The redactability is particularly important for blockchains applied in IIoT with valuable or sensitive activities such as financial IoT or energy-trading IoT. Huang et al. proposed a threshold chameleon hash (TCH) scheme and then constructed an accountable-and-sanitizable chameleon signature scheme based on TCH. These two primitives are further used as fundamental modules to build an RCB, which empowers IIoT devices to operate the blockchain in a controllable way. However, our paper shows that Huang et al.\u2019s RCB suffers from a security problem that weakens the crucial redactability. Specifically, we find out that if a transaction in a given block is legally redacted by all authorized sensors who collectively hold the private redacting key, anyone (without any private information) can further redact this redacted transaction and delete any transaction within this redacted block and, meanwhile, any sensor user with a private signing (not redacting) key can insert a forged transaction into this redacted block. We further address this threat by replacing the TCH module in Huang et al.\u2019s RCB with our designed TCH.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/comjnl\/bxab080","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,5,14]],"date-time":"2021-05-14T11:08:03Z","timestamp":1620990483000},"page":"2430-2438","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Security Analysis and Improvement of a Redactable Consortium Blockchain for Industrial Internet-of-Things"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"65","author":[{"given":"Wei","family":"Gao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Mathematics and Statistics , Ludong University, Yantai, Shandong 264025, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Liqun","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Science , University of Surrey, Surrey GU2 7XH, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chunming","family":"Rong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electronic Engineering and Computer Science , University of Stavanger, Stavanger 4036, Norway"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kaitai","family":"Liang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Electrical Engineering , Mathematics and Computer Science, Delft University of Technology, 2628 XE Delft, the Netherlands"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xianghan","family":"Zheng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Mathematics and Computer Science , Fuzhou University, Fuzhou, Fujian 350108, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jiangshan","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Information Technology , Monash University, Melbourne, VIC 3800, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"2022091610574325400_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2233","DOI":"10.1109\/TII.2014.2300753","article-title":"Internet of things in industries: a survey","volume":"10","author":"Xu","year":"2014","journal-title":"IEEE Trans.
