Cryptanalysis of Feistel Networks with Secret Round Functions ? Alex Biryukov1, Gaëtan Leurent2, and Léo Perrin3 1 [email protected], University of Luxembourg 2 [email protected], Inria, France 3 [email protected], SnT,University of Luxembourg Abstract. Generic distinguishers against Feistel Network with up to 5 rounds exist in the regular setting and up to 6 rounds in a multi-key setting. We present new cryptanalyses against Feistel Networks with 5, 6 and 7 rounds which are not simply distinguishers but actually recover completely the unknown Feistel functions. When an exclusive-or is used to combine the output of the round function with the other branch, we use the so-called yoyo game which we improved using a heuristic based on particular cycle structures. -
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]. -
Impossible Differentials in Twofish
Twofish Technical Report #5 Impossible differentials in Twofish Niels Ferguson∗ October 19, 1999 Abstract We show how an impossible-differential attack, first applied to DEAL by Knudsen, can be applied to Twofish. This attack breaks six rounds of the 256-bit key version using 2256 steps; it cannot be extended to seven or more Twofish rounds.

Related-Key Statistical Cryptanalysis
Related-Key Statistical Cryptanalysis Darakhshan J. Mir∗ Poorvi L. Vora Department of Computer Science, Department of Computer Science, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey George Washington University July 6, 2007 Abstract This paper presents the Cryptanalytic Channel Model (CCM). The model treats statistical key recovery as communication over a low capacity channel, where the channel and the encoding are determined by the cipher and the specific attack. A new attack, related-key recovery – the use of n related keys generated from k independent ones – is defined for all ciphers vulnera- ble to single-key recovery. Unlike classical related-key attacks such as differential related-key cryptanalysis, this attack does not exploit a special structural weakness in the cipher or key schedule, but amplifies the weakness exploited in the basic single key recovery. The related- key-recovery attack is shown to correspond to the use of a concatenated code over the channel, where the relationship among the keys determines the outer code, and the cipher and the attack the inner code. It is shown that there exists a relationship among keys for which the communi- cation complexity per bit of independent key is finite, for any probability of key recovery error. This may be compared to the unbounded communication complexity per bit of the single-key- recovery attack. The practical implications of this result are demonstrated through experiments on reduced-round DES.

Related-Key Cryptanalysis of 3-WAY, Biham-DES,CAST, DES-X, Newdes, RC2, and TEA
Related-Key Cryptanalysis of 3-WAY, Biham-DES,CAST, DES-X, NewDES, RC2, and TEA John Kelsey Bruce Schneier David Wagner Counterpane Systems U.C. Berkeley kelsey,schneier @counterpane.com [email protected] f g Abstract. We present new related-key attacks on the block ciphers 3- WAY, Biham-DES, CAST, DES-X, NewDES, RC2, and TEA. Differen- tial related-key attacks allow both keys and plaintexts to be chosen with specific differences [KSW96]. Our attacks build on the original work, showing how to adapt the general attack to deal with the difficulties of the individual algorithms. We also give specific design principles to protect against these attacks. 1 Introduction Related-key cryptanalysis assumes that the attacker learns the encryption of certain plaintexts not only under the original (unknown) key K, but also under some derived keys K0 = f(K). In a chosen-related-key attack, the attacker specifies how the key is to be changed; known-related-key attacks are those where the key difference is known, but cannot be chosen by the attacker. We emphasize that the attacker knows or chooses the relationship between keys, not the actual key values. These techniques have been developed in [Knu93b, Bih94, KSW96]. Related-key cryptanalysis is a practical attack on key-exchange protocols that do not guarantee key-integrity|an attacker may be able to flip bits in the key without knowing the key|and key-update protocols that update keys using a known function: e.g., K, K + 1, K + 2, etc. Related-key attacks were also used against rotor machines: operators sometimes set rotors incorrectly. -
Simple Substitution and Caesar Ciphers
Spring 2015 Chris Christensen MAT/CSC 483 Simple Substitution Ciphers The art of writing secret messages – intelligible to those who are in possession of the key and unintelligible to all others – has been studied for centuries. The usefulness of such messages, especially in time of war, is obvious; on the other hand, their solution may be a matter of great importance to those from whom the key is concealed. But the romance connected with the subject, the not uncommon desire to discover a secret, and the implied challenge to the ingenuity of all from who it is hidden have attracted to the subject the attention of many to whom its utility is a matter of indifference. Abraham Sinkov In Mathematical Recreations & Essays By W.W. Rouse Ball and H.S.M. Coxeter, c. 1938 We begin our study of cryptology from the romantic point of view – the point of view of someone who has the “not uncommon desire to discover a secret” and someone who takes up the “implied challenged to the ingenuity” that is tossed down by secret writing. We begin with one of the most common classical ciphers: simple substitution. A simple substitution cipher is a method of concealment that replaces each letter of a plaintext message with another letter. Here is the key to a simple substitution cipher: Plaintext letters: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz Ciphertext letters: EKMFLGDQVZNTOWYHXUSPAIBRCJ The key gives the correspondence between a plaintext letter and its replacement ciphertext letter. (It is traditional to use small letters for plaintext and capital letters, or small capital letters, for ciphertext. We will not use small capital letters for ciphertext so that plaintext and ciphertext letters will line up vertically.) Using this key, every plaintext letter a would be replaced by ciphertext E, every plaintext letter e by L, etc. -

