Security of blind discrete log signatures against interactive attacks

  • We present a novel parallel one-more signature forgery against blind Okamoto-Schnorr and blind Schnorr signatures in which an attacker interacts some times with a legitimate signer and produces from these interactions signatures. Security against the new attack requires that the following ROS-problem is intractable: find an overdetermined, solvable system of linear equations modulo with random inhomogenities (right sides). There is an inherent weakness in the security result of POINTCHEVAL AND STERN. Theorem 26 [PS00] does not cover attacks with 4 parallel interactions for elliptic curves of order 2200. That would require the intractability of the ROS-problem, a plausible but novel complexity assumption. Conversely, assuming the intractability of the ROS-problem, we show that Schnorr signatures are secure in the random oracle and generic group model against the one-more signature forgery.
