A practical attack to Bouftass's cryptosystem

Abstract

Recently, a new fast public key exchange protocol was presented by S. Bouftass. The protocol is based on the difficulty of inverting the function F(x)= (zx 2p)/ 2q . In this paper, we describe a practical attack against this protocol based on Closest Vector Problem (CVP) and Gaussian lattice reduction.
