- From your wikipedia reference:

        "In an authenticated key-agreement protocol that uses public key
        cryptography, perfect forward secrecy (or PFS) is the property
        that ensures that a session key derived from a set of long-term
        public and private keys will not be compromised if one of the
        private keys is compromised in the future."

I assume if the attacker has the public and private keys from not just
one, but both ends, that PFS is not an obstacle.
