Alexandre Debant, Stéphanie Delaune, and Cyrille Wiedling. Symbolic analysis of terrorist fraud resistance. In Proceedings of the 24th European Symposium on Research in Computer Security (ESORICS'19), Lecture Notes in Computer Science, Springer, Luxembourg, 2019.
Distance-bounding protocols aim at preventing several kinds ofattacks, amongst which terrorist fraud, where a far away maliciousprover colludes with an attacker to authenticate once, without giving him any advantage for future authentication. In this paper, we consider a symbolic setting and propose a formaldefinition of terrorist fraud, as well as two reduction results.When looking for an attack, we can first restrict ourselves to consider a particular (and quite simple) topology. Moreover, under some mildhypotheses, the far away malicious prover has a best strategy on which we canfocus on when looking for an attack.These two reduction results make possiblethe analysis of terrorist fraud resistance using an existingverification tool. As an application, we analyse several distance-bounding protocols, as well as some contactless payment protocolsusing the ProVerif tool.
