Apparently I can only get a #Eurocrypt paper (or two) once every 5 years 🙃 (since 2016)
🐝The COSIC blog has been buzzing lately!

Towards Optimally Secure Deterministic Authenticated Encryption Schemes

The public comments received for the review process for NIST (SP) 800-38A pointed out two important issues that most companies face: (1) the limited security that AES can provide due to its 128-bit block size and (2) the problem of nonce-misuse in practice. In this...

Michiel Verbauwhede presented "Cryptanalysis of Full SCARF" today at #eurocrypt 2025 in Madrid, Spain: https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-031-91107-1_14
Cryptanalysis of Full SCARF

SCARF is a tweakable block cipher dedicated to cache address randomization, proposed at the USENIX Security conference. It has a 10-bit block, 48-bit tweak, and 240-bit key. SCARF is aggressively optimized to meet the harsh latency constraints of cache address...

Mingjie Chen presented "Computing the endomorphism ring of a supersingular elliptic curve from a full rank suborder" today at #eurocrypt 2025 in Madrid, Spain: https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-031-91095-1_16
Computing the Endomorphism Ring of a Supersingular Elliptic Curve from a Full Rank Suborder

In this paper, we study the problem of computing the endomorphism ring of a supersingular elliptic curve given the knowledge of a full rank suborder. We provide a polynomial time quantum algorithm to solve this problem in full generality. This result enhances our...
