A KEY-SEARCH ATTACK ON MACLAREN-MARSAGLIA SYSTEMS

The MacLaren-Marsaglia algorithm combines two pseudo-random sequence generators to form a “more random” generator. A method of attacking stream ciphers which use this algorithm is described. It operates by searching for the key to one of the generators without using the other.
