Comment on id-based remote data integrity checking with data privacy preserving

Jianhong Zhang, Hongxin Meng · IOP Conference Series Materials Science and Engineering · 2017

Recently, an ID-based remote data integrity checking protocol with perfect data privacy preserving (IEEE Transactions on Information Forensics and Security, doi: 10.1109/TIFS.2016.2615853) was proposed to achieve data privacy protection and integrity checking. Unfortunately, in this letter, we demonstrate that their protocol is insecure. An active hacker can modify the stored data without being detected by the verifier in the auditing. And we also show malicious cloud server can convince the verifier that the stored data are kept intact after the outsourced data blocks are deleted. Finally, the reasons to produce such attacks are given.
