There was a vulnerability in the Fiat-Shamir description of Bulletproofs (it did not explicitly hash the statement). This leads to a full soundness break of the protocol. The paper has been updated and thank you to ToB for finding and disclosing the vulnerability!

Very pleased that my paper (ia.cr/2022/377) will appear at ACNS2022. sites.google.com/di.uniroma1.it…

Congrats Akira Takahashi 🥳🥳

Known attacks on FRI when run non-interactively at 80 bits of security are feasible. This is not an academic question. It's about securing hundreds of millions of dollars of assets and a systemic risk to the rollup ecosystem. (1/3)
