A novel key sharing fuzzy vault scheme is proposed based on the classic fuzzy vault and the Diffie-Hellman key exchange protocol. In this proposed scheme, two users cooperatively build their fuzzy vault for their shared key using their own biometrics. Either of the users can use their own biometrics to unlock the fuzzy vault with the help of the other to get their shared key without risk of disclosure of their biometrics. Thus, they can unlock the fuzzy vault cooperatively. The security of our scheme is based on the security of the classic fuzzy vault scheme, one-way hash function and the discrete logarithm problem in a given finite group.
