debops.dhparam
Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange is a way to securely share encryption keys publicly between two parties. It's used in TLS and SSL connections to provide Perfect Forward Secrecy. Unfortunately, the default DH parameters distributed with applications are susceptible to a downgrade attack.
The debops.dhparam
Ansible role will generate a set of strong
Diffie-Hellman parameters on the Ansible Controller, which will be preseeded on
remote hosts, and will be ready to use by other applications. A separate script
can then be used on remote hosts in the background to generate new random DH
parameters, either once or in regular intervals.
