Integral Cryptanalysis on Full MISTY1⋆
Integral Cryptanalysis on Full MISTY1? Yosuke Todo NTT Secure Platform Laboratories, Tokyo, Japan [email protected] Abstract. MISTY1 is a block cipher designed by Matsui in 1997. It was well evaluated and standardized by projects, such as CRYPTREC, ISO/IEC, and NESSIE. In this paper, we propose a key recovery attack on the full MISTY1, i.e., we show that 8-round MISTY1 with 5 FL layers does not have 128-bit security. Many attacks against MISTY1 have been proposed, but there is no attack against the full MISTY1. Therefore, our attack is the first cryptanalysis against the full MISTY1. We construct a new integral characteristic by using the propagation characteristic of the division property, which was proposed in 2015. We first improve the division property by optimizing a public S-box and then construct a 6-round integral characteristic on MISTY1. Finally, we recover the secret key of the full MISTY1 with 263:58 chosen plaintexts and 2121 time complexity. Moreover, if we can use 263:994 chosen plaintexts, the time complexity for our attack is reduced to 2107:9. Note that our cryptanalysis is a theoretical attack. Therefore, the practical use of MISTY1 will not be affected by our attack. Keywords: MISTY1, Integral attack, Division property 1 Introduction MISTY [Mat97] is a block cipher designed by Matsui in 1997 and is based on the theory of provable security [Nyb94,NK95] against differential attack [BS90] and linear attack [Mat93]. MISTY has a recursive structure, and the component function has a unique structure, the so-called MISTY structure [Mat96]. -

Cryptanalysis of Substitution-Permutation Networks Using Key-Dependent Degeneracy*
Cryptanalysis of Substitution-Permutation Networks Using Key-Dependent Degeneracy* Howard M. Heys Electrical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science Memorial University of Newfoundland St. John’s, Newfoundland, Canada A1B 3X5 Stafford E.Tavares Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada K7L 3N6 * This research was supported by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada and the Telecommunications Research Institute of Ontario and was completed during the first author’s doctoral studies at Queen’s University. Cryptanalysis of Substitution-Permutation Networks Using Key-Dependent Degeneracy Keywords Ð Cryptanalysis, Substitution-Permutation Network, S-box Abstract Ð This paper presents a novel cryptanalysis of Substitution- Permutation Networks using a chosen plaintext approach. The attack is based on the highly probable occurrence of key-dependent degeneracies within the network and is applicable regardless of the method of S-box keying. It is shown that a large number of rounds are required before a network is re- sistant to the attack. Experimental results have found 64-bit networks to be cryptanalyzable for as many as 8 to 12 rounds depending on the S-box properties. ¡ . Introduction The concept of Substitution-Permutation Networks (SPNs) for use in block cryp- tosystem design originates from the “confusion” and “diffusion” principles in- troduced by Shannon [1]. The SPN architecture considered in this paper was first suggested by Feistel [2] and consists of rounds of non-linear substitutions (S-boxes) connected by bit permutations. Such a cryptosystem structure, referred 1 to as LUCIFER1 by Feistel, is a simple, efficient implementation of Shannon’s concepts. -
Towards the Generation of a Dynamic Key-Dependent S-Box to Enhance Security
Towards the Generation of a Dynamic Key-Dependent S-Box to Enhance Security 1 Grasha Jacob, 2 Dr. A. Murugan, 3Irine Viola 1Research and Development Centre, Bharathiar University, Coimbatore – 641046, India, [email protected] [Assoc. Prof., Dept. of Computer Science, Rani Anna Govt College for Women, Tirunelveli] 2 Assoc. Prof., Dept. of Computer Science, Dr. Ambedkar Govt Arts College, Chennai, India 3Assoc. Prof., Dept. of Computer Science, Womens Christian College, Nagercoil, India E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Secure transmission of message was the concern of early men. Several techniques have been developed ever since to assure that the message is understandable only by the sender and the receiver while it would be meaningless to others. In this century, cryptography has gained much significance. This paper proposes a scheme to generate a Dynamic Key-dependent S-Box for the SubBytes Transformation used in Cryptographic Techniques. Keywords: Hamming weight, Hamming Distance, confidentiality, Dynamic Key dependent S-Box 1. INTRODUCTION Today communication networks transfer enormous volume of data. Information related to healthcare, defense and business transactions are either confidential or private and warranting security has become more and more challenging as many communication channels are arbitrated by attackers. Cryptographic techniques allow the sender and receiver to communicate secretly by transforming a plain message into meaningless form and then retransforming that back to its original form. Confidentiality is the foremost objective of cryptography. Even though cryptographic systems warrant security to sensitive information, various methods evolve every now and then like mushroom to crack and crash the cryptographic systems. NSA-approved Data Encryption Standard published in 1977 gained quick worldwide adoption. -

