Abstract
NORX is a second round candidate of the ongoing CAESAR competition for authenticated encryption. It is a nonce based authenticated encryption scheme based on the sponge construction. Its two variants denoted by NORX32 and NORX64 provide a security level of 128 and 256 bits, respectively. In this paper, we present a state/key recovery attack for both variants with the number of rounds of the core permutation reduced to 2 (out of 4) rounds. The time complexity of the attack for NORX32 and NORX64 is
