On the insecurity of interchanged use of OFB and CBC modes of operation

The security of interchanged use of modes of operation of block ciphers have not been discussed in the public literature. So far, the modes of operation of block ciphers have been treated as completely independent and uncorrelated. In this paper we represent both CBC and OFB as quasigroup string transformations, and then show that OFB mode is a special case of the CBC mode of operation. That ra...

SVH: A Lightweight Stream Cipher Based on Dual Pseudo-Random Transformation and OFB

A new lightweight stream cipher, SVH, is proposed. The design targets hardware environments where gate count, power consumption and memory is very limited. It is based on dual pseudo-random transformation and output feedback. The block of key size is 64 bits and SVH can achieve sufficient security margin against known attacks, such as linear cryptanalysis, differential cryptanalysis, impossible...

Post-Quantum Security of the CBC, CFB, OFB, CTR, and XTS Modes of Operation

We examine the IND-qCPA security of the wide-spread block cipher modes of operation CBC, CFB, OFB, CTR, and XTS (i.e., security against quantum adversaries doing queries in superposition). We show that OFB and CTR are secure assuming that the underlying block cipher is a standard secure PRF (a pseudorandom function secure under classical queries). We give counterexamples that show that CBC, CFB...
