Introduction Stateful hash based signatures have small private and public keys, are efficient to compute, and are believed to have excellent security. One disadvantage is that the signatures they produce tend to be somewhat large (possibly 1k - 4kbytes). What this draft explores are a set of parameter sets to the LMS (RFC8554) stateful hash based signature method that reduce the size of the signature significantly or rely on a hash function other than SHA-256 (to increase cryptodiversity). This document is intended to be compatible with the NIST document [NIST_SP_800-208]. 1.1. Disclaimer This document is not intended as legal advice.

Additional Hash Function Definitions 3.1. 192 bit Hash Function based on SHA256 This document defines a SHA-2 based hash function with a 192 bit output. As such, we define SHA256-192 as a truncated version of SHA256 [FIPS180]. That is, it is the result of performing a SHA256 operation to a message, and then omitting the final 64 bits of the output. It is the same procedure used to define SHA224, except that we use the SHA256 IV (rather than using one dedicated to SHA256-192), and you truncate 64 bits, rather than 32. The following test vector may illustrate this: SHA256("abc") = ba7816bf 8f01cfea 414140de 5dae2223 b00361a3 96177a9c b410ff61 f20015ad SHA256-192("abc") = ba7816bf 8f01cfea 414140de 5dae2223 b00361a3 96177a9c We use the same IV as the untruncated SHA256, rather than defining a distinct one, so that we can use a standard SHA256 hash implementation without modification. In addition, the fact that you get partial knowledge of the SHA256 hash of a message by examining the SHA256-192 hash of the same message is not a concern for this application. Each message that is hashed is randomized. Any message being signed includes the C randomizer (a value that is selected by the encryptor and is included in the hash) which varies per message. Therefore, signing the same message by SHA256 and by SHA256-192 will not result in the same value being hashed, and so the latter hash value is not a prefix of the former one. In addition, all hashes include the I identifier, which is extracted from the public key, and so two internal hashes from a SHA256 private key and a SHA256-192 private key will also be distinct. 3.2. 256 bit Hash Function based on SHAKE256 This document defines a SHAKE-based hash function with a 256 bit output. As such, we define SHAKE256-256 as a hash where you submit the preimage to the SHAKE256 XOF, with the output being 256 bits, see FIPS 202 [FIPS202] for more detail. Fluhrer & Dang Expires 28 August 2023 [Page 3] Internet-Draft Additional LMS Signatures February 2023 3.3. 192 bit Hash Function based on SHAKE256 This document defines a SHAKE-based hash function with a 192 bit output. As such, we define SHAKE256-192 as a hash where you submit the preimage to the SHAKE256 XOF, with the output being 192 bits, see FIPS 202 [FIPS202] for more detail. 4.

Fluhrer & Dang Expires 28 August 2023 [Page 4] Internet-Draft Additional LMS Signatures February 2023 Remember that the C message randomizer (which is included in the signature) is the size of the hash n, and so it shrinks from 32 bytes to 24 bytes for those the parameter sets that use either SHA256-192 or SHAKE256-192. 5.

