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.

Cryptanalysis of full BEANIE
Orateur : Xavier Bonnetain - Inria
BEANIE is a tweakable block cipher recently published at ToSC aiming for memory encryption of microcontroller units. In line with this goal, it handles small plaintexts of only 32 bits and has a low latency. In this paper, we propose the first third-party analysis of the two variants of BEANIE. By carefully leveraging structural properties of the cipher and taking advantage of its distinctive[…]-
