Enhancing the security of perfect blind DL-signatures

چکیده

We enhance the security of Schnorr blind signatures against the novel one-more-forgery of Schnorr [Sc01] and Wagner [W02] which is possible even if the discrete logarithm is hard to compute. We show two limitations of this attack. Firstly, replacing the group G by the s-fold direct product G×s increases the work of the attack, for a given number of signer interactions, to the s-power while increasing the work of the blind signature protocol merely by a factor s. Secondly, we bound the number of additional signatures per signer interaction that can be forged effectively. That fraction of the additional forged signatures can be made

On blind signatures and perfect crimes

David Chaum has introduced the idea of blind signamres, an extension of the concept of digital signatures, as a way to protect the identity and privacy of a user in electronic payment and service networks. Blind signatures also prevent so-called 'dossier creation " about users by organizations. While the concept of blind signatures still allows authorities to distinguish between valid and false...

Short blind signatures

Blind signatures allow users to obtain signatures on messages hidden from the signer; moreover, the signer cannot link the resulting message/signature pair to the signing session. This paper presents blind signature schemes, in which the number of interactions between the user and the signer is minimal and whose blind signatures are short. Our schemes are defined over bilinear groups and are pr...

Quantum Blind Signature with an Offline Repository

We propose a quantum blind signature scheme that achieves perfect security under the assumption of an honest offline repository. The security of the protocol also relies on perfect private quantum channels, which are achievable using quantum one-time pads with keys shared via a QKD protocol. The proposed approach ensures that signatures cannot be copied and that the sender must compromise to a ...

Universally Composable Blind Signatures

This paper shows that the security of blind signatures is, as defined by Juels, Luby and Ostrovsky, truly weaker than the security in the universal composability (UC) framework (i.e., define the ideal functionality of blind signatures), which was introduced by Canetti. That is, we formulate the security of blind signatures in the UC framework, and show that the class of UC-secure blind signatur...

Security of Blind Digital

Blind digital signatures were introduced by Chaum. In this paper, we show how security and blindness properties for blind digital signatures, can be simultaneously deened and satissed, assuming an arbitrary one-way trapdoor permutation family. Thus, this paper presents the rst complexity-based proof of security for blind signatures.
