Privacy concerns
This tool only transmits the first 5 characters of the SHA-1 hash of your passwords. You can read more about that here.
Troubleshooting
If keepassxc-cli
is named something else on your installation of KeepassXC, specify the full path by providing the --keepassxc-cli
flag, like: keepassxc_pwned --keepassxc-cli "$(which keepassxc.cli)" ~/Documents/updated_database.kdbx
If you get the following error while using keepassxc-cli
:
dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/quazip/lib/libquazip.1.dylib
Referenced from: /usr/local/bin/keepassxc-cli
Reason: image not found
Abort trap: 6
... installing quazip
should fix that:
-
brew install quazip
(Mac) -
sudo apt install libquazip-dev
(Linux)
If keepassxc-cli
fails with an error message like "Invalid Command extract.", the command was changed in KeePassXC 2.5.0, and is now called export
. Upgrade KeePassXC to the latest version, and try again.
