On security of a remote user authentication scheme without using smart cards
Abstract
The security of a password authentication scheme using smart cards proposed by Rhee et al. is analyzed. A kind of impersonation attack is presented. The analyses show that the scheme is insecure for practical application. In order to eliminate the security vulnerability, an efficient countermeasure is proposed.
