Mythos attack on 3rd-round PQC algorithm candidate puts it out of commission
摘要
一种名为HAWK的后量子密码学算法在参与美国国家标准与技术研究院（NIST）第三轮测试时被淘汰。Anthropic的安全模型“Mythos”发现了该算法中的一个漏洞，使其安全性失效。HAWK是一种旨在抵御未来量子计算机攻击的数字签名方案，此前已通过两轮测试。该漏洞在专门用于发现此类缺陷的第三轮测试中被检出。HAWK的开发者已于周二宣布撤回该算法。
A quantum-resistant cryptography algorithm that was under consideration to become an official US standard has been taken out of the running after an Anthropic security model helped find a flaw that rendered it broken.
The algorithm taken out of commission is known as HAWK. It's a digital signature scheme designed to withstand future attacks from quantum computers. HAWK had survived two rounds of testing by NIST (the National Institute of Standards and Technology) for evaluating the security of PQC (post-quantum cryptographic) algorithms through widespread testing. HAWK was in a third round of testing designed to catch precisely the kinds of flaws Mythos helped uncover.
As a result of results Anthropic announced Monday, the developer of HAWK said Tuesday he was withdrawing it.
