An important component of an iterated block cipher is the key schedule. In this paper, we consider iterated block ciphers with a key schedule algorithm described by a recurrence relation. We present an efficient related-key attack on those ciphers. With regard to similar techniques, such as the slide attack, our proposal considerably reduces the number of necessary plaintexts from O(2 n/4) plaintexts to 2r, where r is the number of recovered round keys. The complexity of our attack is, moreover, almost equal to the complexity of guessing just one round key. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.
