SNOW 2.0 was developed by Johansson and Ekdahl in 2002, as a modified version of SNOW 1.0. In this paper we present the application of linear (masking) attack to SNOW 2.0 stream cipher. Our attack requires 2225 output words (2230 bits) and 2225 steps of analysis to distinguish the output of SNOW 2.0 from a truly random bit sequence.