Fluhrer & Dang Expires 28 August 2023 [Page 5] Internet-Draft Additional LMS Signatures February 2023 The SHA256_M24, SHAKE_M32, SHAKE_M24 in the parameter set name denote the SHA256-192, SHAKE256-256 and SHAKE256-192 hash functions defined in Section 3. 6. Comparisons of 192 bit and 256 bit parameter sets Switching to a 192 bit hash affects the signature size, the computation time, and the security strength. The major reason for considering these truncated parameter sets is that they cause the signatures to shrink considerably. Here is a table that gives the space used by both the 256 bit parameter sets and the 192 bit parameter sets, for a range of plausible Winternitz parameters and tree heights +=========+============+==============+==============+ | ParmSet | Winternitz | 256 bit hash | 192 bit hash | +=========+============+==============+==============+ | 15 | 4 | 2672 | 1624 | +---------+------------+--------------+--------------+ | 15 | 8 | 1616 | 1024 | +---------+------------+--------------+--------------+ | 20 | 4 | 2832 | 1744 | +---------+------------+--------------+--------------+ | 20 | 8 | 1776 | 1144 | +---------+------------+--------------+--------------+ | 15/10 | 4 | 5236 | 3172 | +---------+------------+--------------+--------------+ | 15/10 | 8 | 3124 | 1972 | +---------+------------+--------------+--------------+ | 15/15 | 4 | 5396 | 3292 | +---------+------------+--------------+--------------+ | 15/15 | 8 | 3284 | 2092 | +---------+------------+--------------+--------------+ | 20/10 | 4 | 5396 | 3292 | +---------+------------+--------------+--------------+ | 20/10 | 8 | 3284 | 2092 | +---------+------------+--------------+--------------+ | 20/15 | 4 | 5556 | 3412 | +---------+------------+--------------+--------------+ | 20/15 | 8 | 3444 | 2212 | +---------+------------+--------------+--------------+ Table 3 Fluhrer & Dang Expires 28 August 2023 [Page 6] Internet-Draft Additional LMS Signatures February 2023 ParmSet: this is the height of the Merkle tree(s); parameter sets listed as a single integer have L=1, and consist a single Merkle tree of that height; parameter sets with L=2 are listed as x/y, with x being the height of the top level Merkle tree, and y being the bottom level. Winternitz: this is the Winternitz parameter used (for the tests that use multiple trees, this applies to all of them). 256 bit hash: the size in bytes of a signature, assuming that a 256 bit hash is used in the signature (either SHA256 or SHAKE256-256). 192 bit hash: the size in bytes of a signature, assuming that a 192 bit hash is used in the signature (either SHA256-192 or SHAKE256-192). An examination of the signature sizes show that the 192 bit parameters consistently give a 35% - 40% reduction in the size of the signature in comparison with the 256 bit parameters. In addition, for SHA256-192, there is a smaller (circa 20%) reduction in the amount of computation required for a signature operation with a 192 bit hash. The SHAKE256-192 signatures may have either a faster or slower computation, depending on the implementation speed of SHAKE versus SHA256 hashes. The SHAKE256-256 based parameter sets give no space advantage (or disadvantage) over the existing SHA256-based parameter sets; any performance delta would depend solely on the implementation and whether they can generate SHAKE hashes faster than SHA256 ones. 7. Parameter Set Selection This document, along with RFC 8554, defines four hash functions for use within LMS; namely SHA256, SHA256-192, SHAKE256 and SHAKE256-192. The main reason one would select a hash with a 192 bit output (either SHA256-192 or SHAKE256-192) would be to reduce the signature size; this does some at a cost of reducing the security margin; however the security should be sufficient for most uses. In contrast, there is no security or signature size difference between the SHA256 based parameter sets (SHA256 or SHA256-192) versus the SHAKE based parameter sets (SHAKE256 or SHAKE256-192); the reason for selecting between the two would be based on practical ones, for example, if your implementation happens to have an existing SHA-256 (or SHAKE) implementation already present or if one of the two happens to give better hashing performance on your platform. Fluhrer & Dang Expires 28 August 2023 [Page 7] Internet-Draft Additional LMS Signatures February 2023 8. Security Considerations The strength of a signature that uses the SHA256-192, SHAKE256-256 and SHAKE256-192 hash functions is based on the difficultly in finding preimages or second preimages to those hash functions. The case of SHAKE256-256 is essentially the same as the existing SHA256 based signatures; the difficultly of finding preimages is essentially the same, and so they have (barring unexpected cryptographical advances) essentially the same level of security. The case of SHA256-192 and SHAKE256-192 requires closer analysis. For a classical (nonquantum) computer, they have no known attack better than performing hashes of a large number of distinct preimages; as a successful attack has a high probability of requiring nearly 2**192 hash computations (for either SHA256-192 or SHAKE256-192). These can be taken as the expected work effort, and would appear to be completely infeasible in practice. For a Quantum Computer, they could in theory use a Grover's algorithm to reduce the expected complexity required to circa 2**96 hash computations (for N=24). On the other hand, to implement Grover's algorithm with this number of hash computations would require performing circa 2**96 hash computations in succession, which will take more time than is likely to be acceptable to any attacker. To speed this up, the attacker would need to run a number of instances of Grover's algorithm in parallel. This would necessarily increase the total work effort required, and to an extent that makes it likely to be infeasible. Hence, we expect that LMS based on these hash functions is secure against both classical and quantum computers, even though, in both cases, the expected work effort is less (for the N=24 case) than against either SHA256 or SHAKE256-256. 8.1. Note on the version of SHAKE FIPS 202 defines both SHAKE128 and SHAKE256. This specification selects SHAKE256, even though it is, for large messages, less efficient. The reason is that SHAKE128 has a low upper bound on the difficulty of finding preimages (due to the invertibility of its internal permutation), which would limit the strength of LMS (whose strength is based on the difficulty of finding preimages). Hence, we specify the use of SHAKE256, which has a considerably stronger preimage resistance. 9.
