Differential Fault Attack on LEA
نویسندگان
چکیده
LEA is a symmetric block cipher proposed in 2014. It uses ARX design and its main advantage is the possibility of a fast software implementation on common computing platforms. In this paper we propose a Differential Fault Analysis attack on LEA. By injecting random bit faults in the last round and in the penultimate round, we were able to recover the secret key by using 258 faulty encryptions in average. If the position of faults is known, then only 62 faulty encryptions are needed in order to recover the key which surpasses the results achieved so far.

Relaxed Differential Fault Analysis of SHA-3
In this paper, we propose a new method of differential fault analysis of SHA-3 which is based on the differential relations of the algorithm. Employing those differential relations in the fault analysis of SHA-3 gives new features to the proposed attacks, e.g., the high probability of fault detection and the possibility of re-checking initial faults and the possibility to recover internal state...
متن کاملDifferential Fault Attack on the PRINCE Block Cipher
PRINCE is a new lightweight block cipher proposed at the ASIACRYPT’2012 conference. In this paper two observations on the linear layer of the cipher are presented. Based on the observations a differential fault attack is applied to the cipher under a random nibblelevel fault model. The attack uniquely determines the 128-bit key of the cipher using less than 7 fault injections averagely. In the ...
متن کاملDifferential Fault Analysis on Block Cipher Piccolo
Piccolo is a 64-bit block cipher suitable for the constrained environments such as wireless sensor network environments. In this paper, we propose differential fault analysis on Piccolo. Based on a random byte fault model, our attack can recover the secret key of Piccolo-80 by using an exhaustive search of 2 and six random byte fault injections on average. It can be simulated on a general PC wi...
متن کاملAn Information Theoretic Perspective on the Differential Fault Analysis against AES
Differential Fault Analysis against AES has been actively studied these years. Based on similar assumptions of the fault injection, different DFA attacks against AES have been proposed. However, it is difficult to understand how different attack results are obtained for the same fault injection. It is also difficult to understand the relationship between similar assumptions of fault injection a...
متن کاملDifferential Fault Analysis of AES using a Single Multiple-Byte Fault
In this paper we present an improved fault attack on the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). This paper presents an improvement on a recently published differential fault analysis of AES that requires one fault to recover the secret key being used. This attack requires that one byte entering into the eighth round is corrupted. We show that the attack is possible where more than one byte has bee...
