Cryptanalysis of an Exquisite Mutual Authentication Scheme with Key Agreement Using Smart Card

He Debiao, Chen Jianhua, and Hu Jin

Abstract

The weakness of an exquisite authentication scheme based on smart cards and passwords proposed by Liao et al. [C. H. Liao, H. C. Chen, and C. T. Wang, An Exquisite Mutual Authentication Scheme with Key Agreement Using Smart Card, Informatica, Vol. 33, No. 2, 2009, 125-132.] is analyzed. Five kinds of weakness are presented in different scenarios. The analyses show that Liao et al.’s scheme is insecure for practical application.
