We present a special-purpose algorithm for factoring semiprimes $N = pq$ in which one prime factor satisfies $p \approx c\,(a/b)^n$ for positive integers $a, b, c, n$ with $a > b$ and $\gcd(a,b) = 1$. Given the correct parameters $(a, b)$,…

We revisit Fermat's factorization method for a positive integer $n$ that is a product of two primes $p$ and $q$. Such an integer is used as the modulus for both encryption and decryption operations of an RSA cryptosystem. The security of…

In this paper, we present attacks on three types of RSA modulus when the least significant bits of the prime factors of RSA modulus satisfy some conditions. Let $p,$ and $q$ be primes of the form $p=a^{m_1}+r_p$ and $q=b^{m_2}+r_q$…
