[gnukeyring-discuss] [KeyringEditor PATCH] Show all records / handle truncated records

[Michael B. <m.g...@we...>]

I had the same problem with KeyringEditor v1.1 not showing any of the
records in my v4 database. I've no experience in Java or Palm
programming but from http://tinyurl.com/zassz I think KeyringEditor is
filtering dirty records where it should filter deleted records.

I've added an exception handler in Crypto.java to handle the
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException.

I think I've found another bug where KeyringEditor ignores empty
(deleted) categories and thus gets the wrong cross references to the
entries. Asume you deleted category #5. Then in the database category
#5 is the empty string and thus it is skipped. Now category #6
becomes #5 in KeyringEditor and #7 becomes #6. Any entries which have
category #6 now will show category #7.

Last I changed the CSV export format to be compatible with
Passwordmanager PWM/Pi on my Zaurus.
(http://www.pi-sync.net/html/pwm_pi.html)

This is my patch:

[gnukeyring-discuss] [KeyringEditor PATCH] Show all records / handle truncated records

[Raman G. <roc...@fa...>]

I am posting here because KeyringEditor by Markus Griessnig does not
appear to have any mailing list.

I noticed that KeyringEditor v1.1 did not show all of the records that
are in my v4 database. Viewing the source, it only showed records where
the pdbAttribute & 0xFO == 0x40. I'm not familiar with the Palm database
format, so I'm not sure why this mask is being applied and the effect of
the if statement.  However, when I remove the if statement from the
code, all of my records are displayed.

There is also another strange item whereby sometimes the entry plaintext
after decryption is truncated (i.e. the date field is less than two
bytes long). This causes an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException in
KeyringEditor when the entry in question is clicked.

Does anyone have the author's contact information so that I can contact
him about these issues?

BTW, my patch to fix both issues is attached.

Cheers,
Raman Gupta

The same for me. PalmOS 3.5 (Palm m105), keyring 1.2.3

This happens on HotSync, right?   And you're probably using
PalmOS 3.5.

Looking into the PalmOS sources this error means that the function
DmFindRecordByID is called with an invalid uniqueID.  The uniqueID
is used to identify records even if they moved in the database.  I am
not sure whether jpilot does something with the unique ids.  From the
first look it seems to be a bug in the jpilot keyring plugin or in
jpilot itself.

You can certainly do it if the PC is running Linux, jpilot (Linux
equivalent of Palm Desktop) has a keyring plugin.

I have an inkling that there may be a similar keyring plugin for Palm
Desktop but I'm not quite sure about that.

They are records that have changed since the last sync.  Once you

[will p. <wp...@ic...>]

Greetings all --
(I sent a similar note to Markus Griessnig, but not sure if I had the right
email...  -- I would greatly appreciate any insight others might have!)

I've recently come upon KeyringEditor, and it looks clean and useful!
However, I would *really* like the option to edit passwords in spreadsheet
form, and then *import* a .csv into KeyringEditor, for sync with my palm.
Since many of my passwords are in an encrypted Excel sheet on my desktop,
this would be very handy.  Has anyone found a way to (effectively) import
csv data?  Are there any plans for such a feature that you've heard of?

Some advantages I see for Keyring + KeyringEditor with csv-import:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
1.  Affords flexibility for initial data entry and ongoing data maintenance
2.  Allows others (who don't have KeyringEditor) to contribute/maintain the
password list via a spreadsheet program.  Those updates could then be simply
be imported into KeyringEditor and sync'd w/ the palm.
3.  Circumvents any need for use of non-secure (eg. outlook) conduits.  Many
password programs use Memo Pad import/export, but this is not secure.

Seems to me this would make KeyringEditor *very* versatile.

Seconds, anyone?  Other thoughts?  Thanks in advance!

That's perfect, I will look into that.

You can try upgrading to keyring-2.0-pre4.  I'm using it for some time
without problems.  It's upgrade procedure is more careful when reading
records, so it may be better in recovering the records.
Unfortunately there is no way back to keyring-1.2.3 then.

