The present invention relates to an authenticated cipher algorithm which uses a block cipher.
An authenticated cipher algorithm is a cipher algorithm that realizes a confidentiality function and a tamper-detection function. When the authenticated cipher algorithm is used, two parties can communicate with each other while concealing messages. Also, the recipient can check whether a sent message is tampered or not.
The authenticated cipher algorithm includes two algorithms which are an encryption function Enc and a decryption function Dec.
The encryption function Enc is a function that takes as input a private key K, a nonce N, open data A, and a plaintext M and outputs a ciphertext C and a tamper-detecting authenticator T. As the nonce N, a different value is used for each encryption, and the same value is not used unless the private key K is changed.
The decryption function Dec takes as input the private key K, the nonce N, the open data A, the ciphertext C, and a tamper-detection authenticator T. If the input value is not tampered, the decryption function Dec outputs the plaintext M. If the input value is tampered, the decryption function Dec outputs a value indicating that the input value is forged. The value indicating that the input value is forged will be expressed as ⊥ hereinafter.
Assume that a sender Alice and a recipient Bob are to perform communication using the authenticated cipher algorithm. The private key K is shared by the sender Alice and the recipient Bob in advance.
The sender Alice takes as input the private key K, the nonce N, the open data A, and the plaintext M, and calculates the ciphertext C and the tamper-detection authenticator T with using the encryption function Enc. Then, the sender Alice sends the nonce N, the open data A, the ciphertext C, and the tamper-detection authenticator T to the recipient Bob.
The recipient Bob takes the private key K, the nonce N, the open data A, the ciphertext C, and the tamper-detection authenticator T, as input to the decryption function Dec. If none of the nonce N, the open data A, the ciphertext C, and the tamper-detection authenticator T is tampered, the decryption function Dec outputs the plaintext M.
The open data A is a value that can be open to public. The open data A need not be necessarily used. The sender Alice uses, as the nonce N, a different value for each encryption, and does not use the same value.
Security of an authenticated cipher includes confidentiality and integrity prescribed in Non-Patent Literature 1.
Confidentiality signifies security defining that a plaintext will not be revealed from a ciphertext. In a security game about confidentiality, an attacker accesses either one of an authenticated cipher type encryption function Enc and an oracle which outputs a random number, and the attacker identifies which one he or she is accessing. A probability that the attacker identifies an accessing target correctly is referred to as an identification probability. The lower the identification probability, the higher the confidentiality security.
Integrity signifies security defining that open data or a ciphertext cannot be tampered. In a security game about integrity, an attacker access an encryption function Enc and decryption function Dec of an authenticated cipher type, and inputs forged open data, a forged ciphertext, and a forged authenticator to the decryption function Dec, aiming to pass a tamper check. A probability that the tamper check is passed is referred to as a forging probability. The lower the forging probability, the higher the integrity security.
As a method of constituting the authenticated cipher algorithm, a method that uses a Tweakable block cipher is available.
The Tweakable block cipher is constituted of an encryption function E and a decryption function D. The encryption function E is a function that takes as input a key K, a Tweak value TW, and a b-bit plaintext block M and outputs a b-bit ciphertext block C. This is expressed as C=E(K, TW, M). The decryption function D of the Tweakable block cipher is a function that takes as input the key K, the Tweak value TW, and the b-bit ciphertext block C and outputs the b-bit plaintext block M. This is expressed as M=D(K, TW, C).
The size b of each of the plaintext block M and the ciphertext block C is referred to as a block size. The encryption function E and decryption function D of the Tweakable block cipher are each turned into a b-bit permutation function by fixing the key K and the Tweak value TW. Normally, a secret value is used as the key K, and an open value is used as the Tweak value TW. A set of Tweak values will be referred to as TWset. A set of keys will be referred to as Kset. That is, the Tweak value TW is selected from TWset, and the key K is selected from Kset.
Non-Patent Literatures 2 and 3 describe an algorithm of a specific Tweakable block cipher.
Non-Patent Literature 2 describes examples of specific values of TWset, Kset, and the block size b of the Tweakable block cipher. SKINNY-128-384 described in Non-Patent Literature 2 is a Tweakable block cipher having a 128-bit block size and a Tweak value length and a key length that total to 384 bits. Hence, if the Tweak value has a length of 256 bits, then, block size b=128, Kset={0, 1}128, and TWset={0, 1}256.
When constituting an authenticated cipher with using a Tweakable block cipher, the encryption function Enc is constituted with using the encryption function E of the Tweakable block cipher, and the decryption function Dec is constituted with using the encryption function E or decryption function D of the Tweakable block cipher.
In designing an authenticated cipher with using a Tweakable block cipher, when proving security of the authenticated cipher, the Tweakable block cipher is replaced by a Tweakable random permutation, as defined in Non-Patent Literature 4.
Among authenticated ciphers using a Tweakable block cipher which are proposed so far, the most secure ones are OCB described in Non-Patent Literature 4, PFB described in Non-Patent Literature 5, and Romulus described in Non-Patent Literature 6.
Regarding the confidentiality, the identification probability against these techniques is 0. Regarding the integrity, the forging probability is qD/2b for an access number time qD to the decryption function Dec of the authenticated cipher.
With these authenticated ciphers, the forging probability is smaller than 1 until qD becomes 2b. Thus, the security of the authenticated cipher can be guaranteed until qD becomes 2b. A bit security is a value obtained by applying log 2 to qD in a case where the probability becomes 1. Hence, each of these authenticated ciphers has a bit security of b bits (=log2 2b).
