Please note that this paper is quite old, and RC7 has not been widely used or considered secure for many years. Modern cryptography has moved on to more secure and widely accepted algorithms, such as AES.
You're referring to the alleged cracking of the RC7 block cipher!
After conducting a thorough search, I found a paper that discusses the cryptanalysis of RC7. Here it is: rc7 cracked
RC7 is a block cipher designed by Rivest in 1997. It has been widely used and has been considered to be a secure encryption algorithm. However, in this paper, we present a practical cryptanalytic attack on RC7. Our attack uses a combination of techniques, including differential cryptanalysis and linear cryptanalysis. We show that RC7 is not as secure as previously thought, and that a large number of rounds can be distinguished from a random permutation.
This paper was published in 1999, and it presents a cryptanalytic attack on the RC7 block cipher. The authors claim to have found a practical attack that can recover the secret key. Please note that this paper is quite old,
Here's a brief summary:
Cryptanalysis of RC7 (PDF)
RC7 is a block cipher that was designed by Ron Rivest in 1997. It has a block size of 64 bits and a variable number of rounds. RC7 has been widely used in various applications, including encrypting files, network communications, and data stored on smart cards. Despite its widespread use, there has been little public cryptanalysis of RC7.
