In this work, we apply the rebound attack to the AES based SHA-3 candidate LANE. The hash function LANE uses a permutation based compression function, consisting of a linear message expansion and 6 parallel lanes. In the rebound attack on LANE, we apply several new techniques to construct a collision for the full compression function of LANE-256 and LANE-512. Using a relatively sparse truncated differential path, we are able to solve for a valid message expansion and colliding lanes independently. Additionally, we are able to apply the inbound phase more than once by exploiting the degrees of freedom in the parallel AES states. This allows us to construct semi-free-start collisions for full LANE-256 with $2^{96}$ compression function evaluations and $2^{88}$ memory, and for full LANE-512 with $2^{224}$ compression function evaluations and $2^{128}$ memory. This is a joint work with K. Matusiewicz, I. Nikolic, Y. Sasaki and M. Schläffer.

    From secure communications to online banking, cryptography is the cornerstone of most modern secure applications. Unfortunately, cryptographic design and implementation is notoriously error-prone, with a long history of design flaws, implementation bugs, and high-profile attacks. To address this issue, several projects proposed the use of formal verification techniques to statically ensure the[…]

    In joint work with Koen de Boer, Aurel Page, and Benjamin Wesolowski, we study the hardness of the approximate Shortest Independent Vectors Problem (SIVP) for random module lattices. We use here a natural notion of randomness as defined originally by Siegel through Haar measures. By proving a reduction, we show it is essentially as hard as the problem for arbitrary instances. While this was[…]

    Speaker : Min-Yi Shen - No Affiliation

    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[…]
