Forging 1024-bit RSA signatures in nearly SNFS time
Alternate title: Nearly SNFS-Speed Signature Forgery Sans Factoring N (NSNFSSSFSFN)
Abstract. The security of RSA is generally understood to be based on
the complexity of factoring, and key size parameters are extrapolated
from the general number field sieve (GNFS). However, this may not
accurately represent RSA security in practical scenarios.
An under-appreciated 2007 algorithm of Joux, Naccache, and Thomé
allows an attacker to forge RSA signatures after temporary access to a
raw RSA sig...
