USENIX Security '23 – Three lessons from Threema: analysis of a secure messenger
Kenneth G. Paterson, Matteo Scarlata and Kien Tuong Truong, ETH Zurich
We provide a comprehensive cryptographic analysis of Threema, a Swiss-based encrypted messaging application with over 10 million users and 7,000 enterprise customers. We present seven different attacks on the protocol in three different threat models. We discuss the impact and solutions to our attacks, all of which have been responsibly disclosed and patched to Threema. Finally, we draw broader lessons for developers of secure protocols.
