[Passwordsafe-users] Exporting file security question

[Sharon R. <sro...@um...>]

Hi:
First of all I really love this program. Thanks!

What I would like to do is export my databases at work and import them 
at home, so they will all be conveniently available.

However, when go to do the export, the dialog box includes the message,

"This operation will create an unprotected copy of ALL of the passwords 
in the database. Deleting this copy after use is *NOT* sufficient. This 
bypasses the security of the program."

If deleting the copy is not sufficient, why not, and what would be 
sufficient?

Thanks, sroushdy

[Passwordsafe-users] Announcing second BETA of PasswordSafe 3.0

[Rony S. <ro...@gm...>]

Hi,

This is to announce the second beta release of PasswordSafe 3.0.

All of the major problems uncovered in the first beta have been addressed,
except a problem with win98SE and ME, which I cannot duplicate. Most
importantly, a security implementation flaw on non-XP platforms has been
resolved.

Bugs fixed in 3.0Beta2:
=======================
[1450484] Trialing garbage in tooltip text fixed (thanks to DK).
[1462527] Uses a decent PRNG for non-XP platforms, closing key recovery
attack vulnerability.
[1446183] Export to v2 format now readable by pwsafe v2.x
[1463103] Fields in Edit Dialog are wider.
[1450486] URLs without a protocol now default to http.
[1459326, 1427642] Fixed problems with password prompt (thanks to DK)

Known Problems:
===============
[1453108] Database problems with Win98SE and ME
[] Online help has not been updated 

NOTES:
======
1. This is still a BETA release! It should NOT be used as the only tool for
storing "real" password information.
2. This release will read databases saved by previous versions of
PasswordSafe. When saving a database, make sure that the new database will
have the "psafe3" suffix. This will guarantee that your old database is not
overwritten. If you do over-write it by mistake, you can export to old
formats from this version, with no loss of data.
3. The purpose of this release is to gather feedback on bugs, on the new
features, and on other features you wish to see  implemented. Please enter
feedback via the project's summary page:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=41019&atid=429579 for bug reports,
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=41019&atid=429582 for feature
requests.

[Passwordsafe-users] Feedback on passwordsafe V3.0

[Ruud J. <ruu...@hc...>]

Hi,

Thanks for the new version, looks good to me. I'm a daily user of this
program, on my PC at home as well as mobile and I am very pleased with =
it.=20

I want to give some feedback on the new version:

The first thing I tried after I installed the new version is the =
autotype
feature. I have an account that requires a Username and Password, =
followed
by three fields that need the information about my birthday in a format =
like
DD MM YYYY. Switching between the fields can be done with tabs.
In the previous version I put in the Notes field the following string:
autotype:\u\t\p\t\15\t\02\t\1956 that gave an error within the fields =
with a
text like "error resolving windows...."?
In the new version V3 I put the string "\u\t\p\t\15\t\02\t\1956" =
(without
the quotes) in the autotype field. This results in filling the username =
and
password field correctly, but the date and the month field both get =
filled
with "\B" and the year field is filled with "\B95" (all without the =
quotes)
in stead of 15<tab>02<tab>1956.

Is it something that I do in the wrong way?
Or is this an issue that can be addressed in the next version?


Hope you can use my feedback,

Greetings,

Ruud Janssen

RE: [Passwordsafe-users] Re: [Passwordsafe-announce] Announcing PasswordSafe 2.15

[Ulrich B. <ulr...@we...>]

Yes, I have .NET installed, I need it for DriveImage 7.
Of course, it would have been nice if the .NET Framework would have been
listed as a requirement (in case the authors knew of the dependency).

Hello,

Not sure if anyone has installed Version 2.15, I've been using Version
2.14 successfully since it's last release. I was greeted with missing dll's
after installation.

I had to use a site such as http://www.dll-files.com and had to extract the
missing dll files to the \Windows\System32 file folder (at least in XP-Home
that is)

Missing files:
mfc71.dll
msvrc71.dll
msvcp71.dll

After I installed the above missing files to the WIndows System folder, the
program ran fine.

