    * Run the AD too long test only if MBEDTLS_CCM_ALT is not defined.

    * Reduce the complexity of the timing tests. They were assuming more than the
      underlying OS actually guarantees.
+   * Ciphersuites based on 3DES now have the lowest priority by default when

+ * Remove 3DES ciphersuites by default in SSL / TLS.
+ * This flag removes the ciphersuites based on 3DES from the default list as
+ * returned by mbedtls_ssl_list_ciphersuites(). However, it is still possible
+ * to enable (some of) them with mbedtls_ssl_conf_ciphersuites() by including
+ * them explicitly.
+ *
+ * A man-in-the-browser attacker can recover authentication tokens sent through
+ * a TLS connection using a 3DES based cipher suite (see "On the Practical
+ * (In-)Security of 64-bit Block Ciphers" by Karthikeyan Bhargavan and Gaëtan
+ * Leurent, see https://sweet32.info/SWEET32_CCS16.pdf). If this attack falls
+ * in your threat model or you are unsure, then you should keep this option
+ * enabled to remove 3DES based cipher suites.
+ *
+ * Comment this macro to keep 3DES in the default ciphersuite list.
