Abstract

Recently, Wen et al. proposed a group signature scheme based on quantum teleportation (Wen et al. 81(5):055001, 2010). In this paper, we find that it is vulnerable to the inside attack, by which all other legal members of the group can forge the signature utilizing the anti-commutative relationship between the Pauli operation Y and the encryption operation H, and the public board. Then we present an improved scheme where the eavesdrop** process after the transmission is involved to increase the security.