On the Decorrelated Fast Cipher (DFC) and Its Theory
On the Decorrelated Fast Cipher (DFC) and Its Theory Lars R. Knudsen and Vincent Rijmen ? Department of Informatics, University of Bergen, N-5020 Bergen Abstract. In the first part of this paper the decorrelation theory of Vaudenay is analysed. It is shown that the theory behind the propo- sed constructions does not guarantee security against state-of-the-art differential attacks. In the second part of this paper the proposed De- correlated Fast Cipher (DFC), a candidate for the Advanced Encryption Standard, is analysed. It is argued that the cipher does not obtain prova- ble security against a differential attack. Also, an attack on DFC reduced to 6 rounds is given. 1 Introduction In [6,7] a new theory for the construction of secret-key block ciphers is given. The notion of decorrelation to the order d is defined. Let C be a block cipher with block size m and C∗ be a randomly chosen permutation in the same message space. If C has a d-wise decorrelation equal to that of C∗, then an attacker who knows at most d − 1 pairs of plaintexts and ciphertexts cannot distinguish between C and C∗. So, the cipher C is “secure if we use it only d−1 times” [7]. It is further noted that a d-wise decorrelated cipher for d = 2 is secure against both a basic linear and a basic differential attack. For the latter, this basic attack is as follows. A priori, two values a and b are fixed. Pick two plaintexts of difference a and get the corresponding ciphertexts. -

Smid Formerly: Computer Security Division, National Institute of Standards and Technology, Gaithersburg, MD 20899, USA [email protected] Strong cryptographic algorithms are essential for the protection of stored and transmitted data throughout the world. This publication discusses the development of Federal Information Processing Standards Publication (FIPS) 197, which specifies a cryptographic algorithm known as the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). The AES was the result of a cooperative multiyear effort involving the U.S. government, industry, and the academic community. Several difficult problems that had to be resolved during the standard’s development are discussed, and the eventual solutions are presented. The author writes from his viewpoint as former leader of the Security Technology Group and later as acting director of the Computer Security Division at the National Institute of Standards and Technology, where he was responsible for the AES development.

A Tutorial on the Implementation of Block Ciphers: Software and Hardware Applications
A Tutorial on the Implementation of Block Ciphers: Software and Hardware Applications Howard M. Heys Memorial University of Newfoundland, St. John's, Canada email: [email protected] Dec. 10, 2020 2 Abstract In this article, we discuss basic strategies that can be used to implement block ciphers in both software and hardware environments. As models for discussion, we use substitution- permutation networks which form the basis for many practical block cipher structures. For software implementation, we discuss approaches such as table lookups and bit-slicing, while for hardware implementation, we examine a broad range of architectures from high speed structures like pipelining, to compact structures based on serialization. To illustrate different implementation concepts, we present example data associated with specific methods and discuss sample designs that can be employed to realize different implementation strategies. We expect that the article will be of particular interest to researchers, scientists, and engineers that are new to the field of cryptographic implementation. 3 4 Terminology and Notation Abbreviation Definition SPN substitution-permutation network IoT Internet of Things AES Advanced Encryption Standard ECB electronic codebook mode CBC cipher block chaining mode CTR counter mode CMOS complementary metal-oxide semiconductor ASIC application-specific integrated circuit FPGA field-programmable gate array Table 1: Abbreviations Used in Article 5 6 Variable Definition B plaintext/ciphertext block size (also, size of cipher state) κ number -
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.
