Chosen ciphertext attacks against protocols based on the RSA encryption standard PKCS#1

摘要

This paper introduces a new adaptive chosen ciphertext attack against certain protocols based on RSA. We show that an RSA private-key operation can be performed if the attacker has access to an oracle that, for any chosen ciphertext, returns only one bit telling whether the ciphertext corresponds to some unknown block of data encrypted using PKCS#1. An example of a protocol susceptible to our attack is SSL V.3.0.
