Ivan Ristic commented on TS-3136:
---------------------------------
That's great, thanks! By the way, if ATS is currently using fixed 1024-bit DH
parameters, chances are that all its DH traffic can be passively decrypted by a
state-level attacker. This was the recent Logjam discovery. If you do decide to
stay with 1024 bits, the only reasonably safe approach is to generate
per-server DH parameters during installation. Although it's best to transition
to 2048-bit parameters, you should be aware that Java command line clients
can't handle anything above 1024 bits.
There is also a performance penalty associated with increasing DH parameters to
2048 bits, but, judging from your numbers, DHE would almost never be used.
Actually, after a closer look, it doesn't seem that you have
EDH-RSA-DES-CBC3-SHA in your proposed configuration. If you add it just before
DES-CBC3-SHA, it's possible that the clients currently using 3DES would use
this cipher suite instead.
