Attacks on a Lightweight Cipher Based on a Multiple Recursive Generator
Lu Xiao and Gregory G. Rose
Abstract
At IEEE GLOBECOM 2008, a lightweight cipher based on a Multiple Recursive Generator (MRG) was proposed for use in resource limited environment such as sensor nodes and RFID tags. This paper proposes two efficient attacks on this MRG cipher. A distinguishing attack is firstly introduced to identify the use of an MRG cipher that has a modulus suggested by its designers. It requires
