Related-Mode Attacks on CTR Encryption Mode

In this paper, we discuss using CTR mode, another standard encryption mode, to attack other standard encryption modes and using other standard encryption modes to attack CTR mode under the related-mode attack model. In particular, we point out that when the adversary has access to an oracle under one proper mode, then almost all other related-cipher modes, whether they are encryption modes or authentication modes or authenticated encryption modes, can be attacked with ease under the relatedmode attack model.
