Full Domain Hash
In cryptography, the Full Domain Hash (FDH) is an RSA-based signature scheme that follows the hash-and-sign paradigm. It is provably secure (i.e., is existentially unforgeable under adaptive chosen-message attacks) in the random oracle model. FDH involves hashing a message using a function whose image size equals the size of the RSA modulus, and then raising the result to the secret RSA exponent.
Security
[edit ]In the random oracle model, if RSA is {\displaystyle (t',\epsilon ')}-secure, then the full domain hash RSA signature scheme is {\displaystyle (t,\epsilon )}-secure where,
- {\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}t&=t'-(q_{\text{hash}}+q_{\text{sig}}+1)\cdot {\mathcal {O}}\left(k^{3}\right)\\\epsilon &=\left(1+{\frac {1}{q_{\text{sig}}}}\right)^{q_{\text{sig}}+1}\cdot q_{\text{sig}}\cdot \epsilon '\end{aligned}}}.
For large {\displaystyle q_{\text{sig}}} this reduces to {\displaystyle \epsilon \sim \exp(1)\cdot q_{\text{sig}}\cdot \epsilon '}.
This means that if there exists an algorithm that can forge a new FDH signature that runs in time t, computes at most {\displaystyle q_{\text{hash}}} hashes, asks for at most {\displaystyle q_{\text{sig}}} signatures and succeeds with probability {\displaystyle \epsilon }, then there must also exist an algorithm that breaks RSA with probability {\displaystyle \epsilon '} in time {\displaystyle t'}.
