Towards Optimal Differential Attacks on FLY and PIPO
Insung Kim, Seonggyeom Kim, Sunyeop Kim, Donggeun Kwon, Hanbeom Shin, Dongjae Lee, Deukjo Hong, Jaechul Sung, Seokhie Hong
Secret-key cryptography
Lightweight block ciphers such as PIPO and FLY are designed to operate efficiently and securely in constrained environments. While the differential attack on PIPO-64-128 has already been studied by the designers, no concrete differential attack had been conducted for PIPO-64-256 and FLY. Motivated by this gap, we revisit the security of PIPO against differential attacks and generalize the analysis framework to make it applicable to structurally related ciphers. Based on this generalized...
Simplified Modeling of MITM Attacks for Block Ciphers: new (Quantum) Attacks
André Schrottenloher, Marc Stevens
Attacks and cryptanalysis
The meet-in-the-middle (MITM) technique has led to many key-recovery attacks on block ciphers and preimage attacks on hash functions. Nowadays, cryptographers use automatic tools that reduce the search of MITM attacks to an optimization problem. Bao et al. (EUROCRYPT 2021) introduced a low-level modeling based on Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) for MITM attacks on hash functions, which was extended to key-recovery attacks by Dong et al. (CRYPTO 2021). However, the modeling only...
SoK: Modeling for Large S-boxes Oriented to Differential Probabilities and Linear Correlations (Long Paper)
Ling Sun, Meiqin Wang
Attacks and cryptanalysis
Automatic methods for differential and linear characteristic search are well-established at the moment. Typically, the designers of novel ciphers also give preliminary analytical findings for analysing the differential and linear properties using automatic techniques. However, neither MILP-based nor SAT/SMT-based approaches have fully resolved the problem of searching for actual differential and linear characteristics of ciphers with large S-boxes. To tackle the issue, we present three...
Modeling Large S-box in MILP and a (Related-key) Differential Attack on Full Round PIPO-64/128
Tarun Yadav, Manoj Kumar
Secret-key cryptography
Mixed integer linear programming (MILP) based tools are used to estimate the strength of block ciphers against the cryptanalytic attacks. The existing tools use partial difference distribution table (p-DDT) approach to optimize the probability of differential characteristics for large (≥8-bit) S-box based ciphers. We propose to use the full difference distribution table (DDT) with the probability of each possible propagation for MILP modeling of large S-boxes. This requires more than 16...
Differential Fault Attack on Lightweight Block Cipher PIPO
SeongHyuck Lim, JaeSeung Han, Tae-Ho Lee, Dong-Guk Han
Secret-key cryptography
With the recent development of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, related security issues are also increasing. In particular, the possibility of accessing and hijacking cryptographic devices is also increasing due to the rapid increase in usage of these devices. Therefore, research on cryptographic technologies that can provide a safe environment even in resource-constrained environments has been actively conducted. Among them, there are increasing security issues of side-channel analysis for...
A New Method for Designing Lightweight S-boxes with High Differential and Linear Branch Numbers, and Its Application
Hangi Kim, Yongjin Jeon, Giyoon Kim, Jongsung Kim, Bo-Yeon Sim, Dong-Guk Han, Hwajeong Seo, Seonggyeom Kim, Seokhie Hong, Jaechul Sung, Deukjo Hong
Secret-key cryptography
Bit permutations are efficient linear functions often used for lightweight cipher designs. However, they have low diffusion effects, compared to word-oriented binary and MDS matrices. Thus, the security of bit permutation-based ciphers is significantly affected by differential and linear branch numbers (DBN and LBN) of nonlinear functions. In this paper, we introduce a widely applicable method for constructing S-boxes with high DBN and LBN. Our method exploits constructions of S-boxes from...
