    PRACTICAL CRYPTANALYSIS OF REAL-WORLD SYSTEMS An Engineer’s Approach DISSERTATION zur Erlangung des Grades eines Doktor-Ingenieurs der Fakultät für Elektrotechnik und Informationstechnik an der Ruhr-Universität Bochum Benedikt Driessen Bochum, July 2013 Practical Cryptanalysis of Real-World Systems Thesis Advisor Prof. Christof Paar, Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Germany External Referee Prof. Ross Anderson, University of Cambridge, England Date of submission May 22, 2013 Date of defense July 9, 2013 Date of last revision July 16, 2013 To Ursula and Walter, my parents. iii Abstract This thesis is dedicated to the analysis of symmetric cryptographic algorithms. More specifically, this doc- ument focuses on proprietary constructions found in four globally distributed systems. All of these con- structions were uncovered by means of reverse engineering, three of them while working on this thesis, but only one by the author of this document. The recovered designs were subsequently analyzed and attacked. Targeted systems range from the GSM standard for mobile communication to the two major standards for satellite communication (GMR-1 and GMR-2) and finally a widely deployed digital locking system. Surpris- ingly, although much progress has been made in the area of specialized cryptography, our attacks on the newly reverse engineered systems show that even younger designs still suffer from severe design flaws. The GSM stream ciphers A5/1 and A5/2 were reverse engineered and cryptanalyzed more than a decade ago. While the published attacks can nowadays be implemented and executed in practice, they also inspired our research into alternative, more efficient hardware architectures. In this work, we first propose a design to solve linear equation systems with binary coefficients in an unconventional, but supposedly fast way.

  • NTRU Cryptosystem: Recent Developments and Emerging Mathematical Problems in Finite Polynomial Rings
    XXXX, 1–33 © De Gruyter YYYY NTRU Cryptosystem: Recent Developments and Emerging Mathematical Problems in Finite Polynomial Rings Ron Steinfeld Abstract. The NTRU public-key cryptosystem, proposed in 1996 by Hoffstein, Pipher and Silverman, is a fast and practical alternative to classical schemes based on factorization or discrete logarithms. In contrast to the latter schemes, it offers quasi-optimal asymptotic effi- ciency and conjectured security against quantum computing attacks. The scheme is defined over finite polynomial rings, and its security analysis involves the study of natural statistical and computational problems defined over these rings. We survey several recent developments in both the security analysis and in the applica- tions of NTRU and its variants, within the broader field of lattice-based cryptography. These developments include a provable relation between the security of NTRU and the computa- tional hardness of worst-case instances of certain lattice problems, and the construction of fully homomorphic and multilinear cryptographic algorithms. In the process, we identify the underlying statistical and computational problems in finite rings. Keywords. NTRU Cryptosystem, lattice-based cryptography, fully homomorphic encryption, multilinear maps. AMS classification. 68Q17, 68Q87, 68Q12, 11T55, 11T71, 11T22. 1 Introduction The NTRU public-key cryptosystem has attracted much attention by the cryptographic community since its introduction in 1996 by Hoffstein, Pipher and Silverman [32, 33]. Unlike more classical public-key cryptosystems based on the hardness of integer factorisation or the discrete logarithm over finite fields and elliptic curves, NTRU is based on the hardness of finding ‘small’ solutions to systems of linear equations over polynomial rings, and as a consequence is closely related to geometric problems on certain classes of high-dimensional Euclidean lattices.

  • State of the Art in Lightweight Symmetric Cryptography
    State of the Art in Lightweight Symmetric Cryptography Alex Biryukov1 and Léo Perrin2 1 SnT, CSC, University of Luxembourg, [email protected] 2 SnT, University of Luxembourg, [email protected] Abstract. Lightweight cryptography has been one of the “hot topics” in symmetric cryptography in the recent years. A huge number of lightweight algorithms have been published, standardized and/or used in commercial products. In this paper, we discuss the different implementation constraints that a “lightweight” algorithm is usually designed to satisfy. We also present an extensive survey of all lightweight symmetric primitives we are aware of. It covers designs from the academic community, from government agencies and proprietary algorithms which were reverse-engineered or leaked. Relevant national (nist...) and international (iso/iec...) standards are listed. We then discuss some trends we identified in the design of lightweight algorithms, namely the designers’ preference for arx-based and bitsliced-S-Box-based designs and simple key schedules. Finally, we argue that lightweight cryptography is too large a field and that it should be split into two related but distinct areas: ultra-lightweight and IoT cryptography. The former deals only with the smallest of devices for which a lower security level may be justified by the very harsh design constraints. The latter corresponds to low-power embedded processors for which the Aes and modern hash function are costly but which have to provide a high level security due to their greater connectivity. Keywords: Lightweight cryptography · Ultra-Lightweight · IoT · Internet of Things · SoK · Survey · Standards · Industry 1 Introduction The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the foremost buzzwords in computer science and information technology at the time of writing.

