| Resumo |
Dragon stream cipher is one of the focus ciphers which have reached Phase 2 of the eSTREAMproject. In this paper, we present a new method of building a linear distinguisher for Dragon. The distinguisher is constructed by exploiting the biases of two S-boxes and the modular addition which are basic components of the nonlinear function F. The bias of the distinguisher is estimated to be around 2−75.32 which is better than the bias of the distinguisher presented by Englund and Maximov. We have shown that Dragon is distinguishable from a random cipher by using around 2150.6 keystream words and 259 memory. In addition, we present a very efficient algorithm for computing the bias of linear approximation of modular addition. |
