The paper was created with using institutional support for long-term conceptual development of research organization University of Finance and Administration.

Questioning the Security of Three Recent Authentication and Key Agreement Protocols

“…2) We present an off-line password guessing by an insider attacker against the proposed protocol by Yu et al [22], IoV-SMAP. We also show that the protocol could be compromised under the Hosseinzadeh et al [24] adversarial model. 3) We show that it is possible to extend the Safkhani et al's attack on GUMAP family of protocols [20] to EGP also.…”

“…K V S is known to any vehicle or IS. Hence, following the adversarial model which has been proposed by Hosseinzadeh et al [24], compromising any vehicle compromises whole the network. The inverse of the binary value b (X )i…”

“…In the case of insider attacks, we assume that the transferred values over secure channel is also accessible by the adversary, however, s/he has no access to the secret parameters. In addition, we also consider the recent adversarial model which has been proposed by Hosseinzadeh et al [24], which investigates the impact of the compromising any node in the network on compromising whole the network.…”

SecMAP: A Secure RFID Mutual Authentication Protocol for Healthcare Systems

“…In 2012, Wang and Ma [34] proposed two RFID authentication protocols, a server-less one and a server-mounted one. But later analyses [35], [36] showed that the server-less version cannot resist traceability attacks, and the server-mounted version suffers from impersonation attacks. In 2015, Srivastava et al [37] proposed an authentication protocol to protect TIMSs, which is based on hash function and shared secrets.…”

“…This article shows that Safkhani et al's protocol [20] is lack of forward secrecy and scalability. In 2020, Hosseinzadeh et al [36] introduced an amended version of Wang and Ma's server-mounted protocol [34], addressing its security flaws.…”
