Abstract: In this paper we consider the problem of efficiently locating cryptographic keys hidden in gigabytes of data, such as the complete file system of a typical PC. We describe efficient algebraic attacks which can locate secret RSA keys in long bit strings, and more general statistical attacks which can find arbitrary cryptographic keys embedded in large programs. These techniques can be used to apply lunchtime attacks on signature keys used by financial institutes, or to defeat ... (Update)

...on signature schemes that work in the general case. As for CAPI, the attack found by nCipher is completely di#erent: it is documented in [11]. I understand from them that in the end it was never necessary to exploit it. 4 Historical note: I first talked about forward secure...
...access to the key and thereby the policy. Hiding the key does not really help in the long run as Shamir and van Someren demonstrates in [14]. Beside this, we could be stuck with the problem of distributing keys to a possibly vast number of hosts, if the IDS or the firewall is...
