Here is KeePassXC’s response: https://keepassxc.org/blog/2023-06-20-cve-202335866
Basically some random guy with weird misconceptions about security decided this was an issue, it’s obviously not. Honestly concerning that he was able to easily get a CVE for this and even get articles about it published on some websites.
Can’t read German. What is required to perform this attack?
KeePassXC is not affected by this vulnerability.
Edit: Different issue.
CVE-2023-32784
That’s not the issue mentioned in the article. Which is
CVE-2023-35866.This is also the vulnerability that made many people delete Keepass 2 for XC many months ago so it is very strange that they make an article that sounds like it’s a new vulnerability.
Wrong vulnerability. The discovered one is CVE-2023-35866, which is still pending verification* (analysis).
This affects KeePassXC. https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-35866
