{"title":"Instantiating the Hash-then-evaluate paradigm: Strengthening PRFs, PCFs, and OPRFs.","authors":"Chris Brzuska, Geoffroy Couteau, Christoph Egger, Pihla Karanko, Pierre Meyer","doi":"10.1007/s12095-025-00825-3","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1007/s12095-025-00825-3","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>We instantiate the hash-then-evaluate paradigm for pseudorandom functions (PRFs), <math><mrow><mi>PRF</mi> <mo>(</mo> <mi>k</mi> <mo>,</mo> <mi>x</mi> <mo>)</mo> <mo>:</mo> <mo>=</mo> <mi>wPRF</mi> <mo>(</mo> <mi>k</mi> <mo>,</mo> <mi>RO</mi> <mo>(</mo> <mi>x</mi> <mo>)</mo> <mo>)</mo></mrow> </math> , which builds a PRF <math><mi>PRF</mi></math> from a weak PRF <math><mi>wPRF</mi></math> via a <i>public</i> pre-processing random oracle <math><mi>RO</mi></math> . In applications to secure multiparty computation (MPC), only the low-complexity <math><mi>wPRF</mi></math> performs secret-depending operations. Our construction replaces <math><mi>RO</mi></math> by <math><mrow><mi>f</mi> <mo>(</mo> <msub><mi>k</mi> <mi>H</mi></msub> <mo>,</mo> <mi>elf</mi> <mrow><mo>(</mo> <mi>x</mi> <mo>)</mo></mrow> <mo>)</mo></mrow> </math> , where <i>f</i> is a non-adaptive PRF and the key <math><msub><mi>k</mi> <mi>H</mi></msub> </math> is <i>public</i> and thus known to the distinguishing adversary. We show that, perhaps surprisingly, several existing weak PRF candidates are plausibly also secure when their inputs are generated by <math><mrow><mi>f</mi> <mo>(</mo> <msub><mi>k</mi> <mi>H</mi></msub> <mo>,</mo> <mi>elf</mi> <mrow><mo>(</mo> <mo>.</mo> <mo>)</mo></mrow> <mo>)</mo></mrow> </math> . Firstly, analogous cryptanalysis applies (because pseudorandomness of <i>f</i> implies good statistical properties) and/or secondly an attack against the weak PRF with such pseudorandom inputs generated by <i>f</i> would imply surprising results such as key agreement from the hardness of the high-noise version of the Learning Parity with Noise (LPN) when implementing both <math><mi>wPRF</mi></math> and <i>f</i> from this assumption. Our simple transformation of replacing <math><mrow><mi>RO</mi> <mo>(</mo> <mo>·</mo> <mo>)</mo></mrow> </math> public pre-processing by <math><mrow><mi>f</mi> <mo>(</mo> <msub><mi>k</mi> <mi>H</mi></msub> <mo>,</mo> <mi>elf</mi> <mrow><mo>(</mo> <mi>x</mi> <mo>)</mo></mrow> <mo>)</mo></mrow> </math> public pre-processing applies to the entire family of PRF-style functions. Specifically, we obtain results for oblivious PRFs, which are a core building block for password-based authenticated key exchange (PAKE) and private set intersection (PSI) protocols, and we also obtain results for pseudorandom correlation functions (PCF), which are a key tool for silent oblivious transfer (OT) extension.</p>","PeriodicalId":48936,"journal":{"name":"Cryptography and Communications-Discrete-Structures Boolean Functions and Sequences","volume":"17 5","pages":"1325-1366"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12474740/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145187094","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
