Abstract
In 2011, Kang and Fang (Commun. Theor. Phys. 55:239–243, 2011) presented a quantum direct communication protocol using single photons. This study points out a pitfall in Kang and Fang’s scheme, in which an eavesdropper can launch a measure-and-resend attack on this scheme to reveal the secret message. Furthermore, an improved scheme is proposed to avoid the attack.
