kex and symmetric ciphers are configured with the crypto-policies packages.
If you run "man 5 update-crypto-policies" you will see that, in addition to OpenSSH, this can be used to remove CBC and weak key exchange from GnuTLS, OpenSSL, NSS, OpenJDK, Libkrb5, Libreswan, and libssh.
If you select the FUTURE policy shown in "man crypto-policies" you will at least remove CBC (as it is not in TLS1.2).
