It can be used to attack 5, 6 and 7-round FOX64 and 5-round FOX128. Our attack has a precomputation phase, but it can be obtained before attack and computed once for all. This attack on the reduced to 4-round FOX64 requires only 7 chosen plaintexts, and performs 242.8 4-round FOX64 encryptions. It could be extended to 5 （6, 7）-round FOX64 by a key exhaustive search behind the fourth round.展开更多
