A family of weak keys in HFE and the corresponding practical key-recovery
The HFE (hidden field equations) cryptosystem is one of the most interesting public-key multivariate schemes. It has been proposed more than 10 years ago by Patarin and seems to withstand the attacks that break many other multivariate schemes, since only subexponential ones have been proposed. The p...
