چکیده

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 introducing and using a new notion, which we call the t–closure of a code.

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...

QTRU: quaternionic version of the NTRU public-key cryptosystems

In this paper we will construct a lattice-based public-key cryptosystem using non-commutative quaternion algebra, and since its lattice does not fully fit within Circular and Convolutional Modular Lattice (CCML), we prove it is arguably more secure than the existing lattice-based cryptosystems such as NTRU. As in NTRU, the proposed public-key cryptosystem relies for its inherent securi...

Cryptanalysis of Two McEliece Cryptosystems Based on Quasi-Cyclic Codes

We cryptanalyse here two variants of the McEliece cryptosystem based on quasi-cyclic codes. Both aim at reducing the key size by restricting the public and secret generator matrices to be in quasi-cyclic form. The first variant considers subcodes of a primitive BCH code. The aforementioned constraint on the public and secret keys implies to choose very structured permutations. We prove that thi...

Algebraic Cryptanalysis of McEliece Variants with Compact Keys

In this paper we propose a new approach to investigate the security of the McEliece cryptosystem. We recall that this cryptosystem relies on the use of error-correcting codes. Since its invention thirty years ago, no efficient attack had been devised that managed to recover the private key. We prove that the private key of the cryptosystem satisfies a system of bi-homogeneous polynomial equatio...

Cryptanalysis of the Niederreiter Public Key Scheme Based on GRS Subcodes

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.
