Unfortunately, that does not work because it would require protocol
modifications requiring coordinated updates to both clients and
servers. Renego fix was over 12 years ago, and I still sometimes hit
servers that have not fixed that.


I think the best current practices are:

Client side:

- Do not implement DH and ECDH.
- Disable DHE entierely.

Server side:

- Do not implement RSA kex.
- Prefer ECDHE to DHE.


No idea what is the best practice DHE size to use on server side if
supported. Note that anything that does not support TLS 1.2 (since it
can not connect) or supports ECDHE (since ECDHE is preferred) is
irrelevant here. For 1024-bit, one wants custom group, for 2048-bit
one wants ffdhe2048.
