Abstract
SOBER-128 is a stream cipher designed by Rose and Hawkes in 2003. It can be also uses for generating Message Authentication Codes (MACs). The developers claimed that it is difficult to forge the MAC generated by SOBER-128, though, the security model defined in the proposal paper is not realistic. In this paper, we examine the security of the MAC generation function of SOBER-128 under the security notion given by Bellare and Namprempre. As a result, we show the MAC generation function of SOBER-128 is vulnerable against differential cryptanalysis. The success probability of this attack is estimated at 2-6. © International Association for Cryptologic Research 2004.
