An interpolation attack is a type of cryptographic attack that targets certain types of cryptographic algorithms, particularly those that involve polynomial functions or interpolation techniques. In essence, the attack exploits the mathematical properties of polynomials, particularly when an attacker can sample or query a function at various points. Here’s how an interpolation attack generally works: 1. **Function Representation**: Many cryptographic schemes use polynomials to represent secret values.
