2017-07-31 [c0a15e07c] Always use 2048 bit DH parameters for OpenSSL ephemeral
-->
<para>
Increase the size of DH parameters used for OpenSSL ephemeral DH ciphers
to 2048 bits (Heikki Linnakangas)
Increase the size of the default DH parameters used for OpenSSL
ephemeral DH ciphers to 2048 bits (Heikki Linnakangas)
</para>
<para>
The size of the compiled-in DH parameters has been increased from 1024
to 2048 bits, making DH key exchange more resistent to a brute-force
attack. However, some old SSL implementations, notably some revisions of
Java Runtime Environment version 6, will not accept DH parameters longer
than 1024 bits, and will not be able to connect over SSL. As a
work-around, you can use custom 1024-bit DH parameters, instead of the
compiled-in defaults. See <xref linkend="guc-ssl-dh-params-file"> for
information on using custom DH parameters.
