Abstract

Recently, Yang et al. (Quantum Inf Process 18, 74, 2019) proposed a two-party quantum key agreement protocol over a collective noisy channel. They claimed that their quantum key agreement protocol can ensure both of the participants have equal influence on the final shared key. However, this study shows that the participant who announces the permutation operation can manipulate the final shared key by himself/herself without being detected by the other. To avoid this loophole, an improvement is proposed here.