Thanks,

Aaron

Windows 2000, the other Windows XP Pro.
No missing files, no problems.

Subject: [Passwordsafe-users] Re: [Passwordsafe-announce] Announcing
PasswordSafe 2.15


Hello,

Not sure if anyone has installed Version 2.15, I've been using Version
2.14 successfully since it's last release. I was greeted with missing
dll's after installation.

I had to use a site such as http://www.dll-files.com and had to
extract the missing dll files to the \Windows\System32 file folder (at
least in XP-Home that is)

Missing files:
mfc71.dll
msvrc71.dll
msvcp71.dll

After I installed the above missing files to the WIndows System folder,
the program ran fine.

Thanks,

Aaron

[Passwordsafe-users] Announcing PasswordSafe 2.13

[Rony S. <ro...@gm...>]

 Hi,

It seems that a bug was introduced in PasswordSafe 2.12 that would result in
the application crashing when unlocking the database after minimize if a
group was expanded at the time of the lock/minimize. Release 2.13 fixes this
bug. No other features have been added.

Thanks to Nigel Pentland for his help in tracking this down.

[Passwordsafe-users] Using autotype

[Ruud J. <ruu...@hc...>]

Hi,

I am using Password safe for a considerable period now and with =
pleasure. It
works good and I trust it.
I used it without reading the instructions very well. Therefore I wasn't
using it very cleverly. I discovered today the autotype feature and =
tried it
immediately. The most login-procedures work wit hit fine. However I have =
one
account that works differently. It asks for a username, then the =
password,
followed by my birth date in 3 fields dd mm yyyy.
As you suggest in the help I created a customized string as follows =
(fictive
birthdates): /u/t/p/28/t08/t2005/t
In this case the date isn't submitted in the fields.
Is this because I don't use the feature the right way?

Can you help me with this?

Thanks in advance and greetings

Ruud Janssen

[Passwordsafe-users] Announcing PasswordSafe 2.10

[Rony S. <ro...@gm...>]

Hi,

PasswordSafe 2.10 is available for download. This release fixes some minor
problems, and adds a couple of new features, most noticibely a configurable
hotkey.

Bugs fixed in 2.10:
===================
[1123373, 1075046] Uninstall will only remove installed files, and will
delete the installation directory if and only if it's empty.
[1151575, 1151581] Don't try to unlock empty filename in OnDestroy (ASSERT
failed in debug version - potential problem in release
version)
[1076377] Entering the wrong password 3 times no longer allows you to create
an empty database with the same name.
[1108115] "Cancel" at "Safe Combination Entry" no longer opens blank
database with name of existing database.
[1145173, 947813] Main window will be visible even if resolution changes or
multiple screens used between invocations.
[1145747] The import delimiter is now changeable (Thanks to Roger Hakansson
for the patch).
[1162044] URL "Browse to" feature now documented.
[1165681] Lock file now deleted if user cancels in unlock dialog box.
[1170180] Status bar now shows correct text.

New Features for 2.10:
======================
[1078901] Ctrl+L is now a shortcut for "Browse to URL".
[1162048, 726521] Hotkey restore: A selectable hotkey combination will
restore PasswordSafe from the system tray, if minimized, or bring it to the
front, if obscured by other applications.

[Passwordsafe-users] Announcing PasswordSafe 2.09

[Rony S. <ro...@gm...>]

Hi,

PasswordSafe 2.09 is available for download. This release provides a
re-implementation of the locking mechanism which addresses many of the
problems that arose with the previous version.

Bugs fixed in 2.09:
===================
[1107971] Edit via double-click no longer crashes the application.
[1103501,1119212,1138635] Refined file lock mechanism.

New Features for 2.09:
======================
When saving a database, the previous version, if one exists, will be renamed
with the ".dat~" suffix. This provides some minimal automatic
backup.

The release may be downloaded from here:

Thanks to Frank (xformer) for helping out with the new locking mechanism.

p.s. I've left out a few minor improvements that I hoped to put in this
release in order to get it out the door quickly, as the locking feature was
causing quite a few problems. The next release should be a bit more
substantial in terms of minor bug fixes and new features.

