Abstract

Linear attack is primarily introduced for DES encryption system by Matsui. This particular cryptanalysis was based on linear approximation of nonlinear S-boxes within the algorithm. This kind of attack is then deployed for many other block ciphers. This paper describes linear attack on second round mini-AES. By using this cryptanalysis, it is possible to attack on full round of mini-AES algorithm. Undoubtedly, one of the most important results of this cryptanalysis is that it is possible to better understand linear attack on Rijndael
