In 2004, Wu-Chieu proposed improvements to their original authentication scheme in order to strengthen it to withstand impersonation attacks. In 2005, Lee-Lin-Chang proposed improvements on Wu-Chieu’s original scheme so that not only could it withstand a forgery attack, but it required less computational costs and it was suitable for mobile communication. The current paper, however, demonstrates that Wu-Chieu’s improved scheme is vulnerable to an off-line password guessing attack and an impersonation attack by the use of a stolen smart card. Also, we demonstrates that Lee-Lin-Chang’s scheme is vulnerable to a forgery attack. Furthermore, we present a new authentication scheme based on a one-way hash function and Diffie-Hellman key exchange in order to isolate such problems and to provide mutual authentication between the user and the remote system.
