Description
Public key cryptography relies on using mathematical functions that are easy to compute but hard to invert. A recent work by D'Alconzo, Flamini, and Gangemi attempted to build such a function from tensors and use it to create a commitment scheme. In this talk, we will review their construction and present an attack on it, rendering it completely insecure. We will also offer an approach to repairing it.
The talk is based on the work from https://eprint.iacr.org/2024/337, but no prior knowledge is necessary.

CryptoVerif: a computationally-sound security protocol verifier
Orateur : 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[…]-
