Abstract(in English) Biham and Seberry have submitted the stream cipher Py to the ECRYPT Stream Cipher Project (eSTREAM). In this paper, we present two useful methods for the key recovery attack against Py. First, we show the method for finding a secret key from a part of the initial state of Py. In this method, the required data size of the initial state is one fifth or less compared with the method proposed by Kogiso, Shimoyama, and Chao. And, the required data size of the initial state by our method is almost equal to that of the secret key. Additionally, we show the relation between the required data size of the initial state and the rate of the recoverable keys by our method. Second, we show the method to guess a part of the initial state from other part of the initial state with high probability. This method can reduce the computational time for reconstructing the initial state from the keystream.
