Description
Simulatability has established itself as a salient notion for proving the security of multi-party protocols since it entails strong security and compositionality guarantees, which are achieved by universally quantifying over all environmental behaviors of the analyzed protocol. As a consequence, however, protocols that are secure except for certain environmental behaviors are not simulatable, even if these behaviors are efficiently identifiable and thus can be prevented by the surrounding protocol. We propose a relaxation of simulatability by conditioning the permitted environmental behaviors, i.e., simulation is only required for environmental behaviors that fulfill explicitly stated constraints. This yields a more fine-grained security definition that is achievable for several protocols for which unconditional simulatability is too strict a notion. Although imposing restrictions on the environment destroys unconditional composability in general, we show that composition of a large class of conditionally secure protocols yields conditionally simulatable protocols again. Moreover, for several commonly investigated protocol classes we show that their composition yields protocols that are simulatable in the standard, unconditional sense.

Key Attack on the ACDGV Matrix Encryption Scheme
Orateur : Anmoal Porwal - Technical University of Munich
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[…]-

Module Learning With Errors and Structured Extrapolated Dihedral Cosets
Orateur : Jinwei Zheng - Télécom Paris
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[…]-
