摘要
In recent two years, zero correlation linear cryptanalysis has shown its great potential in cryptanalysis and it has proven to be effective against massive ciphers. LEA is a block cipher proposed by Deukjo Hong, who is the designer of an ISO standard block cipher - HIGHT. This paper evaluates the security level on LEA family ciphers against zero correlation linear cryptanalysis. Firstly, we identify some 9-round zero correlation linear hulls for LEA. Accordingly, we propose a distinguishing attack on all variants of 9-round LEA family ciphers. Then we propose the first zero correlation linear cryptanalysis on 13-round LEA-192 and 14-round LEA-256. For 13-round LEA-192, we propose a key recovery attack with time complexity of 2131.30 13-round LEA encryptions, data complexity of 2128 plaintext-ciphertext pairs and memory complexity of 260.58 bytes. For 14-round LEA-256, we propose a key recovery attack with time complexity of 2250.19 14-round LEA encryptions, data complexity of 2128 plaintext-ciphertext pairs and memory complexity of 2142.35 bytes. As far as we know, these are the best results on LEA using zero correlation linear cryptanalysis so far. © 2016 Journal of Communications.
