In this paper, we analyze the protocols of Tan, Lim et al., Chen et al. and five protocols of Hölbl et al. After the analysis, we found that Tan et al.ʼs, Lim et al.ʼs and two protocols of Hölbl et al. are insecure against the impersonation attack and the man-in-the-middle attack, Chen et al.ʼs protocol cannot withstand the key-compromise impersonation attack, one protocol of Hölbl et al. is vulnerable to the insider attack, one allows an adversary to compute the private key of any user and one protocol allows her to compute the shared secret key.
► Tanʼs, Limʼs and Hölblʼs protocols are vulnerable to impersonation and mitm attack. ► Chen et al.ʼs protocol cannot withstand the key-compromise impersonation attack. ► Hölbl et al.ʼs protocol allows an adversary to compute the private key of any user. ► Hölbl et al.ʼs protocol allows an adversary to compute the shared secret key. ► Hölbl et al.ʼs protocol is vulnerable to the insider attack.
