Abstract:

A perfect concurrent signature protocol proposed by Huang et al in 2007 is analyzed. Two attacks are given out to show that there are two weaknesses in Huang's protocol: firstly, both participators A and B can change the signed messages after the concurrent signature protocol is completed; secondly, both A and B can forge a concurrent signature themselves. To prevent such forgery attacks, an improved protocol is proposed by adding authentication to the keystone information, and then the security of the improvement is analyzed.
