Title:
Finding good differential patterns for attacks on SHA-1

Authors: Krystian Matusiewicz, Josef Pieprzyk

Abstract:

In this paper we describe a method of finding differential patterns that may be used to attack reduced versions of SHA-1. We show that the problem of finding optimal differential patterns for SHA-1 is equivalent to the problem of finding minimal weight codeword in a linear code. Finally, we present a number of patterns of different lengths suitable for finding collisions and near-collisions and discuss some bounds on minimal weights of them.
