• Authors: Mina Doosti, Mahshid Delavar, Elham Kashefi, and Myrto Arapinis
• Abstract summary: We develop a general and parameterised quantum game-based security model unifying unforgeability for both classical and quantum constructions. We prove how our definitions subsume previous ones while considering more fine-grained adversarial models. We show that the strongest level of unforgeability, namely existential unforgeability, can only be achieved if only to previously queried messages are considered to be forgeries.

• Abstract: In this paper, we continue the line of work initiated by Boneh and Zhandry at CRYPTO 2013 and EUROCRYPT 2013 in which they formally define the notion of unforgeability against quantum adversaries specifically, for classical message authentication codes and classical digital signatures schemes. We develop a general and parameterised quantum game-based security model unifying unforgeability for both classical and quantum constructions allowing us for the first time to present a complete quantum cryptanalysis framework for unforgeability. In particular, we prove how our definitions subsume previous ones while considering more fine-grained adversarial models, capturing the full spectrum of superposition attacks. The subtlety here resides in the characterisation of a forgery. We show that the strongest level of unforgeability, namely existential unforgeability, can only be achieved if only orthogonal to previously queried messages are considered to be forgeries. In particular, we present a non-trivial attack if any overlap between the forged message and previously queried ones is allowed. We further show that deterministic constructions can only achieve the weaker notion of unforgeability, that is selective unforgeability, against such restricted adversaries, but that selective unforgeability breaks if general quantum adversaries (capable of general superposition attacks) are considered. On the other hand, we show that PRF is sufficient for constructing a selective unforgeable classical primitive against full quantum adversaries. Moreover, we show similar positive results relying on Pseudorandom Unitaries (PRU) for quantum primitives. These results demonstrate the generality of our framework that could be applicable to other primitives beyond the cases analysed in this paper.

  Indifferentiability is a cryptographic paradigm for analyzing the security of ideal objects. Despite its strength, indifferentiability is not known to offer security against pre-processing attacks. We propose a strengthening of indifferentiability which is not only composable but also takes arbitrary pre-computation into account.

We provide a compiler that takes as input a classical proof of quantum knowledge (PoQK) protocol for a QMA relation R and outputs a zero-knowledge PoQK for R that can be verified by classical parties.

  We propose a natural definition of unforgeability against quantum adversaries called blind unforgeability. This notion defines a function to be predictable if there exists an adversary who can use "partially blinded" access to predict values. We show the suitability of blind unforgeability for supporting canonical constructions and reductions.
