Cryptanalysis of FRS obfuscation based on the CLT13 multilinear map by Jiseung Kim, Changmin Lee

“…Abstract The authors present a classical polynomial‐time attack against the branching program obfuscator of Fernando–Rasmussen–Sahai (for short FRS, Asiacrypt’17) (with one zerotest parameter), which is robust against all known classical cryptanalyses on obfuscators when instantiated with the CLT13 multilinear map. …”
