Recently, Zhu proposed the first group authentication key agreement scheme based on chaotic maps and the structure of a group is organized in an ordered chain. Thus each participant needs to establish two temporary two-party session keys with its predecessor and successor in a parallel algorithm. In order to cope with dynamic groups, the group session keys are frequently updated whenever a new member joins or a member leaves the group. Zhu claimed that the proposed scheme is secure against various attacks such as replay, man-in-the-middle, impersonation and key compromise attacks. Furthermore, Zhu extended the proposed scheme to high level security attributes such as privacy preserving, no clock synchronization problem, mutual and group authentication and perfect forward secrecy etc. However, in this paper, w
