This document summarizes and critiques the MABS-DSA protocol proposed by Zhou et al. for multicast authentication using batch verification. While MABS-DSA was intended to increase efficiency and security over other implementations, the author finds through reexamination of the arithmetic that the algorithm is actually incorrect and batch signature verification would fail almost always, even when individual packets were properly signed by an honest sender. The key issue is a flaw in protocol correctness rather than the intended security improvements.
