Description:

abeattacks 1.0.1

abeattacks
This python module contain the attacks against ABE schemes presented
at Black Hat Europe 2021 by Antonio de la Piedra and Marloes Venema.
At the CT-RSA 2021 conference, Venema and Alpár presented attacks against 11 ABE and MA-ABE schemes, including the highly cited DAC-MACS scheme with applications to the cloud.
We demonstrate the practicality of the attacks providing:
- A decryption attack against DAC-MACS, where a single user is able to decrypt ciphertexts with policies she cannot satisfy. This user does not even need to collude with other users or corrupt an authority.
- A decryption attack with corruption of one of the authorities against the YJ14-MA-ABE scheme.
- A decryption attack against the YCT14 scheme where two users collude in order to obtain a decryption key based on the work of Tan et al. and Herranz (2019).
