Load-to-store: exploit the time leakage of store buffer transient window by Ming TANG, Yifan HU

“…To research the vulnerability of modern microarchitecture and consider the mitigation, memory order buffer which was responsible for managing the execution order of memory access instructions was analyzed and found that load forward would directly bypass the data of dependent store instructions to load instructions, and speculative load would execute independent load instructions in advance.While bring efficiency optimizations, it might also lead to errors and corresponding blocking.The existing optimization mechanisms on the Intel Coffee Lake microarchitecture, and the leak attack scheme by using them were analyzed.Using the four execution modes of MOB and the corresponding duration, a variety of attacks were constructed including transient attack, covert channel, and recovery of the private key of the cryptographic algorithm.The time difference caused by MOB was used to leak the address of memory instructions, and the implementation of AES T table was attacked.Key recovery experiments were conducted on AES-128 with OpenSSL 3.0.0 on an Intel i5-9400 processor.The experimental results show that 30 000 sets of samples can recover a key byte with a probability of 63.6%.Due to the characteristics of memory order buffer, the concealment of the exploit is better than traditional cache time leaks.…”

Fog-aided identity privacy protection scheme for sensing users in mobile crowd sensing by Hui LIU, Renwan BI, Jinbo XIONG, Mingfeng ZHAO, Biao JIN, Jie LIN

“…In mobile crowd sensing(MCS),attackers can reconstruct the social circle among sensing users,who use the social association information among sensing users and the correlation between the sensing user’s identity and sensing data to further attack a social alliance.In order to tackle this issue,a fog-aided identity privacy protection scheme is proposed.Firstly,two fog nodes are introduced which located at the edge of the sensing terminal.The one is task allocation center (TC) for handling the reasonable allocation of sensing tasks,and the other is data center (DC) for calculating sensing data.Furthermore,differential privacy is employed for preventing attackers from acquiring the specific social association weight of sensing users.Finally,in order to prevent attackers from obtaining the sensing users' identity information and sensing data at the same time,sensing users use different blind identities to communicate with TC and DC.Security analysis indicates that the proposed scheme can ensure the security of identity privacy information of sensing users in the process of completing sensing tasks.Experimental results show that the proposed scheme can protect the social association information between sensing users,and has a low delay.…”

Hish speed deep packet inspection method with low power dissipation by ZHU Guo-sheng1, YU Shao-hua1

“…Hish speed deep packet inspection using TCAM faces the problem of high power dissipation.A 2-phase DPI method BF-TCAM was proposed.The first phase used parallel Bloom filters to exclude the normal packets not including attack signatures.The second phase used TCAM to inspect suspicious packets including real attack packets and false positive packets of the first phase.The Bloom filters’ false negative probability is zero and false positive probability is very low.Since most of the network data traffic does not include attack signatures,the method can get high speed deep packet inspection with low power dissipation.…”

Geometrically synchronous watermarking algorithm based on the corner feature by LIU Quan1, ZHANG Le1, ZHANG Yong-gang2, Christian Bessiere3, FU Qi-ming1, WANG Xiao-yan1

“…Simple geometric attacks could destroy watermark or its position,causing the failure of most watermarking algorithm.A geometrically synchronous watermarking algorithm robust based on the corner feature was proposed.In this paper,the feature point was detected on the normalization of the image to resist geometric attack;the combination of Harris and MIC corner detected algorithm was utilized to extract steady corner based on analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of the two algorithm;the watermarking information was statistic embed in the shape of rings instead of changing the simply one pixel.Sufficient experiments demonstrate the robustness of this approach,especially in resisting geometry attack such as RST（rotation,scaling and translation）.…”

Approach to early detection and defense against internet worms by CHEN Bo, FANG Bin-xing, YUN Xiao-chun

“…A distributed defense mechanism was proposed.The main task of defense mechanism was to quickly detect worm attacks and response to constrain their propagation.The defense mechanism was composed of two parts: a date processing centre（DPC） and distributed sensors for defending against worm attacks.DPC is responsible for receiving the result of each distributed sensor and computing the number of infected computer.These distributed sensors monitor the network and detect worm.Once a worm attack was detected,a dropping packet mechanism is used so that the worm propagation was con-strained,and the number of interference with normal activity is minimized.The experimental results prove the robustness and efficiency of the proposed defense mechanism.…”

Correcting the security definition of the Bellare-Rogaway 3PKD model by LIU Jun1, LIAO Jian-xin1, ZHU Feng2, WANG Chun1

“…A flaw lied in the security definition of the Bellare-Rogaway 3PKD model,which was proposed by Bellare and Rogaway for three-party key distribution in 1995,was discovered.To reveal it,a new three-party key distribution proto-col P-Flaw was proposed.The protocol was provably secure under the Bellare-Rogaway 3PKD model.However the pro-tocol was not secure enough to withstand the server spoofing attack,known session key attack,and replay attack.The absence of the origin recognition for the distributed session key accounts for the flaw.Accordingly,the security definition of the Bellare-Rogaway 3PKD model was corrected based on matching conversation.…”
