In this short note we show that for a quantum adversary such attacks are quite powerful: if the secret key is (i) uniquely determined by a small number of plaintext-ciphertext pairs, (ii) the block cipher can be evaluated efficiently, and (iii) a superposition of related keys can be queried, then the key can be extracted efficiently.}, publisher = {Elsevier}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/a-note-on-quantum-related-key-attacks/}, number = {MSR-TR-2014-130}, note = {also posted as arxiv:1306.2301}, }
