Abstract
This paper presents a new, generally applicable method to compute the probability of given differential (near-)collision paths in Merkle-Damgard-type hash functions. The path probability determines the expected workload to generate a collision (and thus the true risk potential of a particular attack). In particular, if the expected workload appears to be in a borderline region between practical feasibility and non-feasibility (as for SHA-1 collisions, for instance) it is desirable to know these probabilities as exact as possible. For MD5 we verified the accuracy of our approach experimentally. Our results underline both that the number of bit conditions only provides a rough estimate for the true path probability and the impact of the IV. An expanded version of this paper can be found online [GIS4].
