Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) The first three bytes of the RC4 key in WPA are derived from the public parameter IV, and also the attacker can obtain them. These keys cause the initial keystream and the permutation strong correlations. In FSE 2014, Sen Gupta et al. and Paterson et al. proposed the plaintext recovery attack using them, and Ito et al. proposed the state recovery attack using them in SCIS 2015. In this paper, motivated by the work of Sen Gupta et al., we show the new linear correlations which allow us to guess the fourth byte of the key with high probability for the key recovery attack. Further, we propose new analysis method using the combined linear correlation having bias toward the arbitrary value.
