"Is this obfuscation scheme unbreakable?"

"Well.. no." said people a couple of years later.

See also (concurrent, similar flavor):

  1. Cryptanalysis of Indistinguishability Obfuscations of Circuits over GGH13

  2. Zeroizing Attacks on Indistinguishability Obfuscation over CLT13


Some interesting candidates for secure obfuscation do remain.

a) Secure Obfuscation in a Weak Multilinear Map Model

b) Preventing CLT Zeroizing Attacks on Obfuscation
