2021. Security Analysis of SFrame Result 2: Security of AES-CM-HMAC with Short Tags 21 Target member An impersonation attack by a malicious group member n exploits a vulnerability of very short tag length n caused by the digital signature Sig computed only a list of AEAD tags ๐, aad, ๐ช!, ๐ป!, Sig ๐, aad, ๐ชโ, ๐ปโฒ, Sig ๐ถ ๐ โฎ โฎ ๐ถโ ๐โ โฎ โฎ = ๐ปโฒ Security Analysis Other members Malicious member Online phase 1. intercepts a target frame ๐, aad, ๐ถ,, ๐,, Sig sent by the target member 2. searches a tuple ๐โ, ๐ถโ, ๐โ in the table such that ๐โ = ๐, and ๐ถโ โ ๐ถ, 3. finds such a tuple, replaces ๐ถ, with ๐ถโ in the target frame, and sends ๐, ๐๐๐, ๐ถโ, ๐โฒ, Sig to other group members When the tag length is 4 bytes, if the adversary prepares 232 tuples in the table, the success probability is almost one.
