A lattice attack on homomorphic NTRU with non-invertible public keys

초록/요약

In 2011, Stehlé and Steinfeld modified the original NTRU to get a provably IND-CPA secure NTRU under the hardness assumption of standard worst-case problems over ideal lattices. In 2012, López-Alt et al. proposed the first multikey fully homomorphic encryption scheme based on the IND-CPA secure NTRU. Interestingly, this homomorphic NTRU and subsequent homomorphic variants of NTRU removed the condition ‘invertible public key’ of the underlying IND-CPA secure NTRU. In this paper, we investigate the security influence of using non-invertible public key in the homomorphic NTRU. As a result, we present how to mount a lattice attack to message recovery for the homomorphic NTRU when the public key is non-invertible. Our result suggests that using invertible public keys in the homomorphic NTRU is necessary for its security. © Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature 2018.
