Quantum Hacking Against 256QAM Modulated Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution using Amplitude-Boosting Attack
We report the amplitude-boosting attack against 256QAM continuous-variable quantum key distribution system, which could lead to an inflated estimation of secret key rate by communication parties, thereby compromising the security of practical system.
