Statistical randomness testing plays an important role in analyzing the security
of cryptosystems. In this study, we propose a new framework of randomness test-
ing based on some properties of random mappings, focusing on TMTO attacks
against stream ciphers. Here, we present three chosen IV distinguishers namely;
(i) coverage test, (ii) ρ -test and (iii) DP-coverage test. We experimentally ob-
served some statistical deviations in the distribution of p -values in Pomaranch.
We observe that Pomaranch fails the Coverage(100,14) test with probability ap-
proximately equal to 0 . 3125 using a type I error α =0 . 01. Applying the test
anumberoftimes(
500) using the same secret key, the cipher can be distin-
guished from a random mapping.
