Two attacks on a user friendly remote authentication scheme with smart cards

Published: 01 April 2005 Publication History

Abstract

Recently, Wu and Chieu proposed a user-friendly remote authentication scheme with smart card. In their scheme, the users can choose and change their passwords freely. However, their scheme is insecure. In this paper, we propose two attacks on their scheme.
