摘要
This paper first presents an impossible differential property for 5-round Advanced Encryption Standard （AES） with high probability. Based on the property and the impossible differential cryptanalytic method for the 5-round AES, a new method is proposed for cryptanalyzing the 8-round AES-192 and AES-256. This attack on the reduced 8-round AES-192 demands 2^121 words of memory, and performs 2^148 8-round AES-192 encryptions. This attack on the reduced 8-round AES-256 demands 2^153 words of memory, and performs 2^180 8-round AES-256 encryptions. Furthermore, both AES-192 and AES-256 require about 2^98 chosen plaintexts for this attack, and have the same probability that is only 2^-3 to fail to recover the secret key.