The SKINNY Family of Block Ciphers and Its Low-Latency Variant MANTIS (Full Version)
The SKINNY Family of Block Ciphers and its Low-Latency Variant MANTIS (Full Version) Christof Beierle1, J´er´emy Jean2, Stefan K¨olbl3, Gregor Leander1, Amir Moradi1, Thomas Peyrin2, Yu Sasaki4, Pascal Sasdrich1, and Siang Meng Sim2 1 Horst G¨ortzInstitute for IT Security, Ruhr-Universit¨atBochum, Germany [email protected] 2 School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences Nanyang Technological University, Singapore [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] 3 DTU Compute, Technical University of Denmark, Denmark [email protected] 4 NTT Secure Platform Laboratories, Japan [email protected] Abstract. We present a new tweakable block cipher family SKINNY, whose goal is to compete with NSA recent design SIMON in terms of hardware/software perfor- mances, while proving in addition much stronger security guarantees with regards to differential/linear attacks. In particular, unlike SIMON, we are able to provide strong bounds for all versions, and not only in the single-key model, but also in the related-key or related-tweak model. SKINNY has flexible block/key/tweak sizes and can also benefit from very efficient threshold implementations for side-channel protection. Regarding performances, it outperforms all known ciphers for ASIC round-based implementations, while still reaching an extremely small area for serial implementations and a very good efficiency for software and micro-controllers im- plementations (SKINNY has the smallest total number of AND/OR/XOR gates used for encryption process). Secondly, we present MANTIS, a dedicated variant of SKINNY for low-latency imple- mentations, that constitutes a very efficient solution to the problem of designing a tweakable block cipher for memory encryption. -

Fast Correlation Attacks: Methods and Countermeasures
Fast Correlation Attacks: Methods and Countermeasures Willi Meier FHNW, Switzerland Abstract. Fast correlation attacks have considerably evolved since their first appearance. They have lead to new design criteria of stream ciphers, and have found applications in other areas of communications and cryp- tography. In this paper, a review of the development of fast correlation attacks and their implications on the design of stream ciphers over the past two decades is given. Keywords: stream cipher, cryptanalysis, correlation attack. 1 Introduction In recent years, much effort has been put into a better understanding of the design and security of stream ciphers. Stream ciphers have been designed to be efficient either in constrained hardware or to have high efficiency in software. A synchronous stream cipher generates a pseudorandom sequence, the keystream, by a finite state machine whose initial state is determined as a function of the secret key and a public variable, the initialization vector. In an additive stream cipher, the ciphertext is obtained by bitwise addition of the keystream to the plaintext. We focus here on stream ciphers that are designed using simple devices like linear feedback shift registers (LFSRs). Such designs have been the main tar- get of correlation attacks. LFSRs are easy to implement and run efficiently in hardware. However such devices produce predictable output, and cannot be used directly for cryptographic applications. A common method aiming at destroy- ing the predictability of the output of such devices is to use their output as input of suitably designed non-linear functions that produce the keystream. As the attacks to be described later show, care has to be taken in the choice of these functions. -

Gallagher, Deputy Director NISTIR 7620: Status Report on the First Round of the SHA-3 Cryptographic Hash Algorithm Competition Abstract The National Institute of Standards and Technology is in the process of selecting a new cryptographic hash algorithm through a public competition. The new hash algorithm will be referred to as “SHA-3” and will complement the SHA-2 hash algorithms currently specified in FIPS 180-3, Secure Hash Standard. In October, 2008, 64 candidate algorithms were submitted to NIST for consideration. Among these, 51 met the minimum acceptance criteria and were accepted as First-Round Candidates on Dec. 10, 2008, marking the beginning of the First Round of the SHA-3 cryptographic hash algorithm competition. This report describes the evaluation criteria and selection process, based on public feedback and internal review of the first-round candidates, and summarizes the 14 candidate algorithms announced on July 24, 2009 for moving forward to the second round of the competition. The 14 Second-Round Candidates are BLAKE, BLUE MIDNIGHT WISH, CubeHash, ECHO, Fugue, Grøstl, Hamsi, JH, Keccak, Luffa, Shabal, SHAvite-3, SIMD, and Skein.
