Description
In this talk, I will discuss the decoding of Gabidulin and related codes from a cryptographic point of view, pointing out that these codes can be decoded solely from the knowledge of a generator matrix. I will also present an extension of Gibson and Overbeck attacks on the generalized GPT encryption scheme (instantiated with the Gabidulin code) for different ranks of the distortion matrix. Finally we will see how we can apply this attack to the case of an instantiation with twisted Gabidulin codes. This is a joint work with Alain Couvreur.

One of the fundamental hardness assumptions underlying isogeny-based cryptography is the problem of finding a non-trivial endomorphism of a given supersingular elliptic curve. In this talk, we show that the problem is related to the problem of finding a splitting of a principally polarised superspecial abelian surface. In particular, we provide formal security reductions and a proof-of-concept[…]-
