	abstract = {In 2012, {NIST} standardized {SHA}-512/224 and {SHA}-512/256, two truncated variants of {SHA}-512, in {FIPS} 180-4. These two hash functions are faster than {SHA}-224 and {SHA}-256 on 64-bit platforms, while maintaining the same hash size and claimed security level. So far, no third-party analysis of {SHA}-512/224 or {SHA}-512/256 has been published. In this work, we examine the collision resistance of step-reduced versions of {SHA}-512/224 and {SHA}-512/256 by using differential cryptanalysis in combination with sophisticated search tools. We are able to generate practical examples of free-start collisions for 44-step {SHA}-512/224 and 43-step {SHA}-512/256. Thus, the truncation performed by these variants on their larger state allows us to attack several more rounds compared to the untruncated family members. In addition, we improve upon the best published collisions for 24-step {SHA}-512 and present practical collisions for 27 steps of {SHA}-512/224, {SHA}-512/256, and {SHA}-512.},