According to any one of authenticated ciphers described in Non-Patent Literatures 4 to 6, each of which uses a Tweakable block cipher, a b-bit value is updated by the decryption function Dec side likewise. However, since collision of b-bit values is utilized, the integrity of the authenticated cipher is breached. Collision of b-bit values signifies that for two different inputs to an authenticated cipher, the same b-bit value is resulted.
There are 2b of b-bit values. Hence, the integrity can be breached by computing the decryption function Dec 2b times. In other words, a theoretical limit of bit security having an existing-technique configuration is b bits.
According to the authenticated cipher, in order to guarantee the security, keys of the authenticated cipher are updated before the identification probability or forging probability becomes 1. Meanwhile, key update takes time and cost, and accordingly an authenticated cipher in which one key has a long life, that is, an updated frequency is low, is desirable. An authenticated cipher having a lower identification probability and a lower forging probability, that is, a higher bit security, can reduce the key update frequency more.
An objective of the present disclosure is to make feasible an authenticated cipher having a high bit security.
An encryption device according to the present disclosure includes:
an acquisition unit to acquire a plaintext M;
a division unit to divide the plaintext M acquired by the acquisition unit, every b bits from a beginning, the b bits being a block size of an encryption function E of a block cipher, thereby generating b-bit values M1, . . . , Mm-1 and a value Mm having 1 or more bits to b or less bits;
an S1 calculation unit to assign a b-bit value H1 to a value M0, and for each integer i of i=1, . . . , m in an ascending order, to take a value Mi-1 as input to the encryption function E, thereby calculating a value S1(i), and to calculate a value Ci from the value S1(i) and a value Mi;
an S2 calculation unit to assign an r-bit value H2 to a value S2(0), and for each integer i of i=1, . . . , m in an ascending order, to calculate a value S2(i) from the value S1(i) calculated by the S1 calculation unit and from a value S2(i−1):
a ciphertext generation unit to generate a ciphertext C from a value Ci for each integer i of i=1, . . . , m; and
an authenticator generation unit to generate a (b+r)-bit authenticator T by using a value S1(m) and a value S2(m).
In the present disclosure, a b-bit value S1 is updated with using an encryption function E. and an r-bit value is updated with using an output of the encryption function E. Thus, for decryption, a configuration of updating a (b+r)-bit value can be employed, and a bit security of (b+r) bits can be achieved.

***Definition in Description Below***
A set of values of a nonce N is defined as Nset.
A maximum block number of a plaintext M, a ciphertext C, and open data A is defined as L. A block number is a number of b-bit blocks formed by dividing a bit string of the plaintext M, the ciphertext C, or the open data A every b bits. Note that b bits is a block size in a Tweakable block cipher employed by the encryption device 10 and the decryption device 20.
That is, when a maximum bit length of the plaintext M, the ciphertext C, and the open data A is defined as L*, L is a minimum integer that is equal to or larger than L*/b.
It is defined that const is a fixed value being a certain value included in Nset. Note that const may be any value in Nset. It is defined that const1 is a b-bit fixed value and that const2 is an r-bit fixed value. Note that const 1 may be any b-bit value and that const2 may be any r-bit value. It is defined that r is an integer equal to or larger than 1.
An operator of a per-bit exclusive OR is expressed as xor. For a bit string X, a bit length of X is expressed as |X|.
It is defined that pad is a function that takes as input an input value having a bit length of b or less bits, bit-couples bits of values subsequent to the input value to generate a b-bit value, and outputs the generated b-bit value.
For example, pad(X), signifying an output from pad upon input of a value X having (b−1) or less bits, is a value formed by bit-coupling 1 to follow the value X and then bit-coupling a bit string of 0 to follow 1 such that the bit length becomes b. Also, for example, pad(Y), signifying an output from pad upon input of a b-bit value Y, is Y.
When i is an integer of b or less, trunc[i] is a function that takes as input a b-bit value and outputs an i-bit value that is determined in advance, from among the inputted b bits.
For example, trunc[i] is a function that outputs a most-significant i bit from among the inputted b bits. Also, for example, trunc[i] is a function that outputs a least-significant i bit from among the inputted b bits.
A set of Tweaks of the Tweakable block cipher used by the encryption device 10 and the decryption device 30 is expressed as TW=Nset×{1, 2 . . . . , L}×{1, 2, . . . , 16}. 1, 2, . . . . L are different integer values. 1, 2, . . . , L suffice as far as they are different integer values and are not limited to integer values 1, 2, . . . , L. Likewise, 1, 2, . . . , 16 are different integer values. 1, 2, . . . , 16 suffice as far as they are different integer values and are not limited to integer values 1, 2, . . . , 16.
If TW is a t-bit space {0, 1}t, Nset×{1, 2, . . . , L}×{1, 2, . . . , 16} suffices as far as it can be assigned to a t-bit space in 1 to 1 correspondence, and its assigning method is arbitrary. For example, for an integer n, when Nset={0, 1}n, if, out of t bits, first n bits are used as Nset, next log2 L bits are used as {1, 2, . . . , L}, and the last 4 bits are used as {1, 2, . . . , 16}, then a Tweak space can be realized. Note that tweak length t≥n+log2 L+4.
The Tweak value TW is expressed as (x, y, z) where x is a value selected from Nset, y is a value selected from {1, 2, . . . , L}, and z is a value selected from {1, 2, . . . , 16}.
