Abstract

We construct an LWE-based key-policy attribute-based encryption (ABE) scheme that supports attributes of unbounded polynomial length. Namely, the size of the public parameters is a fixed polynomial in the security parameter and a depth bound, and with these fixed length parameters, one can encrypt attributes of arbitrary length. Similarly, any polynomial size circuit that adheres to the depth bound can be used as the policy circuit regardless of its input length (recall that a depth d circuit can have as many as \(2^d\) inputs). This is in contrast to previous LWE-based schemes where the length of the public parameters has to grow linearly with the maximal attribute length.
We prove that our scheme is semi-adaptively secure, namely, the adversary can choose the challenge attribute after seeing the public parameters (but before any decryption keys). Previous LWE-based constructions were only able to achieve selective security. (We stress that the “complexity leveraging” technique is not applicable for unbounded attributes).
We believe that our techniques are of interest at least as much as our end result. Fundamentally, selective security and bounded attributes are both shortcomings that arise out of the current LWE proof techniques that program the challenge attributes into the public parameters. The LWE toolbox we develop in this work allows us to delay this programming. In a nutshell, the new tools include a way to generate an a-priori unbounded sequence of LWE matrices, and have fine-grained control over which trapdoor is embedded in each and every one of them, all with succinct representation.

Fußnoten
1
We follow, here and after, the convention that \(f(x)=0\) signifies the ability to decrypt. This is the opposite of the standard convention, and is done purely for our convenience in the technical sections.
 
2
One can modify the circuit-ABE constructions of [9, 20] to support unbounded attributes in the (programmable) random oracle model. Our focus in this paper is on constructions in the standard model.
 
3
Note that this “negated policy” formulation is obviously equivalent to the standard formulation in the literature wherein decryption succeeds if \(f(x)=1\). From this point and on, purely for our convenience in the technical sections, we will assume that a ciphertext should be decryptable if \(f(x)=0\) and not decryptable otherwise.
 
4
The proofs of the other circuit-ABE schemes from standard assumptions, namely [14, 19], follow along similar lines.
 
5
Recall our convention that \(f(x) = 0\) is the event when decryption succeeds.
