| Summary: | Algebraic attacks on stream cipher are very important in
cryptography as well as in cryptanalysis. Generally,
increasing degree of the equation will make an algebraic
attack to the equation hardest. In conducting this analysis,
we aim to decrease the degree of the targeted Boolean
equation by constructing low degree annihilator
equation(s). We adopt the Fault Injection Analysis (FIA)
methodology to achieve our objectives. In this study, we
found annihilator(s) through FIA (inject with value of one
(1)) on Boolean function of selected stream ciphers. With
the new injected Boolean functions developed, we proceed
to utilize Hao’s method to find new annihilator(s). Then
we established new annihilator(s) of Grain v0’s Boolean
function. As a result, these newly identified annihilator(s)
successfully reduce the complexity of the published
Boolean function to guess the initial secret key. It also
provides much needed information on the security and
vulnerability of these selected stream cipher with respect
to FIA. |
