Question

Consider the following 4-message protocol between A and B, where (N+1) represents the increment of N:

  1. A → B: (A, {NA}KAB)
  2. B → A: {(NA+1, NB)}KAB
  3. A → B: {NB+1}KAB
  4. B → A: {(K’AB, NA)}KAB

Which of the following mutations to messages of the protocol above, would constitute a harmful attack:

  1. a) 1. A → B: (C, {NA}KAB)
  2. b) 1. A → B: ({NA}KAB, A)
  3. c) 4. B → A: {(KAB, NA)}KAB
  4. d) 4. B → A: {(K’AB, NB+1)}KAB
  5. e) 3. A → B: {NB+1}KpbB
  6. f) 2. B → A: {(NA+1, NA)}KAB
