Hash Function Balance and Its Impact on Birthday Attacks
Textbooks tell us that a birthday attack on a hash function h with range size r requires r1/2 trials (hash computations) to find a collision. But this is quite misleading, being t...

Multicollisions in Iterated Hash Functions. Application to Cascaded Constructions
Abstract. In this paper, we study the existence of multicollisions in iterated hash functions. We show that finding multicollisions, i.e. r-tuples of messages that all hash to the...

A new hash family obtained by modifying the SHA-2 family
In this work, we study several properties of the SHA-2 design which have been utilized in recent collision attacks against reduced round SHA-2. Small modifications to the SHA-2 des...

How Risky Is the Random-Oracle Model?
RSA-FDH and many other schemes secure in the Random-Oracle Model (ROM) require a hash function with output size larger than standard sizes. We show that the random-oracle instanti...

Practical key-recovery attack against APOP, an MD5-based challenge-response authentication
Abstract: Hash functions are used in many cryptographic constructions under various assumptions, and the practical impact of collision attacks is often unclear. In this paper, we s...
