In this talk I will introduce a new kind of attack on cryptosystems which can be represented by an (unknown) low degree polynomial with tweakable public variables such as a plaintext or IV and fixed secret variables such as a key. Its complexity is exponential in the degree but only polynomial in the key size, and it was successfully applied to several concrete schemes. In particular, for Trivium with 672 initialization rounds, it reduces the complexity of the best known attack from a barely practical 2^{55} to a trivial 2^{19}, which can recover the full key in less than a second on a single PC.

    Is module-lattice reduction better than unstructured lattice reduction? This question was highlighted as `Q8' in the Kyber NIST standardization submission (Avanzi et al., 2021), as potentially affecting the concrete security of Kyber and other module-lattice-based schemes. Foundational works on module-lattice reduction (Lee, Pellet-Mary, Stehlé, and Wallet, ASIACRYPT 2019; Mukherjee and Stephens[…]

    The threat of quantum computers motivates the introduction of new hard problems for cryptography.One promising candidate is the Isogeny problem: given two elliptic curves, compute a “nice’’ map between them, called an isogeny.In this talk, we study classical attacks on this problem, specialised to supersingular elliptic curves, on which the security of current isogeny-based cryptography relies. In[…]
