Assuming the sender uses a decent implementation, the attacker must have
been able to modify the senders system by changing the code or the
config files.  This requires write access to the machine; with that an
attacker has thousands of ways to tap the communication.  Degrading to
the still good 3DES is an option which is even not very promising.
