4. Specification
An additional parameter that defines the functioning of MGM mode is
the bit length S of the authentication tag, 32 <= S <= 128. The
value of S MUST be fixed for a particular protocol. The choice of
the value S involves a trade-off between message expansion and the
forgery probability.
4.1. MGM Encryption and Authentication Procedure
The MGM encryption and authentication procedure takes the following
parameters as inputs:
1. Encryption key K in V_k.
2. Initial counter nonce ICN in V_{n-1}.
3. Plaintext P, 0 <= |P| < 2^{n/2}. If |P| > 0, then P = P_1 ||
... || P*_q, P_i in V_n, for i = 1, ... , q - 1, P*_q in V_u, 1
<= u <= n. If |P| = 0, then by definition P*_q is empty, and the
q and u parameters are set as follows: q = 0, u = n.
4. Associated authenticated data A, 0 <= |A| < 2^{n/2}. If |A| > 0,
then A = A_1 || ... || A*_h, A_j in V_n, for j = 1, ... , h - 1,
A*_h in V_t, 1 <= t <= n. If |A| = 0, then by definition A*_h is
empty, and the h and t parameters are set as follows: h = 0, t =
n. The associated data is authenticated but is not encrypted.
The MGM encryption and authentication procedure outputs the following
parameters:
1. Initial counter nonce ICN.
2. Associated authenticated data A.
3. Ciphertext C in V_{|P|}.
4. Authentication tag T in V_S.

The ICN value for each message that is encrypted under the given key

data A and of the plaintext P MUST be such that 0 < |A| + |P| <
2^{n/2}.

5. Rationale
The MGM mode was originally proposed in [PDMODE].
From the operational point of view the MGM mode is designed to be
parallelizable, inverse free, online and to provide availability of
precomputations.
Parallelizability of the MGM mode is achieved due to its counter-type
structure and the usage of the multilinear function for
authentication. Indeed, both encryption blocks E_K(Y_i) and
authentication blocks H_i are produced in the counter mode manner,
Smyshlyaev, et al. Expires April 24, 2020 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft Multilinear Galois Mode (MGM) October 2019
and the multilinear function determined by H_i is parallelizable in
itself. Additionally, the counter-type structure of the mode
provides the inverse free property.
The online property means the possibility to process message even if
it is not completely received (so its length is unknown). To provide
this property the MGM mode uses blocks E_K(Y_i) and H_i which are
produced basing on two independent source blocks Y_i and Z_i.
Availability of precomputations for the MGM mode means the
possibility to calculate H_i and E_K(Y_i) even before data is
retrieved. It is holds due to again the usage of counters for
calculating them.
6. Security Considerations
The security properties of the MGM mode are based on the following:
o Different functions generating the counter values:
The functions incr_r and incr_l are chosen to minimize
intersection (if it happens) of counter values Y_i and Z_i.
o Encryption of the multilinear function output:
It allows to resist attacks based on padding and linear properties
(see [Ferg05] for details).
o Multilinear function for authentication:
It allows to resist the small subgroup attacks [Saar12].
o Encryption of the nonces (0 || ICN) and (1 || ICN):
The use of this encryption minimizes the number of plaintext/
ciphertext pairs of blocks known to an adversary. It allows to
resist attacks that need substantial amount of such material
(e.g., linear and differential cryptanalysis, side-channel
attacks).
It is crucial to the security of MGM to use unique ICN values. Using
the same ICN values for two different messages encrypted with the
same key eliminates the security properties of this mode.
7. IANA Considerations
This document does not require any IANA actions.
