Abstract :
In a step [1..D] cryptographic generator a selector determines which bits from a primitive shift-register´s output are sent to the final output, the maximum spacing being D. Two attacks are described, one through finding where embeddings are possible, valid for D=2 and 3, and the other through counting embeddings
