We propose a provably secure Identity-Based Signature (IBS) scheme in the multivariate quadratic (MQ) setting. Our construction utilizes the 3-pass identification scheme (IDS) and salted-UOV scheme (of Sakumoto et al. Crypto 2011, PQCrypto 2011). The main technical tool in our security reduction is a further generalization of the Forking Lemma of Bellare and Neven (CCS 2006). The forking algorithm of Bellare-Neven cannot be directly applied to our context, as it requires simulating two random oracles one of which needs to be suitably programmed to embed the challenge supplied in the problem instance. Our formulation of forking algorithm involves an encoding technique that satisfies all the requirements of the security reduction. To the best of our knowledge, the algorithm introduced here is the first formulation of forking in a nonlinear setting. This abstraction is likely of independent interest, particularly to argue security of signature schemes in the MQ-setting. © 2021, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
