2 Cryptanalysis

We distinguish between two cases: results on the complete hash function, and results on underlying building blocks.

A description of the tables is given here.

Recommended security parameters: (k,r,t) = (2,5,13) for (n=224,256); (k,r,t) = (3,5,13) for (n=384); (k,r,t) = (4,8,13) for (n=512)

2.1 Hash function

Here we list results on the hash function according to the NIST requirements. The only allowed modification is to change the security parameter.

Type of Analysis	Hash Size (n)	Parameters	Compression Function Calls	Memory Requirements	Reference
internal collision	256	(2,5,13)	2352	2352	Khovratovich
internal collision	512	(4,8,13)	2480	2480	Khovratovich

2.2 Building blocks

Here we list results on underlying building blocks, and the hash function modified by other means than the security parameter.

Note that these results assume more direct control or access over some internal variables (aka. free-start, pseudo, compression function, block cipher, or permutation attacks).
