Comment (by mancha):

 Bhargavan and Leurent [https://sweet32.info/ detail] a computationally
 feasible attack on 3DES. It's probably a good time to review our
 assumptions and re-open this for further consideration.

 See [https://sweet32.info/SWEET32_CCS16.pdf SWEET32 paper] for a detailed
 technical description.
