It is well known that there is a one-to-one correspondence between supersingular $ j $-invariants up to the action of $ \text{Gal}(\mathbb{F}_{p^2}/\mathbb{F}_p) $ and type classes of maximal orders in $ B_{p, \infty} $ by Deuring's theorem. Interestingly, we establish a one-to-one correspondence between $ \mathbb{F}_p $-isomorphism classes of supersingular elliptic curves and primitive reduced binary quadratic forms with discriminant $ -p $ or $ -16p $. Due to this correspondence and the fact that $ \mathbb{F}_p $-isogenies between elliptic curves could be represented by quadratic forms, we show that actions of these isogenies on supersingular elliptic curves over $ \mathbb{F}_p $ are compatible with the composition of quadratic forms. Based on these results, we reduce the security of CSIDH cryptosystem to computing this correspondence explicitly.