    The Early Days of RSA -- History and Lessons Ronald L. Rivest MIT Lab for Computer Science ACM Turing Award Lecture Lessons Learned Try to solve “real-world” problems … using computer science theory … and number theory. Be optimistic: do the “impossible”. Invention of RSA. Moore’s Law matters. Do cryptography in public. Crypto theory matters. Organizations matter: ACM, IACR, RSA Try to solve real-world problems Diffie and Hellman published “New Directions in Cryptography” Nov ’76: “We stand today at the brink of a revolution in cryptography.” Proposed “Public-Key Cryptosystem” . (This remarkable idea developed jointly with Merkle.) Introduced even more remarkable notion of digital signatures. Good cryptography is motivated by applications. (e-commerce, mental poker, voting, auctions, …) … using computer science theory In 1976 “complexity theory” and “algorithms” were just beginning… Cryptography is a “theory consumer”: it needs – easy problems (such as multiplication or prime-finding, for the “good guys”) and – hard problems (such as factorization, to defeat an adversary). …and number theory Diffie/Hellman used number theory for “key agreement” (two parties agree on a secret key, using exponentiation modulo a prime number). Some algebraic structure seemed essential for a PKC; we kept returning to number theory and modular arithmetic… Difficulty of factoring not well studied then, but seemed hard… Be optimistic: do the “impossible” Diffie and Hellman left open the problem of realizing a PKC: D(E(M)) = E(D(M)) = M where E is public, D is private. At times, we thought it impossible… Since then, we have learned “Meta-theorem of Cryptography”: Any apparently contradictory set of requirements can be met using right mathematical approach… Invention of RSA Tried and discarded many approaches, including some “knapsack-based” ones.

  • Time for a Paradigm Shift in Our Disciplinary Culture?
    Time for a Paradigm Shift in Our Disciplinary Culture? Neal Koblitz Department of Mathematics, University of Washington [email protected] 1 Introduction The well-known KISS principle of engineering | Keep It Simple, Stupid! | is also of value in cryptography. In certain subfields, such as lattice-based crypto and indistinguishability obfuscation, the proposed constructions pay little heed to the KISS principle. Even the descriptions of the proper functioning of the protocols are frightfully complicated (by comparison with RSA or ECC, for example), and the security analyses and guidelines for parameter selection are even more problematic. But even something as wonderful as the KISS principle can be taken too far, as I learned to my chagrin during my early years of work in cryptography. In the late 1980s, when I wrote or spoke about ECC, I wanted to use the simplest possible examples, and these were the supersingular curves. For instance, just take the equation y2 = x3 − x over a field of p elements with p ≡ 3 (mod 4) or else y2 = x3 − 1 with p ≡ 2 (mod 3), where p is chosen so that respectively (p + 1)=4 or (p + 1)=6 is prime. As long as log2 p ≥ 163 we would have 80 bits of security, which at the time was enough. A few years later, Menezes{Okamoto{Vanstone [14] showed that the discrete log problem (DLP) on such a curve can be reduced to the DLP in the finite field of p2 elements, and even in the early 1990s this was insecure. A short time later, when I proposed Hyperelliptic Curve Cryptography (HCC), I again made a very erroneous judgment about parameter selection.

  • Armed SPHINCS Computing a 41 KB Signature in 16 KB of RAM
    ARMed SPHINCS Computing a 41 KB signature in 16 KB of RAM Andreas Hülsing1, Joost Rijneveld2, and Peter Schwabe2 1 Technische Universiteit Eindhoven, Department of Mathematics and Computer Science, P.O. Box 513, 5600 MB Eindhoven, The Netherlands [email protected] 2 Radboud University, Digital Security Group, P.O. Box 9010, 6500 GL Nijmegen, The Netherlands [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. This paper shows that it is feasible to implement the state- less hash-based signature scheme SPHINCS-256 on an embedded mi- croprocessor with memory even smaller than a signature and limited computing power. We demonstrate that it is possible to generate and verify the 41 KB signature on an ARM Cortex M3 that only has 16 KB of memory available. We provide benchmarks for our implementation which show that this can be used in practice. To analyze the costs of using the stateless SPHINCS scheme instead of its stateful alternatives, we also implement XMSSMT on this platform and give a comparison. Keywords: post-quantum cryptography, hash-based signature schemes, microcontroller, resource-constrained devices, ARM Cortex M3, SPHINCS- 256, XMSSMT 1 Introduction It is dicult to precisely predict the future of computing, but once large-scale quantum computers become feasible in practice, all of the asymmetric cryptogra- phy that is widely deployed today will be broken. Over the past few years, several schemes have been proposed that address this issue. One of the most promis- ing classes of schemes that provide post-quantum secure digital signatures are hash-based schemes [21]. Hash-based schemes come with well-understood security guarantees, build- ing only on the assumption of a secure cryptographic hash function.
