Abstract

In 2006, both Liu et al. and Yeh proposed an improvement of Chien et al.’s timestamp-based remote user authentication scheme with smart cards, that can withstand parallel session and forgery attacks, respectively. The current paper demonstrates that Liu et al.’s scheme is still vulnerable to a masquerading server attack and a more efficient and secure scheme is needed. One that not only resolves such problems, but also involves less computations and communication than these schemes.
