Query: Cryptanalysis of A Secure Remote User Authentication Scheme Using Smart
  Cards   Smart card based authentication schemes are used in various fields like
e-banking, e-commerce, wireless sensor networks, medical system and so on to
authenticate the both remote user and the application server during the
communication via internet. Recently, Karuppiah and Saravanan proposed an
authentication scheme which is based on password and one-way cryptographic hash
function. They have used a secure identity mechanism i.e., users' and server's
identity are not public. Thus, the user and the server do not send their
identity directly to each other during communications. In this paper, we have
found out that their scheme does not overcome the reply attack and also there
is a fault in the login phase, which makes their scheme is not perfect for
practical use.
