Title
Preimage Attacks on One-Block MD4, 63-Step MD5 and More
Abstract
This paper shows preimage attacks on one-block MD4 and MD5 reduced to 63 (out of 64) steps. Our attacks are based on the meet-in-the-middle attack, and many additional improvements make the preimage computable faster than that of the brute-force attack, 2128 hash computation. A preimage of one-block MD4 can be computed in the complexity of the 2107 MD4 compression function computation, and a preimage of MD5 reduced to 63 steps can be computed in the complexity of the 2121 MD5 compression function computation. Moreover, we optimize the computational order of the brute-force attack against MD5, and a preimage of full-round MD5 can be computed in the complexity of the 2127 MD5 compression function computation.
