Drunken Monkey Competition

A quick reminder that the main prize of the Drunken Monkey competition
remains unclaimed: our primate still holds the crate of Westvleteren
(see attached picture).

Hello,

I would like to enter the following cube attack into the drunken monkey competition (just in time for DIAC!):

We simply point out that due to the low algebraic degree of the PRIMATE S-box, a key-recovery cube attack is possible against APE with the core permutation round-reduced to 8 of its 12 rounds.

Best regards,
Brice Minaud
