Title
Adversary-dependent Lossy Trapdoor Function from Hardness of Factoring Semi-smooth RSA Subgroup Moduli.
Abstract
Lossy trapdoor functions LTDFs, proposed by Peikert and Waters STOC'08, are known to have a number of applications in cryptography. They have been constructed based on various assumptions, which include the quadratic residuosity QR and decisional composite residuosity DCR assumptions, which are factoring-based decision assumptions. However, there is no known construction of an LTDF based on the factoring assumption or other factoring-related search assumptions. In this paper, we first define a notion of adversary-dependent lossy trapdoor functions ad-LTDFs that is a weaker variant of LTDFs. Then we construct an ad-LTDF based on the hardness of factorizing RSA moduli of a special form called semi-smooth RSA subgroup SS moduli proposed by Groth TCC'05. Moreover, we show that ad-LTDFs can replace LTDFs in many applications. Especially, we obtain the first factoring-based deterministic encryption scheme that satisfies the security notion defined by Boldyreva et al. CRYPTO'08 without relying on a decision assumption. Besides direct applications of ad-LTDFs, by a similar technique, we construct a chosen ciphertext secure public key encryption scheme whose ciphertext overhead is the shortest among existing schemes based on the factoring assumption w.r.t. SS moduli.
