We present a cryptanalysis of a signature scheme HIMQ-3 due to Kyung-Ah Shim et al [10], which is a submission to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) standardization process of post-quantum cryptosystems in 2017. We will show that inherent to the signing process is a leakage of information of the private key. Using this information one can forge a signature.
