| Popis: | Searchable symmetric encryption enables private queries over an encrypted database, but it also yields information leakages. Adversaries can exploit these leakages to launch injection attacks (Zhang et al., USENIX'16) to recover the underlying keywords from queries. The performance of the existing injection attacks is strongly dependent on the amount of leaked information or injection. In this work, we propose two new injection attacks, namely BVA and BVMA, by leveraging a binary volumetric approach. We enable adversaries to inject fewer files than the existing volumetric attacks by using the known keywords and reveal the queries by observing the volume of the query results. Our attacks can thwart well-studied defenses (e.g., threshold countermeasure, static padding) without exploiting the distribution of target queries and client databases. We evaluate the proposed attacks empirically in real-world datasets with practical queries. The results show that our attacks can obtain a high recovery rate (>80%) in the best case and a roughly 60% recovery even under a large-scale dataset with a small number of injections (<20 files). Comment: 22 pages, 19 fugures, will be published in USENIX Security 2023 |
