Logstash Lumberjack uses insecure cipher

We use Lumberjack as input in Logstash 2.4. It looks like it requires 3DES cipher. If 3DES_EDE_CBC and DESede are disabled on the JRE running Logstash, Logstash could not be started. If 3DES_EDE_CBC and DESede are disabled on the client side, SSL connection cannot be established. However, 3DES cipher is now considered not secure. (See http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2016-2183)
