Anonymous authentication is designed to hide the user’s identity from any verifiers during an authentication session. Since passwords prevail in many authentication systems, anonymous password-authenticated key exchange (APAKE) has become a candidate technique for privacy-enhancing applications. Recently, Shin and Kobara proposed an improved APAKE protocol using general devices such as public directories. However, we find that their scheme is vulnerable to a credential forgery attack. Then, we propose an efficient protocol using tamper resistant smart cards. The security and efficiency analysis shows that our protocol obtains high security and efficiency.
