In this attack the scenario allows the attacker to apply adaptive chosen plaintext and adaptive chosen ciphertext queries simultaneously. The attack is one of the most powerful in terms of the capabilities of the attacker. The only two examples of such attacks known to date are the boomerang attack [2] and the yoyo-game [1].
