    Victor Cauchois - DGA et IRMAR

Grostl est une fonction de hachage finaliste de la compétition SHA-3. Elle est dotée d'une preuve de sécurité qui assure sa résistance aux attaques en collision, pré-image et seconde pré-image sous l'hypothèse que deux permutations internes sont idéales. Ces permutations, 14 tours d'un SPN, calques de l'AES, présentent une structure sensible aux attaques rebond. Ces attaques sont des attaques différentielles qui permettent de créer un distingueur, un algorithme qui prouve le caractère non idéal de la permutation et annule la preuve de sécurité. Grâce à l'utilisation de solveur de systèmes linéaires sous contraintes, il est possible de faire émerger des différentielles très structurées. L'utilisation de la représentation en Super SBOX et de trois algorithmes de fusion de listes permettent alors de réaliser une attaque sur une version à 12 tours des permutations internes en 2^{72}.

  • Lie algebras and the security of cryptosystems based on classical varieties in disguise

    • November 07, 2025 (13:45 - 14:45)

    • IRMAR - Université de Rennes - Campus Beaulieu Bat. 22, RDC, Rennes - Amphi Lebesgue

    Speaker : Mingjie Chen - KU Leuven

    In 2006, de Graaf et al. proposed a strategy based on Lie algebras for finding a linear transformation in the projective linear group that connects two linearly equivalent projective varieties defined over the rational numbers. Their method succeeds for several families of “classical” varieties, such as Veronese varieties, which are known to have large automorphism groups.   In this talk, we[…]

  • Some applications of linear programming to Dilithium

    • November 14, 2025 (13:45 - 14:45)

    • IRMAR - Université de Rennes - Campus Beaulieu Bat. 22, RDC, Rennes - Amphi Lebesgue

    Speaker : Paco AZEVEDO OLIVEIRA - Thales & UVSQ

    Dilithium is a signature algorithm, considered post-quantum, and recently standardized under the name ML-DSA by NIST. Due to its security and performance, it is recommended in most use cases.   During this presentation, I will outline the main ideas behind two studies, conducted in collaboration with Andersson Calle-Vierra, Benoît Cogliati, and Louis Goubin, which provide a better understanding of[…]
  • Wagner’s Algorithm Provably Runs in Subexponential Time for SIS^∞

    • November 21, 2025 (13:45 - 14:45)

    • Salle Guernesey à l'ISTIC

    Speaker : Johanna Loyer - Inria Saclay

    At CRYPTO 2015, Kirchner and Fouque claimed that a carefully tuned variant of the Blum-Kalai-Wasserman (BKW) algorithm (JACM 2003) should solve the Learning with Errors problem (LWE) in slightly subexponential time for modulus q = poly(n) and narrow error distribution, when given enough LWE samples. Taking a modular view, one may regard BKW as a combination of Wagner’s algorithm (CRYPTO 2002), run[…]

  • CryptoVerif: a computationally-sound security protocol verifier

    • November 28, 2025 (13:45 - 14:45)

    • Batiment 32B salle 12

    Speaker : Bruno Blanchet - Inria

    CryptoVerif is a security protocol verifier sound in the computational model of cryptography. It produces proofs by sequences of games, like those done manually by cryptographers. It has an automatic proof strategy and can also be guided by the user. It provides a generic method for specifying security assumptions on many cryptographic primitives, and can prove secrecy, authentication, and[…]

  • Structured-Seed Local Pseudorandom Generators and their Applications

    • December 05, 2025 (13:45 - 14:45)

    • IRMAR - Université de Rennes - Campus Beaulieu Bat. 22, RDC, Rennes - Amphi Lebesgue

    Speaker : Nikolas Melissaris - IRIF

    We introduce structured‑seed local pseudorandom generators (SSL-PRGs), pseudorandom generators whose seed is drawn from an efficiently sampleable, structured distribution rather than uniformly. This seemingly modest relaxation turns out to capture many known applications of local PRGs, yet it can be realized from a broader family of hardness assumptions. Our main technical contribution is a[…]
