Description

The KeePassHelper is a browser extension to provide the username and password access from the KeePass (https://keepass.info/), KeePassXC (https://keepassxc.org/), and MacPass (https://macpassapp.org/) applications within your browser. The extension adds an action button to your browser toolbar area. Pressing the button opens a panel that displays all the matching credentials for the current domain. You can ask the extension to insert the username, password, or both by pressing the action buttons. The extension also optionally submit the login form if you would like to. This extension offers a built-in OTP (One-time password) tool, so you don't need to have a separate plugin. This extension supports the following applications: 1. KeePass application with KeePassHttp installed 2. KeePassXC with a custom manifest (uses native messaging to communicate) 3. Direct read of KDBX3 or KDBX4 databases (when you cannot install a native application) 4. Any other alternatives that support HTTP communication (such as MacPass) Notes: 1. When using this extension, first make sure the login or password input box is focused on the page before opening the panel. Username and password filling occur if an input element is selected on a form. 2. It is recommended to use the extensions manager of your browser to define a custom shortcut for this extension. This way you can fill the username and password fields without using your mouse. This extension supports keyboard shortcuts for almost all the actions. 3. It is possible to generate one-time password tokens using this extension. 4. This extension optionally supports automatic logins (this feature is not yet supported on manifest v3). 4. This extension also supports native messaging communication for KeePassXC. Go to the options page to configure the extension to work with KeePassXC. 5. As of version 0.6.7, the extension supports reading the native string fields of KeePass for generating time-based passwords ("TimeOtp-Secret-Base32", "TimeOtp-Period" and "TimeOtp-Length" keys are supported) 6. If you are not using the built-in OTP feature of the KeePass application, the OTP can optionally be stored in SHA-256 encryption. This is additional password protection for your secret keys. 7. This extension supports creating and using passkeys stored as a StringField in the KeePass application.

Change Log 0.1.7: fixes http://add0n.com/keepass-helper.html#comment-3141456132 0.1.8: fixes https://github.com/belaviyo/keepass-macpass-helper/issues/1 0.1.9: fixes duplicate context-menu items are created on extension activation 0.2.0: support for Ctrl + B is added for Windows OS. The panel keeps its focus when it is open.

unfortunately since this morning the plugin does not work anymore. It ask me to "grant the access" through plugin popop, I click on Proceed but nothing happen. Can someone help me?

Doesn't work. The direct file support says that argon2 isn't implemented. The KeePassXC integration fails to interact with KeePassXC, doesn't get any credential from it and attempts to save yield something like: couldn't communicate with KeePassXC, did you grant permission (which I did).

Kind of a spamware. Will automatically add pop-ups on your computer without consent.

Most of the web doesn't match the fields for username and password. Useless.

Lately it just can't seem to remember the connection to the database and keeps asking me to confirm a new key association. It should also allow us to set the preferred database instead of just using whatever database is currently selected. It also seems to have trouble with the keyboard shortcut - it often fails and brings up a red circle with a white letter "E" on it in the toolbar that I have to click in order to get it to work.

Doesn't find the credentials unless you have the url typed in. No way to search for a credential, even though the name of it is the same as the name of the page. Only using local files because I don't want to have services running and updating the file from several machines at once. Not as good as KeyPass Tusk, that is sadly no longer being developed :-(

This appears to not had an update since Windows 95 with very horrible GUI interface. Example create database, add entries but you can't do any regex for URLs so you have to create an entry for every device regardless if its the same username and password. Not near as good as 1Password and from reviews way more vulnerable as well as KeyPass apparantly tracks your data unlike 1Password. I gave it a shot but it acts more like freeware than a professional app. With something as sensitive as passwords, I would rather have a secure solution that I'm confident with and this isn;t it.

Since latest update it is just broken. Became an update in november 2022 and now on most of the sites it can't find the forms to fill in anymore. Also in marks half the text on the site after filling in the credentials and doesn't automatically close the dialog anymore. Why did you break it tho? It was working perfectly ....

The reason for 3 stars is that for some reason, when clicking on the corresponding entry in Keepass Helper, it submits the form - and I did not find a way to adjust this behavior. Setting it in Keepass itself didn't work, so I believe that's the extension doing its work badly. If that is configurable somehow - then options page is totally unclear. I've already had several 403 responses and inability to login just because THIS stupid "feature". And I don't like pressing Alt + B each time. I want to double click and have the form just filled

This extension no longer works with the "Save a new Login Form in KeePass" feature on the Brave browser. This may be a problem with the Brave browser.

When clicked it usually does what it's supposed to but it doesn't do things reliably automatic. Neither do the hotkeys work. It's ok, but it's not good.

Has bugs: The Password (P) option does not work. When I am on a site where a password was stored, I click on the Chrome Extension icon. I see the site's entry with the username. Pressing P, or even on the button does not reveal the password that was initially set. Buggy.
