How Diffie-Hellman Fails in Practice: We have uncovered several weaknesses in how Diffie-Hellman key exchange has been deployed: Logjam attack against the TLS protocol. The Logjam attack allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to downgrade vulnerable TLS connections to 512-bit export-grade cryptography. This allows the attacker to read and modify any data passed over the connection. The … Continue reading The Logjam Attack
