Welcome to the resource topic for 2023/730

Title:
The Problem of Half Round Key XOR

Authors: Anubhab Baksi

Abstract:

In the design of GIFT, half round key XOR is used. This leads to the undesired consequence that the security against the differential/linear attacks are overestimated. This comes from the observation that; in the usual DDT/LAT based analysis of the differential/linear attacks, the inherent assumption is the full round key is XORed at each round.
