Abstract
The weakness of Woei-Jiunn Tsaur´s (see ICN 2001, p.174-83, 2001) flexible user authentication scheme for multi-server Internet services is demonstrated. We show that Tsaur´s authentication scheme is vulnerable to the off-line guessing attack, i.e. we show that the user´s additional two secret keys do not strengthen the security of Tsaur´s scheme.
