Authenticated Key Exchange Protocols with Enhanced Freshness Properties.

Hai Huang, Zhenfu Cao

Published Jan 1, 2009• 1 citation

Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the security model for authenticated key exchange protocols. We observe that there is further room to extend the latest enhanced Canetti-Krawczyk (eCK) model. We further enhance the freshness definition for the threepass authenticated key exchange protocols such that our new definition gives the adversary more capabilities. We point out that the three-pass authenticated key exchange protocols generically transformed from the two-pass authenticated key exchange protocols secure in the eCK model can not be secure in our new security definition. We then introduce a new authenticated key exchange protocol SIG-DH + and prove that it satisfies our new definition.

Authenticated key exchange protocol with enhanced freshness properties

Hai Huang, Zhenfu Cao

Abstract This paper investigates the security model for authenticated key exchange protocols. We further enhance the enhanced Canetti‐Krawczyk (eCK) model by introducing a notion called strong key compromise impersonation (SKCI) resilience which is first identified in this paper. SKCI resilience guarantees that the adversary cannot masquerade as another party B to communicate with party A even if the static private key and the ephemeral private key of party A are compromised. We point out that the three‐pass authenticated key exchange protocol generically transformed from the two‐pass one secure in the eCK model cannot resist the SKCI attack. Finally, we introduce a new authenticated key exchange protocol SIG‐DH+ and prove that it satisfies our new definition. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Strongly Secure One Round Authenticated Key Exchange Protocol with Perfect Forward Security.

Hai Huang

Abstract. This paper investigates the two-pass authenticated key exchange protocol in the enhanced Canetti-Krawczyk (eCK) with perfect forward security. Currently, there exist no authenticated key exchange protocols which are provably secure in eCK model and meanwhile achieve perfect forward security against active adversary in one round. We propose a new two-pass authenticated key exchange protocol which enjoys following desirable properties. First, our protocol is shown secure in the eCK model under the gap Diffie-Hellman (GDH) assumption. Moreover, our protocol does not use the NAXOS transformation, the drawback of which will be discussed in the introduction. Second, under the same assumption, we prove that our protocol achieves perfect forward security against active adversary in one round. To the best of our knowledge, our proposal is first two-pass (one round) AKE protocol provably secure in the eCK model and achieving perfect forward security against active adversary.

A New Efficient and Strongly Secure Authenticated Key Exchange Protocol

Qingfeng Cheng, Guangguo Han, Chuangui Ma

In 2007, LaMacchia et al.proposed the extended Canetti-Krawczyk (eCK) model for authenticated key exchange (AKE) protocols. In this paper, we first modify the eCK model by adding a new query to make the adversary can reveal all ephemeral secret information. Then we propose a new efficient and strongly secure AKE protocol in the asymmetric setting, called E-NETS (enhanced NETS) protocol, and prove its security in the modified eCK (meCK) model under the random oracle assumption and the gap Diffie-Hellman assumption.

Strongly Secure Identity-based Authenticated Key Exchange Protocol

Jian Shu

Recently,LaMacchia et al.proposed the extended Canetti-Krawczyk(eCK) model,which captures all security properties of authenticated key enchange protocols.Most of existing identity-based authenticated key exchange protocols are not secure in the eCK model.This paper proposes an identity-based authenticated key exchange protocol,and the security of proposed protocol can be proved in the eCK model.When compaer with other schemes,the proposed protocol achieves efficiency in terms of computation and communication.The proposal achieve strong security,and can be proved under the random oracle assumption and the Gap Bilinear Diffie-Hellman assumption.

Analysis of Two Provably Secure Authenticated Key Exchange Protocols in the eCK Model

Xuexian Hu

The extended Canetti-Krawczyk(eCK) model proposed by LaMacchia et al.is currently regarded as the strongest security model for authenticated key exchange(AKE) protocols.In the eCK model,the adversary can make queries on the test session,and reveal both ephemeral private keys,both long-term keys,or one of each from the two different parties.In this paper,we analyze two AKE protocols designed in the eCK model based on the definition of eCK model.We propose ephemeral keys compromised attacks and long-term keys compromised attacks on one of them,and also propose ephemeral keys compromised attacks on the other one.The results of analysis show that both of them are insecure in the eCK model.

An eCK-secure Authenticated Key Exchange Protocol Without Random Oracles

Daisuke Moriyama, Tatsuaki Okamoto

Two-party key exchange protocol is a mechanism in which two parties communicate with each other over an insecure channel and output the same session key.A key exchange protocol that is secure against an active adversary who can control and modify the exchanged messages is called authenticated key exchange (AKE) protocol.LaMacchia, Lauter and Mityagin presented a strong security definition for public key infrastructure (PKI) based two-pass protocol, which we call the extended Canetti-Krawczyk (eCK) security model, and some researchers have provided eCK-secure AKE protocols in recent years.However, almost all protocols are provably secure in the random oracle model or rely on a special implementation technique so-called the NAXOS trick.In this paper, we present a PKI-based two-pass AKE protocol that is secure in the eCK security model.The security of the proposed protocol is proven without random oracles (under three assumptions), and does not rely on implementation techniques such as the NAXOS trick.
