KeePass Password Safe 1.16 – Passwort-Manager

| geschrieben von Dr. Sooom | <0k
KeePass Password Safe ist ein kleines und sehr benutzerfreundliches Programm zum Verwalten von Passwörtern. Die Passwörter werden in einer verschlüsselten Datenbank abgelegt, die nur mit einem Master-Passwort und/oder einer Schlüssel-Datei einsehbar ist. Zudem kann das Programm durch zahlreiche Plugins erweitert werden.

Changelog:
New Features:
  • Added option to use Windows' CNG/BCrypt API for key transformations (about 50% faster than the KeePass built-in key transformation code; by increasing the amount of rounds by 50%, you'll get the same waiting time as in 1.15, but the protection against dictionary and guessing attacks is raised by a factor of 1.5; option enabled by default; only Windows Vista and higher)
  • Completely new update checking system that now also supports checking for new plugin versions
  • Added warning when trying to open a KDBX file created by KeePass 2.x (with hint about how to migrate from 2.x to 1.x)
  • Added 'KeeAutoNewDbBasePath' and 'KeeAutoNewDbBaseName' configuration options (to specify the default location where the database file will be stored in mini mode)
  • Added advanced option to immediately delete TAN entries after using them
  • Added '-minimize' command line option
  • Added '-registerfileext' and '-unregisterfileext' command line options to register/unregister the KDB file association
  • File association methods are now UAC aware
  • Added check for reserved group names (like 'Backup')
  • On Windows Vista and higher, core database manager error / warning messages are displayed using modern task dialogs
  • The number of days below which entries are treated as soon to expire can now be configured (see help -> customize)
  • Plugins: added new COM interface (IKpAPI2) for the main API that allows querying whether the database is the one initially specified on the command line
  • Key provider plugin API: new key query method that supports context information

Improvements:
  • Image list handling improvements
  • When auto-locking after the specified number of seconds of inactivity, KeePass minimizes to taskbar or to tray, depending on the 'Minimize to tray instead of taskbar' option
  • Plugin versions are now displayed in a separate column in the plugins dialog
  • When trying to open a second master key dialog or auto-type entry selection dialog for a window, KeePass brings itself to the foreground instead of showing a second dialog
  • Calculation of soon to expire entries is now more precise
  • Various improvements to status bar messages
  • Improved workspace locking toolbar button tooltips
  • Installer: various minor improvements
  • Various code optimizations
  • Minor other improvements

Bugfixes:
  • Newlines of the notes field are now encoded correctly in exports when Unix mode is enabled
