Different fxom the classical algebraic attacks, the proposed attacks take the advantage of the combinational property of a linear feedback shift register （LFSR） and the symmetric Boolean function to obtain a tow-degree algebraic relation, and hence the complexities of the proposed attacks are independent of the algebraic immunity （AI） of the filter functions. It is shown that improper combining of the LFSR with the filter function can make the filter generator suffer from algebraic attacks. As a result, the bits of the LFSR must be selected properly to input the filter function with large AI in order to withstand the proposed algebraic attacks.展开更多

In order to resist algebraic attacks, Boolean functions used in many stream ciphers should possess high algebraic immunity. This paper presents one main result to find balanced rotation symmetric Boolean functions with maximum algebraic immunity. Through swapping the values of two orbits of rotation class of the majority function, a class of 4k＋l variable Boolean functions with maximum algebraic immu- nity is constructed. The function f（x） we construct always has terms of degree n-2 independence of what ever n is. And the nonlinearity off（x） is relatively good for large n.展开更多

By using the new method one gets a system of linear equations or low-degree equations about initial keys, and the solution of the system of equations results in the recovery of the initial keys. This method has a lower computational complexity and better performance of attack in contrast to the known methods. Accordingly, the design of the resynchronization stream generators should be reconsidered to make them strong enough to avoid our attacks. When implemented to the Toyocrypt, our method gains the computational complexity of O（2^17）, and that of 0（2^67） for LILI-128.展开更多
