- Abstract
- Radio frequency identification (RFID) has received much attention both in industry and academia in recent years. To this extent, the international standards group, ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 31, is in the midst of standardization activity to define the security extension to the EPCglobal Generation 2 (Gen2) ultra high frequency (UHF) air interface protocols for secure RFID communications. In this paper, we investigate a vulnerability of an RFID mutual authentication protocol that was highlighted in a recent letter [5]. Our analysis presents that the attack on the mutual authentication protocol is just a relay operation between a legitimate reader and a legitimate tag. We also propose the threshold values of data rate between a reader and a tag based on link timing parameters of passive UHF RFID systems.
