| + | abstract = {In this work, we propose the rebound attack, a new tool for the cryptanalysis of | ||
| + | hash functions. The idea of the rebound attack is to use the available degrees | ||
| + | of freedom in a collision attack to efficiently bypass the low probability parts | ||
| + | of a differential trail. The rebound attack consists of an inbound phase with a | ||
| + | match-in-the-middle part to exploit the available degrees of freedom, and a | ||
| + | subsequent probabilistic outbound phase. Especially on AES based hash | ||
| + | functions, the rebound attack leads to new attacks for a surprisingly high | ||
| + | number of rounds. | ||
| + | We use the rebound attack to construct collisions for 4.5 rounds of the 512-bit | ||
| + | hash function Whirlpool with a complexity of $2^{120}$ compression function | ||
| + | evaluations and negligible memory requirements. The attack can be extended to | ||
| + | a near-collision on 7.5 rounds of the compression function of Whirlpool and 8.5 | ||
| + | rounds of the similar hash function Maelstrom. Additionally, we apply the | ||
| + | rebound attack to the SHA-3 submission Grøstl, which leads to an attack on | ||
| + | 6 rounds of the Grøstl-256 compression function with a complexity of $2^{120}$ | ||
| + | and memory requirements of about $2^{64}$.} | ||
