[New-bugs-announce] [issue32858] Improve OpenSSL ECDH support

[Stefan Rüster]

New submission from Stefan Rüster <stefan.ruester at rub.de>:

Tested with OpenSSL v1.1.0g, Python does not support selection of curve Curve25519 with _ssl.ctx.set_ecdh_curve("X25519").

Additionally the DH key exchange parameters (which curve has been chosen, what DH bit size was used) are not available through any SSL or Context method.
