Abstract(in English) Biham and Seberry have submitted the stream cipher Py to the ECRYPT Stream Cipher Project (eSTREAM). A key recovery attack against Py was proposed by Wu and Preneel. In that attack, (IV sizeb-9) bytes of the key can be recovered from (IV sizeb-4)×2^<19> chosen IVs, where IV sizeb indicates the size of the IV in bytes. For 128-bit key and 128-bit IV, the essential length of the key is reduced to 72 bits with about 2^<24> chosen IVs. In this paper, we propose the key recovery attack which has two processes in addition to those of Wu and Preneel. In this attack, (IV sizeb-6) bytes of the key can be recovered from (IV sizeb-4)×2^<19> chosen IVs. For 128-bit key and 128-bit IV, the essential length of the key is reduced to 48 bits with about 2^<24> chosen IVs.
