Summary :

Recently, Lee et al. [Y. Lee, E. Kim, S. Seok, and M. Jung, A smartcard-based user authentication scheme to ensure the PFS in multi-server environments, IEICE Transactions on Communications, vol.E95-B, no.2, pp.619–622, 2012] proposed a smartcard-based user authentication scheme for multi-server environments. They claimed that their scheme could withstand various attacks and provide the perfect forward secrecy (PFS). However, in this letter, we will point out that their scheme is vulnerable to three kinds of attacks and cannot provide the PFS.
