Mixture Differential Cryptanalysis: a New Approach to Distinguishers and Attacks on round-reduced AES

At Eurocrypt 2017 the first secret-key distinguisher for 5-round AES - based on the “multiple-of-8” property - has been presented. Although it allows to distinguish a random permutation from an AES-like one, it seems rather hard to implement a key-recovery attack different than brute-force like usin...
