Linkability of Several Blind Signature Schemes

Xuesheng Zhong

Abstract: The unlinkability is an important security property that blind signature schemes should satisfy. But we find that the several blind signature schemes [1,2,3] are linkable. The Signer can derive a link between a protocol view and a valid blind signature. They are not secure.

Category / Keywords: cryptographic protocols / blind signature, anonymity, protocol view, linkability.
