| Abstract: | We define and analyze the Commutative Isogeny Hidden Number Problem which is the natural analogue of the Hidden Number Problem in the CSIDH and CSURF setting. In short, the task is as follows: Given two supersingular elliptic curves \(E_A\), \(E_B\) and access to an oracle that outputs some of the most significant bits of the \(\ensuremath{\mathsf{CDH}}\) of two curves, an adversary must compute the shared curve \(E_{AB}=\ensuremath{\mathsf{CDH}}(E_A,E_B)\). We show that we can recover \(E_{AB}\) in polynomial time by using Coppersmith's method as long as the oracle outputs \(\ensuremath{\frac{13}{24}} + \varepsilon \approx 54\%\) (CSIDH) and \(\ensuremath{\frac{31}{41}} + \varepsilon \approx 76\%\) (CSURF) of the most significant bits of the \(\ensuremath{\mathsf{CDH}}\), where $\varepsilon > 0$ is an arbitrarily small constant. To this end, we give a purely combinatorial restatement of Coppersmith's method, effectively concealing the intricate aspects of lattice theory and allowing for near-complete automation. By leveraging this approach, we attain recovery attacks with $\varepsilon$ close to zero within a few minutes of computation. |
