A note on the selfshrinking generator

Ekdahl, Patrik LU ; Johansson, Thomas LU orcid and Meier, Willi (2003) IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory, 2003 p.166-166
Abstract
We show that certain weak feedback polynomials allow very efficient distinguishing attacks on the selfshrinking generator. This gives a new improved attack if the generator uses a secret feedback polynomial.
