  1. Online Cryptography Course Dan Boneh Collision resistance Constructing Compression Functions

  2. The Merkle-Damgard iterated construction m[0] m[1] m[2] m[3] ll PB Thm: h collision resistant ⇒ H collision resistant Goal: construct compression function h: T × X ⟶ T H(m) h h h h IV (fixed)

  3. Compr. func. from a block cipher E: K× {0,1}n⟶ {0,1}na block cipher. The Davies-Meyer compression function: h(H, m) = E(m, H)⨁H Thm: Suppose E is an ideal cipher (collection of |K| random perms.). Finding a collision h(H,m)=h(H’,m’) takes O(2n/2) evaluations of (E,D). mi > E ⨁ Hi Best possible !!

  4. Suppose we define h(H, m) = E(m, H) Then the resulting h(.,.) is not collision resistant: to build a collision (H,m) and (H’,m’) choose random (H,m,m’) and construct H’ as follows: H’=D(m’, E(m,H)) H’=E(m’, D(m,H)) H’=E(m’, E(m,H)) H’=D(m’, D(m,H))

  5. Other block cipher constructions Let E: {0,1}n× {0,1}n ⟶ {0,1}n for simplicity Miyaguchi-Preneel: h(H, m) = E(m, H)⨁H⨁m (Whirlpool) h(H,m) = E(H⨁m, m)⨁m total of 12 variants like this Other natural variants are insecure: h(H, m) = E(m, H)⨁m (HW)

  6. Case study: SHA-256 • Merkle-Damgard function • Davies-Meyer compression function • Block cipher: SHACAL-2 512-bit key > SHACAL-2 256-bit block 256-bit block

  7. Provable compression functions Choose a random 2000-bit prime p and random 1 ≤ u, v ≤ p . For m,h ∈ {0,…,p-1} define h(H,m) = uH ⋅ vm (mod p) Fact: finding collision for h(.,.) is as hard as solving “discrete-log” modulo p. Problem: slow.
