摘要
This paper studies the differential analysis of Extended Generalized Feistel Networks (EGFNs). First we construct a class of differential characteristics which conflict with designers' evaluation of minimal number of active S-boxes for EGFN. Then by analyzing the difference cancellation property of EGFN, we propose a method to search a special type of differential characteristics with high probability. We obtain the best case of this kind of differential characteristic for EGFN with block number 4 <= k <= 32. Our results show that for EGFN with k >= 8 there always exist high probability iterative differential characteristics and their number of active S-boxes for 20-round all are equal to 26. Therefore, the actual ability of EGFN resisting differential analysis may be a lot weaker than evaluated by designers and larger block size cannot improve the situation. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.
