Its main idea is to reduce the security to some well-defined computational assumption. The reduction process is called the security proof. In this paper, we find a flaw in the security proof of BDOP-PEKS and PEKS-STAT, present a new conclusion for the security of BDOP-PEKS, and give a security proof. The flaw in the security proof of PEKS-STAT can be fixed in the same way. Finally we conclude some steps of security proof, and emphasize that the probability is as important as the construction.展开更多
