Abstract: | In [http://eprint.iacr.org/2003/211/] SFLASH^{v3} is presented, which supersedes SFLASH^{v2}, one of the digital signature schemes in the NESSIE Portfolio of recommended cryptographic primitives. We show that a known attack against the affine parts of SFLASH^{v1} and SFLASH^{v2} carries over immediately to the new version SFLASH^{v3}: The 861 bit representing the affine parts of the secret key can easily be derived from the public key alone. |