There are already some working java programs on the conduits page.

Alternatively, you can check out keyring-link from the cvs repository, see:
https://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=3D306

The modulename is keyring-link
The directory contains the C-code but there is a java directory with some=20
code to read and decrypt the pdb files.  The java code uses JCE
(Java Cryptographic Environment).  You need to write your own code to
open the database and extracts its contents though.

Use it like this:

  KeyringLibrary library =3D new net.sf.gnukeyring.decoder.PDBKeyringLibrar=
y();
  library.setFilename(new File("Keys-Gtkr.pdb"));
  library.unlock("<secret>");
  Iterator i =3D libraries.getEntries().iterator();
  while (i.hasNext()) {
     KeyringEntry entry =3D (KeyringEntry) i.next();
     System.err.println(entry.getName());
     System.out.println(entry.getField("Account"));
     System.out.println(entry.getField("Password"));
     System.out.println(entry.getField("Notes"));
     System.out.println(entry.getField("Changed"));
  }

That would be PalmOS.  I assume that some data corruption is causing

I haven't changed the password, and I'm using pilot-xfer under Linux
rather than Palm Desktop, so I don't think that's the problem.

Reading the contents of the jarfile at the above URL, it looks like
your just working at the Palm record level.  Perhaps your Java app
could be extended to decrypt the data given the password?  If so it
could probably give me more informative error messages than Keyring
can.

There is one known problem, which I currently don't fully understand. The=20
HotSync Backup seems to merge the database from the Palm with that on the
PC and apparently it can lead to a weird problem:  If the password has been
changed on the palm the old password verification hash is still kept on the
PC.  After restoring from the backup it may happen that only the old passwo=
rd=20
is accepted as valid, but that password decrypts the entries to garbage.
I'm currently testing a small java program to remove the password verificat=
ion
hash from the database, see http://gnukeyring.sf.net/keyring-recover/

Do you think this could be the problem, i.e. is keyring only accepting an
old password?

[gnukeyring-discuss] Recovering from a backup snafu

[Ian S. <iso...@ac...>]

My T2 suffered a bad crash, and I had to restore from backup.
Unfortunately, something seems to have gone awry in my keyring
database.

I can see all the records, but if I try to access one of them, Keyring
crashes.  I type in my password, and it validates (because if I have a
typo it tells me that the password is wrong), but it crashes in
"MemoryMgr.c, Line:3645, NULL handle".  I have to pin-reset at this
point.

If I install Keyring (and the libs) on freshly-hard-reset Palm, it
lets me create a new password and new records fine.  But if I restore
the Keys-Gtkr.pdb file, I get the error again.

Can someone help me go about recovering what I can out of this
database?

Thanks,
Ian

> been accessed with 1.2.3?

Yes, it should work.  If you install a new keyring version over your old
(or if you install an old Keys-Gtkr.pdb overwriting the new one), keyring
should ask on the next start, whether it should upgrade the databases
(if you say no, it quits immediately).

Thinking about it, if I remember correctly the database format hasn't chang=
ed
between 1.0 and 1.2.3, so it should be no problem at all.  In that
case it wouldn't
even need to upgrade.

However, it is not possible to merge two different keyring databases.

[gnukeyring-discuss] version compatiability

been accessed with 1.2.3?
Thanks,

[gnukeyring-discuss] Windows hotsync conduit, something to try

[Eddie M. <li...@he...>]

I've put a beta but feature complete conduit.  Release and source
can be download from.

http://www.heorot.org/wordpress/keyring.php

I'd appreciate if daring folks would give it a try and send me feedback. 
  Install and usage docs are in the release zip file.  Be sure to back 
up your keys-gtkr.pdb file first.

I'm starting to work on a gui to go a long with it, for now the command 
line tool will have to suffice.

The conduit itself is self contained, the command line tool requires a 
Java2 jre.

thanks,
Eddie
