## About KeePassXC

[KeePassXC](https://keepassxc.org) is a cross-platform community fork of

### Note about KeePassHTTP
|
|
The KeePassHTTP protocol is not a highly secure protocol.
|
|
It has a certain flaw which could allow an attacker to decrypt your passwords
|
|
should they manage to impersonate the web browser extension from a remote address.
|
|
<!--intercept communication between a KeePassHTTP server
|
|
and PassIFox/chromeIPass over a network connection -->
|
|
(See [here](https://github.com/pfn/keepasshttp/issues/258) and [here](https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/issues/147)).
|
|
|
|
To minimize the risk, KeePassXC strictly limits communication between itself
|
|
and the browser plugin to your local computer (localhost).
|
|
This makes your passwords quite safe,
|
|
but as with all open source software, use it at your own risk!
