Description
A novel side-channel-based reverse engineering technique is introduced, capable of reconstructing a procedure solely from inputs, outputs, and traces of execution. Beyond generic restrictions, no prior knowledge of the procedure or the chip it operates on is assumed. These restrictions confine the analysis to 8-bit RISC constant-time software implementations. Specifically, the feasibility of reconstructing a symmetric cryptographic cipher is demonstrated, even in scenarios where traces are sampled with information loss and noise, such as when measuring the power consumption of the chip.

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[…]-
