However, the initial chameleon hash schemes suffer from the key exposure problem： non-transferability is based on an unsound assumption that the designated receiver is willing to abuse his private key regardless of its exposure. Recently, several key-exposure-free chameleon hashes have been constructed based on RSA assumption and SDH （strong Diffie-Hellman） assumption. In this paper, we propose a factoring-based chameleon hash scheme which is proven to enjoy all advantages of the previous schemes. In order to support it, we propose a variant Rabin signature scheme which is proven secure against a new type of attack in the random oracle model.展开更多
