We present the first practically realizable sidechannel assisted fault attack on PRESENT, that can retrieve the last round key efficiently using single nibble faults. The attack demonstrates how side-channel leakage can allow the adversary to precisely determine the fault mask resulting from a nibble fault injection instance. We first demonstrate the viability of such an attack model via side-channel...
This paper presents the first practical fault attack on the ChaCha family of addition-rotation-XOR (ARX)-based stream ciphers. ChaCha has recently been deployed for speeding up and strengthening HTTPS connections for Google Chrome on Android devices. In this paper, we propose differential fault analysis attacks on ChaCha without resorting to nonce misuse. We use the instruction skip and instruction...
This paper describes the outcome of a laser attack study on an Android smartphone targeting specifically the secure boot sequence. Laser fault injection has become a classical attack path in the secure chip industry to investigate potential security mitigation. The implementation of such attacks on a recent mobile phone remains relatively unexplored and represents different challenges, both at hardware...
Matsuda et al. proposed a countermeasure against laser fault injection that uses distributed on-chip sensors. The sensor raises an alarm by detecting an electrical phenomenon caused in conjunction with a bitflip. A cryptographic module can stop releasing a faulty ciphertext by using the alarm. In this paper, security and limitation of the countermeasure by Matsuda et al. is rigorously evaluated. We...
