Pairing-based cryptography is popular among the cryptographic protocol researchers for its eccentric provable security. Protocol side researchers often see pairing as a black box. They often need to test the correctness of their proposal. Typically, mathematicians and cryptography engineers try to make the underlying operations of pairing-based crypto efficient. In addition, different types of pairing and pairing-friendly curves have varying pros and cons with respect to the design of protocol and parameter. All these led us to make a distributable and efficient library that will incorporate various pairing-friendly curves with the different security levels. In this talk, I will share the path we followed to make such library for all who are working directly or indirectly with pairing-based cryptography.

    I will present our key-recovery attack on the ACDGV public-key encryption scheme proposed at ASIACRYPT 2024 by Aragon, Couvreur, Dyseryn, Gaborit, and Vinçotte. The secret key is a Gabidulin code hidden by appending random rows and columns and by left- and right-multiplication with invertible matrices. Our attack exploits the resulting algebraic structure to recover an equivalent secret key. It[…]

    The Module Learning With Errors (MLWE) problem is the fundamental hardness assumption underlying the key encapsulation and signature schemes ML-KEM and ML-DSA, which have been selected by NIST for post-quantum cryptography standardization. Understanding its quantum hardness is crucial for assessing the security of these standardized schemes.   Inspired by the equivalence between LWE and[…]
