Slightly less computationally expensive than a birthday attack, [15] but for practical purposes, memory requirements make it more expensive. MD4: 2 64: 3 operations 2007-03-22 Finding collisions almost as fast as verifying them. [16] PANAMA: 2 128: 2 6: 2007-04-04 Paper, [17] improvement of an earlier theoretical attack from 2001.

Since a single round is usually cryptographically weak, many attacks that fail to work against the full version of ciphers will work on such reduced-round variants. The result of such attack provides valuable information about the strength of the algorithm, [9] a typical break of the full cipher starts out as a success against a reduced-round ...
Pre-image resistance: given a hash h, it should be hard to find any message m such that h = hash(m). This concept is related to that of the one-way function. Functions that lack this property are vulnerable to pre-image attacks. Second pre-image resistance: given an input m 1, it should be hard to find another input m 2 ≠ m 1 such that hash(m ...
HOUSTON (Reuters) - U.S. oilfield services firm Halliburton on Wednesday was hit by a cyberattack, according to a person familiar with the matter. ... The attack appeared to impact business ...
Second-preimage resistance implies preimage resistance only if the size of the hash function's inputs can be substantially (e.g., factor 2) larger than the size of the hash function's outputs. [1] Conversely, a second-preimage attack implies a collision attack (trivially, since, in addition to x′, x is already known right from the start).
Collision resistance is desirable for several reasons. In some digital signature systems, a party attests to a document by publishing a public key signature on a hash of the document. If it is possible to produce two documents with the same hash, an attacker could get a party to attest to one, and then claim that the party had attested to the ...
In cryptography, a timing attack is a side-channel attack in which the attacker attempts to compromise a cryptosystem by analyzing the time taken to execute cryptographic algorithms. Every logical operation in a computer takes time to execute, and the time can differ based on the input; with precise measurements of the time for each operation ...
In cryptography and computer security, a length extension attack is a type of attack where an attacker can use Hash(message 1) and the length of message 1 to calculate Hash(message 1 ‖ message 2) for an attacker-controlled message 2, without needing to know the content of message 1.
