Description

  • Speaker

    Christian Wieschebrink - BSI

In this talk a structural attack on the McEliece/Niederreiter public key cryptosystem based on subcodes of generalized Reed-Solomon (GRS) codes is presented. It allows the reconstruction of the private key for almost all practical parameter choices in polynomial time with high probability. The main step of the attack consists in constructing a related full GRS code from the subcode by componentwise multiplication of codewords. This allows the application of the Sidelnikov-Shestakov algorithm to recover the parameters of the GRS code.

    Je vais rappeler les travaux de Nuida et Ostrovski sur l'utilisation des groupes pour l'élaboration de schémas cryptographiques homomorphes. Je vais présenter nos travaux qui fournissent des encodages à la fois plus efficaces et plus généraux, et qui déterminent exactement quels groupes peuvent être utilisés.   Puis je vais discuter GRAFHEN, un protocole qui utilise ces idées. Je dirai juste[…]

    Robert recently described a powerful correspondence between certain (Hermitian) modules and (polarized) abelian varieties, which simultaneously generalizes both the class-group action underlying protocols such as CSIDH, and the Deuring correspondence, underlying protocols such as SQIsign. Using this correspondence, he also proposed how to construct a post-quantum NIKE, called MIKE, which, at a[…]