[Passwordsafe-users] Announcing PasswordSafe 2.08

[Rony S. <ro...@gm...>]

Hi,

PasswordSafe 2.08 is available for download. This release adds support =
for
multiple and read-only access to the same database, and fixes a few =
minor
bug:

Bugs fixed in 2.08:
[1077638] The size of the help file was reduced by using graphics with =
fewer
colors.
[1082510] Improvements to Find dialog: No longer obscures parent, last
search text remembered.
[1090153] Pressing Delete in Find dialog no longer deletes an entry.
[1074014] Silly message no longer displayed upon drag&drop of a file =
onto
main window.

New Features for 2.08:
[1094005,1083950] Multiple instances of PasswordSafe can now open the =
same
database - only the first instance will be able to modify the database,
unles explicitly opened read-only.

Thanks to the passwordsafe-devel mailing list for a good discussion on
implementing the file locking mechanism.

RE: [Passwordsafe-users] decrypting the .dat file

[Dickerson, C. <Cli...@la...>]

As was mentioned before I have been using the http://sourceforge.net/projects/pwsafe/ program on Solaris and Linux. It works well but as far as I can tell doesn't support 2.0 formatted dat files. When I search for certain hostnames using pwsafe in a 2.0 dat file it just doesn't show up but open the same file in PasswordSafe and its there.

The dev log says the version in CVS supports 2.0 dat files but I haven't been able to get it to compile (do to my lack of CVS knowledge, I would guess).

I have started work on a Perl/html front end to the pwsafe program, but due to the fact that people using windows insist on upgrading the dat files to 2.0 format I've hit a brick wall. Any help would be greatly appreciated on getting the latest version of pwsafe to work from CVS.

Thanks!

Early happy New Year to every one.

Thanks for info.
I looked at the source code and I should be able to write a program to
decrypt the file, if needed. But I guess I will wait for the need to
show up.

I just want to make sure that if one day I am in a non-Windows
environment, I can retrieve my dat file from the network and run a
simple cmd line script to recover the passwords if needed.

When using PasswordSafe to generate the password, it is very unlikely
that I will even bother to remember them.

[Passwordsafe-users] Re: decrypting the .dat file - command line in non-win env

[<ma...@wo...>]

Hi

 >>>I would like to be able to decrypt the .dat file from any machine,
 >>>from the command line for instance.

I started using PWSafe some years ago in a Win-only environment, but 
have moved to *nix OSes since. I did not want to migrate all passwords, 
so I use pwsafe.sourceforge.net to access the dat files in these 
environments. Works great.

Hope this saves some time - re-inventing the wheel takes too long ...

RE: [Passwordsafe-users] decrypting the .dat file

[Rony S. <ro...@gm...>]

Hi Arnauld,

Short answer: The .dat file cannot be encrypted/decrypted all at once. A
workaround would be to export the .dat file to plain text and
encrypting/decrypting this with a program/algorithm that is available on
your target platform.

WARNING: Doing this is potentially VERY unsecure, as the decrypted data may
remain on the target machine, even after you've deleted the file.

Long answer: There's no need to guess, as the format of the .dat file is
fully documented in the files that come with the source code. Briefly, each
entry stored as a record of variable length fields. All are encrypted using
Blowfish with the same key, but each record has its own salt. 

Hope this helps.

	Cheers,

		Rony

[Passwordsafe-users] decrypting the .dat file

[Arnaud S. <arn...@gm...>]

Hi,

I saw some previous posting on this topic but no conclusion.

I agree that decrypting the .dat file may create some security issues.
However, since PasswordSafe only runs on a windows platform, what
happens when I am travelling with no Windows box around.

I would like to be able to decrypt the .dat file from any machine,
from the command line for instance.

My guess is that the .dat file stores the passwords as ASCII, with AES
or Blowfish encryption, and maybe some salting. I just would like to
know which algorithm to use.
Once again, without the password, the only way to crack the .dat file
is to use brute force or dictionary attack.

regards,

Arnaud
