Cryptanalysis of the Niederreiter Public Key Scheme Based on GRS Subcodes

نویسنده

  • Christian Wieschebrink
چکیده

In this paper a new structural attack on the McEliece/Niederreiter public key cryptosystem based on subcodes of generalized ReedSolomon codes proposed by Berger and Loidreau is described. It allows the reconstruction of the private key for almost all practical parameter choices in polynomial time with high probability.

An Attack on a Modified Niederreiter Encryption Scheme

In [1] a Niederreiter-type public-key cryptosystem based on subcodes of generalized Reed-Solomon codes is presented. In this paper an algorithm is proposed which is able to recover the private key of the aforementioned system from the public key and which is considerably faster than a brute force attack. It is shown that the example parameters proposed in [1] are insecure.

An efficient secure channel coding scheme based on polar codes

In this paper, we propose a new framework for joint encryption encoding scheme based on polar codes, namely efficient and secure joint secret key encryption channel coding scheme. The issue of using new coding structure, i.e. polar codes in Rao-Nam (RN) like schemes is addressed. Cryptanalysis methods show that the proposed scheme has an acceptable level of security with a relatively smaller ke...

How to mask the structure of error-correcting codes for a cryptographical use

In this paper we show how to strengthen public-key cryptosystems against known attacks, together with the reduction of the public-key. We use properties of subcodes to mask the structure of the codes used by the conceiver of the system. We propose new parameters for the cryptosystems and even a modified Niederreiter cryptosystem in the case of Gabidulin codes, with a public-key size of less tha...

Cryptanalysis of Public-Key Cryptosystems That Use Subcodes of Algebraic Geometry Codes

We give a polynomial time attack on the McEliece public key cryptosystem based on subcodes of algebraic geometry (AG) codes. The proposed attack reposes on the distinguishability of such codes from random codes using the Schur product. Wieschebrink treated the genus zero case a few years ago but his approach cannot be extent straightforwardly to other genera. We address this problem by introduc...

Code-based Signature and Identification Schemes

In the last lecture we discussed public-key cryptosystems based on error-correcting codes. Unfortunately, we cannot directly derive a signature scheme by using a public-key cryptosystem that is based on codes like the McEliece or the Niederreiter scheme. (In contrast, with RSA it is possible to establish a signature scheme from a cryptosystem.) The problem is that the McEliece and the Niederrei...
