Circuit camouflaging techniques have been proposed to thwart reverse engineering (RE) attacks to integrated circuits (IC). In one of the most well-known camouflaging methods, selective XOR, NAND, and NOR gates are replaced by configurable logic units which have the same appearance to the RE attackers. It is argued that a successful attack has to brute force search all the camouflaged gates' possible {XOR, NAND, NOR} combinations, resulting in the attack complexity exponential to the number of camouflaged gates. In this paper, we have reported an attack to significantly reduce this complexity by partitioning the IC to many subcircuits to attack individually. We validate the power of the proposed circuit partition based attack on IS CA S benchmark suite and OpenSparc T1 microprocessor, and propose a potential countermeasure to re-secure IC camouflaging.
