[Fwd: [Cfrg] Colliding RFC 3161 time-stamp tokens based on MD5-collisions]

2005-03-06 Thread Alfonso De Gregorio
I hope this might be of interest. Alfonso --- Begin Message --- Hi All. I would like to thank Arjen Lenstra, Xiaoyun Wang, and Benne de Weger for announcing a method for the construction of pairs of colliding X.509 certificates, and David McGrew for forwarding to the list. I would like also to poin

Applications of target collisions: Pre or post-dating MD5-based RFC 3161 time-stamp tokens

Hi All, On 3rd march 2005, in a follow up to the announcement by Benne de Weger, Xiaoyun Wang and Arjen Lenstra [LWdW], I wrote a note explaining how it is possible to apply their method also for the construction of pairs of colliding RFC 3161 [3161] time-stamp tokens - my original note is availa

Hi Steven, hi Benne, Yes, this is a sweet and sour truth. We are not getting closer to preimage attacks. We are getting more far away from considering preimage and second-preimage resistance sufficient hash-function requirements for the real-world security of some protocols. Cheers, -- Alfonso

A Fault Attack Construction Based On Rijmen's Chosen-Text Relations Attack

The last Thursday, Vincent Rijmen announced a new clever attack on AES (and KASUMI) in a report posted to the Cryptology ePrint Archive: Practical-Titled Attack on AES-128 Using Chosen-Text Relations, http://eprint.iacr.org/2010/337 I believe the related-subkey model is an interesting model
