Just hashing in the exchange keys is enough, and every protocol should do this, except some do not (*cough* TLS *cough*). SSH does hash the exchange keys and thus can't be attacked via small subgroups, even if implementation doesn't check. Also, It gets even worse with finite-field DH, since if arbitrary fields are allowed, there is no realistic way to check, and even if fields are fixed, there are small subgroups. -Ilari
