Cryptanalysis of a Group Key Establishment Protocol

چکیده
In this paper, we analyze the security of a group key establishment scheme proposed by López-Ramos et al. This proposal aims at allowing users to agree on common key. We present several attacks against protocol. particular, an active attack is presented, and it also proved that protocol does not provide forward secrecy.

Cryptanalysis of Tseng-Wu Group Key Exchange Protocol
Recently, Tseng and Wu pointed out that the second protocol of Biswas’s two-party keys scheme based on the Diffie-Hellman technique has a security weakness and proposed a new protocol to remedy the weakness. In this article, we point out that Tseng-Wu’s protocol is vulnerable to a man-in-the-middle attack. An attacker could intercept, delete, or modify the communicated messages between two comm...
متن کاملSecurity issues in a group key establishment protocol
Major shortcomings in a recently published group key establishment protocol are described. These shortcomings are sufficiently serious that the protocol should not be used.
متن کاملCryptanalysis of a noncommutative key exchange protocol
In the papers by Alvarez et al. and Pathak and Sanghi a noncommutative based public key exchange is described. A similiar version of it has also been patented (US7184551). In this paper we present a polynomial time attack that breaks the variants of the protocol presented in the two papers. Moreover we show that breaking the patented cryptosystem US7184551 can be easily reduced to factoring. We...
متن کاملAnalysis of a key-establishment security protocol
Nowadays security protocols are a key component in providing security services for fixed and mobile networks. These services include data confidentiality, radio link encryption, message integrity, mobile subscriber authentication, electronic payment, certified e-mail, contract signing and nonrepudiation. This paper is concerned with attacks against security protocols. Security protocols are int...
متن کاملCryptanalysis of the dragonfly key exchange protocol
Dragonfly is a password authenticated key exchange protocol that has been submitted to the Internet Engineering Task Force as a candidate standard for general internet use. We analyzed the security of this protocol and devised an attack that is capable of extracting both the session key and password from an honest party. This attack was then implemented and experiments were performed to determi...
