Abstract

This note shows practical committing attacks against Rocca-S, an authenticated encryption with associated data scheme designed for 6G applications. Previously, the best complexity of the attack was $2^{64}$ by Derbez et al. in ToSC 2024(1)/FSE 2024. We show that the committing attack against Rocca by Takeuchi et al. in ToSC 2024(2)/FSE 2025 can be applied to Rocca-S, where Rocca is an earlier version of Rocca-S. We show a concrete test vector of our attack. We also point out a committing attack that exploits equivalent keys.
