LED-64 is a 64-bit block cipher proposed in CHES 2011 and suitable for the efficient implementation in constrained hardware environments such as WSN. In this paper, we propose a differential fault analysis on LED-64. In order to recover the secret key of LED-64, this attack requires only one random nibble fault and an exhaustive search of 2⁸. This work is the first known cryptanalytic result on LED-64.
