Abstract

In 2000, Hwang et al. made an improvement on Sun's threshold proxy signature scheme. In 2004, Tzeng et al. present that Hwang et al.'s scheme is vulnerable against attack. A malicious original signer can forge the threshold proxy signatures without the agreement of the proxy signers. Tzeng et al. also constructed a nonrepudiable threshold proxy signature scheme with known signers and claimed the proposed scheme improved the security of Hwang et al.'s scheme. In this paper, we pointed that reasoning in THY-scheme exist severity error. Since it is repaired hardly possible that this reasoning in secret share generation phase of THY-scheme existed error, therefore THY-scheme is not useful even though changed some formulae.
