CVE-2015-4000Logjam — Downgrade to Export-Grade Key Exchange

A server that still offers export-grade key exchange can be talked down to it by a network attacker, who then breaks the weakened key and reads or alters the connection.

YOUR NEXT MOVE

Remove export-grade key exchange from every server, and require groups of at least 2048 bits.
