TLDR

Check that the elliptic curve in the ECDH is supersingular.

Supersingular elliptic curves are unsafe for ECDH as they have a small embedding degree.

With embedding degree 2, implement the MOV attack and solve the dlog on a multiplicative group.

Thank you for the write up! Really glad to learn about super singular curves
