Session-state Reveal is stronger than Ephemeral Key Reveal: Attacking the NAXOS Authenticated Key Exchange protocol
Abstract
In the papers Stronger Security of Authenticated Key Exchange [LLM07, LLM06], a new security model for key exchange protocols is proposed. The new model is suggested to be at least as strong as previous models for key exchange protocols. In particular, the model includes a new notion of an Ephemeral Key Reveal adversary query, which is claimed in [LLM06, Oka07, Ust08] to be at least as strong as existing definitions of the Session-state Reveal query. We show that for some protocols, Session-state Reveal is strictly stronger than Ephemeral Key Reveal. In particular, we show that the NAXOS protocol from [LLM07, LLM06] does not meet its security requirements if the Session-state Reveal query is allowed in the security model.
