Abstract


Liu and Chung have proposed a secure user authentication mechanism for wireless healthcare sensor networks for granting legal participants access to the patient data, including blood pressure, heart rate, and body temperature in 2016[Computers and Electrical Engineering]. Nevertheless, we have found two obvious security problems in the login and access stages. Aside from pointing out the weakness, we have provided proper suggestions for repairing the problem.
