Modified McEliece PKC Proposed at Asiacrypt 2000 Is Breakable with CPA

This study examines the breakability and vulnerabilities of the Modified McEliece Public Key Cryptosystem presented at Asiacrypt 2000. It discusses the decoding problem, complex algorithms, and resistance against known attacks. The research aims to enhance the system's security against chosen plaintext attacks (CPA) and other threats.

  1. Modified McEliece PKC Proposed at Asiacrypt 2000 Is Breakable with CPA Kazukuni Kobara and Hideki Imai The Univ. of Tokyo

  2. Security of McEliece • Based on decoding problem • Difficulty of decoding arbitrary linear codes • Conjectured to be NP-Complete • Independent of IFP and DLP • On which most of the current PKCs are relying

  3. Year 200X IFP and DLP • New Algorithms Decoding problem Broken Even If Both IFP and DLP are Broken • Decoding problem may survive Year 20XX • Quantum Computers • New Algorithms IFP and DLP Broken Decoding problem
