Two security flaws have been discovered in KeePassX 0.4.3.
Version 2.0 has a different codebase and is not affected.
- CVE-2015-8359: DLL Preloading vulnerability on Windows
The version of Qt bundled with KeePassX 0.4.3 is vulnerable to a DDL preloading attack.
This vulnerability only affects KeePassX on Windows.
If successfully exploited, arbitrary code can be executed in the context of KeePassX.
KeePassX 0.4.4 ships with Qt 4.8.7 and employs additional hardening measures.
Thanks to Trenton Ivey from SecureWorks for reporting this vulnerability to us. - CVE-2015-8378: Canceling XML export function creates export as “.xml” file
When canceling the “Export to > KeePassX XML file” function the cleartext passwords were still exported.
In this case the password database was exported as the file “.xml” in the current working directory (often $HOME or the directory of the database).
Originally reported as Debian bug #791858
KeePassX 0.4.4 fixes both vulnerabilities.
It is available as a source tarball and Windows / Mac OS X binaries: Download
The OS X bundle contains only a 64bit binary (compared to 0.4.3 which shipped as i386 and powerpc).
The fix for CVE-2015-8378 is also available as a patch: CVE-2015-8378.patch
We will still provide security support for the 0.4 series for some time but please consider updating to version 2.0 instead.

The users wiol also determine if they really want itt to recollect their password by checking or
un-checking the “remember my password” box.
Therre is an choice for the Inbox, speculate they are originally entering tthe Inbox, then I do not

option. Yahoo had its incredibly popular messenger
service that rivaled AOL Instant Messenger during the old days.
