Generic Construction of Certificate-Based Signature from Certificateless Signature with Provable Security

This paper studies the generic construction of certificate-based signature (CBS) from certificateless signature (CLS). This paper proposes a new generic conversion from CLS to CBS which is more intuitive, simpler, and provably secure without random oracles than the current one. To develop the security proof, we put forth one novel CLS security model which features a previously neglected but nontrivial attack and hence captures the CLS security notion more comprehensively. We show that many existing CLS schemes can be proved secure in the current model by slightly modifying its original security proof. Following this conversion, many provably secure CBS schemes can be constructed from the corresponding existing CLS schemes.
