Abstract
In this letter, we further analyze the security of the McEliece public-key cryptosystem according to the notions of public-key encryption security. We show that the McEliece scheme is insecure against adaptive chosen-cipherte xt attacks. In addition, we also point out that the McEliece: scheme doesn' t satisfy nonmalleability property.
