Fault Analysis on the Stream Ciphers LILI-128 and Achterbahn
نویسندگان
چکیده
LILI-128 is a clock controlled stream cipher based on two LFSRs with one clock control function and one non-linear filter function. The clocking of the second LFSR is controlled by the first LFSR. In this paper we propose a fault algebraic attack on LILI-128 stream cipher. We first recover the state bits of the first LFSR by injecting a single bit fault in the first LFSR. After that we recover the second LFSR state bits by following algebraic cryptanalysis technique. We also propose fault attack on Achterbahn stream cipher, which is based on 8 NLFSRs, 8 LFSRs and one non-linear combining function. We first inject a single bit fault into the NLFSR-A then observe the normal and faulty keystream bits to recover almost all the state bits of the NLFSR-A after key initialization phase. One can apply our technique to other NLFSR-B, C, D to recover their state bits also.

Fault Analysis of Stream Ciphers
A fault attack is a powerful cryptanalytic tool which can be applied to many types of cryptosystems which are not vulnerable to direct attacks. The research literature contains many examples of fault attacks on public key cryptosystems and block ciphers, but surprisingly we could not find any systematic study of the applicability of fault attacks to stream ciphers. Our goal in this paper is to ...
متن کاملOn the Design and Analysis of Stream Ciphers
T thesis presents new cryptanalysis results for several different stream cipher constructions. In addition, it also presents two new stream ciphers, both based on the same design principle. The first attack is a general attack targeting a nonlinear combiner. A new class of weak feedback polynomials for linear feedback shift registers is identified. By taking samples corresponding to the linear ...
متن کاملA New Simple Technique to Attack Filter Generators and Related Ciphers
This paper presents a new simple distinguishing attack that can be applied on stream ciphers constructed from filter generators or similar structures. We demonstrate the effectiveness by describing key recovery attacks on the stream cipher LILI-128. One attack on LILI-128 requires 2 bits of keystream and a computational complexity of roughly 2. This is a significant improvement compared to othe...
متن کاملAlgebraic Attacks on Stream Ciphers (survey)
Most stream ciphers based on linear feedback shift registers (LFSR) are vulnerable to recent algebraic attacks. In this survey paper, we describe generic attacks: existence of algebraic equations and fast algebraic attacks. The generic attacks only states the existence and gives the upper bound of the complexity. Thus we should find good algebraic equations, case by case, in order to apply the ...
متن کاملFault Analysis of Grain Family of Stream Ciphers
In this paper, we present fault attack on Grain family of stream ciphers, an eStream finalist. The earlier fault attacks on Grain work on LFSR whereas our target for fault induction is the NFSR. Our attack requires a small number of faults to be injected; 150 only for Grain v1 and only 312 and 384 for Grain-128 and Grain-128a, respectively. The number of faults are much lesser than the earlier ...
