Description

  • Speaker

    Christian Wieschebrink - BSI

In this talk a structural attack on the McEliece/Niederreiter public key cryptosystem based on subcodes of generalized Reed-Solomon (GRS) codes is presented. It allows the reconstruction of the private key for almost all practical parameter choices in polynomial time with high probability. The main step of the attack consists in constructing a related full GRS code from the subcode by componentwise multiplication of codewords. This allows the application of the Sidelnikov-Shestakov algorithm to recover the parameters of the GRS code.

    The Fiat-Shamir with Aborts paradigm (FSwA) uses rejection sampling to remove a secret’s dependency on a given source distribution.  Recent results revealed that unlike the uniform distribution in the hypercube, both the continuous Gaussian and the uniform distribution within the hypersphere minimise the rejection rate and the size of the proof of knowledge. However, in practice both these[…]
