We give three variants and improvements of Bleichenbacher’s low-exponent attack from CRYPTO 2006 on PKCS#1 v1.5 RSA signatures. For each of these three variants the fake signature representatives are accepted as valid by a flawed implementation. Our attacks work against much shorter keys as Bleichenbacher’s original attack, i.e. even for usual 1024 bit RSA keys. The first two variants can be used to break a certificate chain for vulnerable implementations, if the CA uses a public exponent of 3… Expand
