    dropbear: new feature: disable-weak-ciphers
    
    Enhances dropbear with a new feature "disable-weak-ciphers", on by default.
    This feature disables all CBC, SHA1, and diffie-hellman group1 ciphers in
    the dropbear ssh server and client.
    
    Disable this feature if you need to connect to the ssh server from older
    clients.  Additional customization can be done with local_options.h as usual.
    
    Tested: On dropbear_2019.78.
    
    Upstream-Status: Inappropriate [configuration]
