Aug 19, 2015 at 19:22 | comment | added | Yevgeny Rosenthal | you are right regarding the meaning of 'security'. the problem in my first reduction -as I think- is that in both cases (when $g_3=g^{xy}$ and $g_3=g^z$ ) the difference was in the $Transport$ and not in the $Key$, while in the definition of security, the adversary should receive in both cases a valid $Transport$ and in first case real key while in the other it should receive a key distributed uniformly | |
Aug 19, 2015 at 15:33 | comment | added | user2552 | By "security", I presume that you mean the real key is indistinguishable from a random one to a passive attacker - I don't think this protocol is actively/MITM secure, for example. Your first reduction actually looks ok to me, I don't understand what the problem is? | |
