One correction: The Karacell table is 2^16, not 2^64 bits long. Sorry about
that.
And as to the weak knapsack problem (Remember trapdoor knapsacks) are you
referring to:

I'll shut up now and let others post.

Yes, you can work backward from a known xor mask (due to a known plaintext)
to the master key. You just have to solve the Subset Sum problem several
times, serially:

In particular as applies to Karacell, the Horowitz and Sahni approach

There is no such thing, really. Military grade is a term invented by
the civilian crypto marketeers to cash in on the secrecy of classified
