security. Clause 6.6(a) of Superannuation Data and Gateway Services Standards for Gateway Operators transaction within the Superannuation Transaction Network document requires STN gateways to use “a minimum level of protection of Transport Layer Security (TLS) of version 1.1 or above”. Majority of the STN gateways supports TLS versions 1.0 through 1.2 at the server side (some gateways still support SSL 3.0). However, only a few gateways support modern TLS versions at the client side resulting majority of transactions within the STN being sent through TLS 1.0 channel. In order to eliminate vulnerabilities of the obsolete SSL/TLS protocols, SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 must be completely disabled. Mozilla Foundation recommends not to include TLS 1.0 into “Modern” configuration set for web- servers and limits its usage only for backward-compatibility purposes (given that STN is P2P network with a limited number of participants, backward-compatibility issue is not relevant). -

Meier, rapporteur Suisse 2012 To my two angels of God, my mother and father whom without their help, devotion, affection, love and support not only this dissertation could not be accomplished, but I was not able to put my feet one step forward towards improvement. Abstract Symmetric cryptographic primitives such as block and stream ciphers are the building blocks in many cryptographic protocols. Having such blocks which provide provable security against various types of attacks is often hard. On the other hand, if possible, such designs are often too costly to be implemented and are usually ignored by practitioners. Moreover, in RFID protocols or sensor networks, we need lightweight and ultra-lightweight algorithms. Hence, cryptographers often search for a fair trade-off between security and usability depending on the application. Contrary to public key primitives, which are often based on some hard problems, security in symmetric key is often based on some heuristic assumptions. Often, the researchers in this area argue that the security is based on the confidence level the community has in their design. Consequently, everyday symmetric protocols appear in the literature and stay secure until someone breaks them. -
SMPTE Standards Transition Issues for NIST/FIPS Requirements V1.1
SMPTE Standards Transition Issues for NIST/FIPS Requirements v1.1 2010.8.23 DRM inside, Taehyun Kim ETRI, Kisoon Yoon Contents 1 Introduction NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) published second draft special document 1 (SP 800-131, Recommendation for the Transitioning of Cryptographic Algorithms and Key Length) [28] in June, 2010. It includes transition recommendations through 9 items associated with the use of cryptography, whose purpose is to keep the security level being still higher as the more powerful computing techniques are available. The 9 items described in the SP 800-131 are: • Encryption (Sec. 2) • Digital Signature (Sec. 3) • Random Number Generation (Sec. 4) • Key Agreement Using Diffie-Hellman and MQV (Sec. 5) • Key Agreement and Key Transport Using RSA (Sec. 6) • Key Wrapping (Sec. 7) • GDIO Protocol (Sec 8.) • Deriving Additional Keys (Sec. 8) • Hash Function (Sec. 9) • Message Authentication Codes (Sec. 10) Currently, SMPTE documents2 refer to the FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standard) to use its cryptographic algorithms which are Secure Hash Standard (FIPS 180-1, 180-2) [1][2], Digital Signature Standard (FIPS 186-2, Jan. 2000) [4], Random Number Generation (FIPS 186-2, Jan. 2000), Advanced Encryption Standard (FIPS 197, Nov. 2001) [6] and Keyed-Hash Message Authentication Code (FIPS 198-1, Apr. 2002) [7]. As upgrade version of the FIPSs and new recommendation are published from the NIST, we need to consider impacts on the SMPTE standard documents. This report summarizes SMPTE documents in cryptographic point of view and new NIST requirements related to the cryptographic algorithm and strength to which SMPTE standards are referring. -
Miss in the Middle Attacks on IDEA and Khufu
Miss in the Middle Attacks on IDEA and Khufu Eli Biham? Alex Biryukov?? Adi Shamir??? Abstract. In a recent paper we developed a new cryptanalytic techni- que based on impossible differentials, and used it to attack the Skipjack encryption algorithm reduced from 32 to 31 rounds. In this paper we describe the application of this technique to the block ciphers IDEA and Khufu. In both cases the new attacks cover more rounds than the best currently known attacks. This demonstrates the power of the new cryptanalytic technique, shows that it is applicable to a larger class of cryptosystems, and develops new technical tools for applying it in new situations. 1 Introduction In [5,17] a new cryptanalytic technique based on impossible differentials was proposed, and its application to Skipjack [28] and DEAL [17] was described. In this paper we apply this technique to the IDEA and Khufu cryptosystems. Our new attacks are much more efficient and cover more rounds than the best previously known attacks on these ciphers. The main idea behind these new attacks is a bit counter-intuitive. Unlike tra- ditional differential and linear cryptanalysis which predict and detect statistical events of highest possible probability, our new approach is to search for events that never happen. Such impossible events are then used to distinguish the ci- pher from a random permutation, or to perform key elimination (a candidate key is obviously wrong if it leads to an impossible event). The fact that impossible events can be useful in cryptanalysis is an old idea (for example, some of the attacks on Enigma were based on the observation that letters can not be encrypted to themselves). -

Encryption Block Cipher
10/29/2007 Encryption Encryption Block Cipher Dr.Talal Alkharobi 2 Block Cipher A symmetric key cipher which operates on fixed-length groups of bits, termed blocks, with an unvarying transformation. When encrypting, a block cipher take n-bit block of plaintext as input, and output a corresponding n-bit block of ciphertext. The exact transformation is controlled using a secret key. Decryption is similar: the decryption algorithm takes n-bit block of ciphertext together with the secret key, and yields the original n-bit block of plaintext. Mode of operation is used to encrypt messages longer than the block size. 1 Dr.Talal Alkharobi 10/29/2007 Encryption 3 Encryption 4 Decryption 2 Dr.Talal Alkharobi 10/29/2007 Encryption 5 Block Cipher Consists of two algorithms, encryption, E, and decryption, D. Both require two inputs: n-bits block of data and key of size k bits, The output is an n-bit block. Decryption is the inverse function of encryption: D(E(B,K),K) = B For each key K, E is a permutation over the set of input blocks. n Each key K selects one permutation from the possible set of 2 !. 6 Block Cipher The block size, n, is typically 64 or 128 bits, although some ciphers have a variable block size. 64 bits was the most common length until the mid-1990s, when new designs began to switch to 128-bit. Padding scheme is used to allow plaintexts of arbitrary lengths to be encrypted. Typical key sizes (k) include 40, 56, 64, 80, 128, 192 and 256 bits.
